Conversely, remains committed to 600 ft or more shouldn't require weighting. This is why some folks who drown in Tahoe (avg depth 1,000 ft) are never recovered. Off my local coast, because as recently as the Pleistocene the coastline was a full 30 miles farther out to sea, you don't reach the proper depth until you're past the Farallones. Most murderers don't account for the distance to the continental slope, and the ones who do, we obviously hear less about. It's pretty hard to reach a 600 ft depth in a freshwater body of water, which is probably why most people automatically think the Mafia way is best practice.
You've gathered a rather disturbing amount of facts about this. But have you accounted for the different buoyancy of salt and fresh water? And what the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow is?

No matter. He's convinced me. Atticus is now my go-to guy for disposing of bodies in water.

Do you think this grew out of his fascination with his excretory functions?

Isn't this where Hank should tell us that technically an asshole is a void and you can't eat a void?

I hope you were bored and reading Page 2 today.

Otherwise you have a disturbing memory for bad '80s marketing.

This purported "fascination" is one of several great hoaxes you have pulled against these Boards. An obsession does not imply admiration or enjoyment. We might say that Salk was "fascinated" with polio or Patton, Nazi armored cavalry, but would we conclude that they would like to be around these things and see their effects on people? I say, "no."

I didn't say yours.

All I really wanted was for someone to get, at least mock, offended, so that I could ask if they thought the post was in bad taste. <rim shot>

I'm offended that I got lumped into some category with a johnny-come-lately-carpetbagging monkey. There can only be one.

You have given way too much thought to this. Obsessed much?
