Oh, details.

There are a lot of dead eiders on the beach here, killed by the big windy blizzard the other week. Also a razorbill! And a porpoise! The porpoise corpse actually preceded the blizzard. It's going through lots of changes, very slowly. Becoming more and more Swiss cheesified. My dog is strangely uninterested. I thought he'd roll in it. Where are the turkey vultures? I would have thought they'd strip it to bare bones by now.
Several years we had a lot of dead sea turtles washing up. You don't think of the waters of New England as harboring turtles and porpoises, but apparently they do.

six months pass...
Well, perhaps they USED to, but now they're all dead.

what a bizarre thread revival.

ten years pass...

I was lead here by the Random Homework Googler Memorial thread.

Beth's discussion of the dead things on the beach seems more interesting than the entire preceding discussion of Prufrock. She was one of the good ones.
