Morbid Mortality Monthly - December

2006 will not be remembered as one of the best Christmases for the Hughes family. 29-year-old Londoner James Hughes was visiting his brother's flat in Bristol, for the holidays. James had been out drinking with his brother Andy earlier in the evening, but minutes after returning to the flat he ran to an open window and dived head first out of a first-floor window, falling about 20 feet to the ground. James died from severe head and chest injuries, taking the reason for his deadly leap with him to the grave.

Production Update: Back On Track

As you have no doubt seen, production on And Several Butchers' Aprons has started to slide - something we are truly sorry about. To misquote Douglas Adams: "I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be." In other words, the detour taken will be beneficial to the production in the long run. </CRYPTIC>

So from here the plan is simple: finish the first webisode. We have been editing it and will get it finished and online soon - and by soon we mean before the end of the Mayan calendar! The very least we can do is show you another sketch... so here it is:

Morbid Mortality Monthly - October

Hungarian painter, poet and sculptor Mihaly Gubis was killed when his one and a half ton sculpture fell on him. Gubis had been loading the 24ft high "Woman With Four Breasts" sculpture onto the back of a lorry in Mundelsheim, Germany, on 17 May 2006. At one point during the attempt to transport the sculpture to an exhibition, the huge piece of art lurched violently to one side, leading Mihaly to try and push it back with his body. However the 58-year-old artist only succeeded in throwing it further off balance, causing it to fall onto him. He was crushed and died instantly.
