Okay, lots of legs, trilobite, however you spell it. No legs, girlfriend. Get a picture of a trilobite, your GF, and practice. Check back with us in a couple of days. ---

> [@cmkeller](#): > > I’m guessing that he’ll have a nice, tasteful obelisk for a monument right next to hers. The heck of it is that obelisks were once quite common, at least here in Kansas, as tombstones. There are several in the old country cemetery(started in 1871) where I will be buried, and I’d considered commissioning one of that style for myself. I will be buried alongside relatives but others might not know that, as they are all on my mother’s side and have different surnames than my own. One of the obelisks is for a young man who died at the age of sixteen. His name was R. E. Lee _Surname_. Not so coincidental his father is the only Confederate veteran in the cemetery. The young man would not have been a relation but his sister was a relation by marriage, the wife of my great-uncle. The following is a link to a picture of my great-great-great grandmother’s tombstone, an obelisk, although the whole thing doesn’t show. > **[Elizabeth Green Connell (1815-1899) - Find a...](https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/13274772/elizabeth-connell)** > > dau of William & Ann Green -m-01 Jun 1837, Ripley Co, Indiana ---

> [@](#): > > …likeness of her vulva engraved on her tombstone **using photos taken specifically for that purpose**. Bolding mine. WTF? Who in the hell took those pics? And when? When she was on her deathbed? When she was 20? Did they update the pics every year on the off chance that she’d croak before the next round of Sears Portraits were taken? ---
