things you find on a saturday morning

Guy in Canada found a mummified baby in the wall of a house he was renovating, been there since 1925. So now what do you do? Close up the wall and never speak of it again or do you bring people through going “that’s the laundry, kitchen over there and oh that’s where we found the baby... no, they took it away. Good thing it wasn’t load bearing”

Woman in Arizona bought a mystery box at some auction and discovered it contained a human skull. Whoever packed those mystery boxes was really good at it. She was probably expecting a cookie jar.

Meanwhile another woman did get a cookie jar. Sold to her by a woman for 50 cents, who “didn’t realize” it had her husband’s previous wife’s ashes in it. It was a giant frog.

It’s like we’re living in a Tim Burton movie.

Where does one pick up a human skull? Is there a factory I don't know about, where they just sell them to any ol' Joe? Or maybe an internet store? www.humanskullsforsale.com?

Probably located offshore.

Some kid found a human foot in a sneaker on a local beach over the weekend. That adds a whole new level to the "one random shoe abandoned at an intersection" wierdness. I'm just glad it wasn't a pair of underpants.

What I think is odd is that the mummified baby story notes what paramedics at the scene thought.

Paramedics?

should have called the museum, or Brenden Fraser

I wonder who the mummy's father was
