It seems Ronnie's corpse has become America's Evita
does anyone think Ronnie will rival her as a death cult? Might Andrew Lloyd Webber write a musical about him?

1. Did they "plastify" him?????

It's a newer process whereby they can perfectly preserve a body.

I wouldn't be surprised to see chachie pant, blue blazered Republicans making pilgrames to the Reagan library any more. They'll buy books inside and burn them on his grave.

9. It would certainly be like Lenin's Body
and the Busheviks are most definitely (other than basic economic philosophy) of a Bolshevik Mental Bent.

4. Will the Repukes go for the Lenin Mausoleum look?
There's a really interesting book about the subject-

Lenin's Embalmers
by Ilya Zbarsky & Samuel Hutchinson
London, Harvill 1998

5. is anyone hurling themselves on the coffin yet?
When I was in a production of Evita some people were hurlers. I wonder if the right has designated hurlers for the camera.
