No worries--they were not romantically "linked."
When I read this a couple of days ago I asked my wife if she would keep me on the couch and watch TV with me if I die. She declined. I shouldn't have asked because I was a little deflated by her answer.
Clear case of welfare fraud – throw the book at her.
When they say it isn't about the money...it's about the money.
Always.
This woman is eerily similar to the woman in the Terry Gilliam film Tideland... it got bad reviews, but I liked it!
"A Rose For Emily" = William Faulkner
I have a number of disgusting questions.
The postscript is that she killed him. That'll teach him to be nice to her.
I bet she asked him how she should spend his SS check.
"Honey, do you have any objection to me buying those fabulous shoes I told you about?"
(Silence).
"Thanks honey, you're the best -- the only guy who's ever been nice to me. I'll go them and show when I get home."
Giving her his Social Security checks, dead or not, is one of those transcendant acts of chivalry.
Clearly, he would have wanted it this way.

Shame on you, anti-deadist bigot.
If you've has ever had the misfortune of seeing and smelling the effects of just a few days of room temperature on a dead mammalian body, this story should lead you to want to ask some unpleasant questions... bloating... purge fluid... lividity... larvae...
Maybe she had a really, really big Ronco food dehydrator...
"He was getting to be a bit whiffy, so I gave him a good going over with the deodorant."
She wasn't by chance named "Julia", was she?
Dead guys are always the nicest. They are patient and respectful listeners, they don't hog the remote, never leave their sock laying about, and are unerringly loyal - the perfect man.

Is that true? I thought he died of natural causes.
How'd he die? Mushrooms. Gotta bad batch of mushrooms. You were married before, right? Yeah. What happened there? Mushrooms. Was that your first husband? No. Who was the first? Some guy. This is starting to sound serious what happened to the first guy? Died. Don't tell me, mushrooms. No he didn't eat no poison mushrooms. So how he die? Beat to death. What? Wouldn't eat his mushrooms.
What a stiff.
I bet the "niceness" commenced after he died.
Once upon a time, disgusting questions where asked by a judge.
Verily, oh!
Property Fairy.
Need a photo. Let's see Chip animate this one.
WTF, does she live in a freezer? How did he not decompose?
In this vale of tears you need somebody to rely on. If that body happens to be cold...it's still better than nobody.
Watching NASCAR? Disgusting.
There's often a message in an Althouse post.
Has anyone actually seen Meade lately?

He also never left the toilet seat up.
How often did he vote?

"He was the only guy who was ever nice to me."
Because everyone else could tell she was a monster.
She kept the body clean and dressed and talked to it while watching NASCAR on television.
She lapped circles around him, pulled ahead easily, never got behind, and always blew through to the winner's circle.
Wonder how long this guy was dead before the wife, you know, noticed.
It seems to me that Social Security benefits are paid by direct deposit in a bank account.
Nice story though.
A man who marries a series of five wives for 10 years each, starting at 22 will leave Social Security benefits to all of them when he dies at age 63.
And all of them, foreigners, will treat him oh so well.
Cousin, Cherry.

But That Rancid Corpse Will Never Speak, Just Sits There Rotting Away.

Just Talk to the Corpse 'Til the Law's Enforced
You've Never Heard of a Talking Corpse?
Well Listen to This:
"I am Sittin' Here Dead."
Lots of women keep guys around solely for their checks. So she stretched it out several months longer after he died, what's the big deal?
Whatever you do, do not judge her. Do not shame her. Do not shun her. She knows that those of us who work and pay taxes will give her a check. She's only doing what liberalism has conditioned her to do. Which is to expect someone else to pay her freight. It's the American way.
She's considering converting to Islam, where there's not such a stigma attached to necrophilia.
"This looks like a good place for a 'Stick Up'"
Uhhh, Chip would have to re-animate, and as good as he is...c'mon!
okay, just thought of a story for next cafe! Heh, heh, heh, he said with a Renfield kind of laugh.
Common law should entitle her to survivor benefits.
I have a co-worker that I could easily see doing exactly the same thing. :-/

Men decide far more problems by hate, love, lust, rage, sorrow, joy, hope, fear, illusion, or some other inward emotion, than by reality, authority, any legal standard, judicial precedent, or statute.

LMAO! OMG, that's so wrong... :D
Plus, he listened.
I hope her lawyer pleads insanity. After all, we have all these women down here killing people, and their lawyers always go for insanity. This lady fits the bill better than Yates or McClain.
