Federal lawsuit to protect woodworking

shocking revelation.

Roman Catholic Church _small_ business??????

--

Doesn't Uncle Sam categorize any business with more than 50 and fewer than 50 million a "small business" nowadays?

Sub-50's a Mom 'n Pop Shop.

Any 'organization' is going to fight to keep money in their pockets. No surprise, but sad. Next you'll need a license to scatter ashes.

Indeed. Who'd a'thunk it? At $29-50k a year, not a big enough business for me to switch careers.

Vatican = big business. Monks = small business.

It's a bit more complicated than that ... if you're interested, see...

Ahem, it seems to be one group of monks that is being threatened with prosecution here, not the whole church.

This is not the first time this has happened in Louisiana, nor is it the first state where this has happened. IIRC, the last one was Kentucky. Funerals and associated industries are recession proof and bring in a lot of cash. Turf is fiercely defended.

I'm with you there. Use all the parts possible for transplants and use the rest for science. I've got two artificial hips, and the ortho community likes to see how they wore.

I've also suggested my wife just put me in the recycling bin. In addition to the hips there is the metal in the lumbar spine and cervical spine.

Or she could compost you and put the remaining metal parts in the recycle bin when the rest of you is mulch. ;~)

Great idea, I'll pass that along!

Wouldn't that be a Pop 'n Pop shop in the caseof the Monks? Wait. That's not right either.

Monk 'n Monk shop?
