This is the sort of thing I look out for, as I'm sure there's a story here. All it needs is a bit of imagination to see where it leads.

Scrapbook snippet
While reading the newspapers this morning, I came across a story about plans to recover artificial joints from the ashes of cremated bodies to sell them. Macabre indeed. The article continued as to whether such an act would be legal, posing the question: If hip joints or orthopaedic implants are placed in there, who owns them?

Hi hp,
Glad to see those Google ads work:)
So why wait till Grandpa dies? ;)I think the title 'Inheritance' has a nice ring to it, and when I get time, I may actually write it.
I love finding those strange little snippets of news. Usually, they're slotted in between bigger, more important items, but there's usually one or two, especially in the weekend newspapers here in the UK.
Your short piece reminded me of a similar story I once read (can't remember for the life of me what it was though). I'm glad I inspired your creative juices. When I get around to penning a piece about artificial joints, I'll be sure to let you read it.
