Or people with rare disorders, Saltah'na. Healthy cadavers of various ages and genders can be used for all manner of things. But you can't use them to study diseases they didn't have.

Yeah, they're not for anatomy studies. They're for seeing, for example, what a smoker's lung looks like, or what a giant fatal tumor of the right asscheek looks like.

$5840 Mostly it jacked up from that painkiller question.
I have more money than that in my checking account- can I buy a better body? I'll swap my brain into Omega's body for the election and scare all his friends by becoming an Obama voulenteer.
Awww yeah.

Seriously, I don't even remember my parents ever having more than $1,000 for more than a few days...maybe I'm just poor white trash...

Only because I took a loan off my 401K to get a new (hoopty) car, new computer and catch up on medical bills... Also, drugs, hookers and assorted sundry illicit expenses that must be addressed posthaste.
I'm hoping to keep some rainy day money once all the dust settles.

Heeey now- we've got over 10 large between us! Party Time!
I'm down to $5500 after buying a crazy computer and paying off a bunch-o-bills, rent and blowing a bunch on DVD's Full Metal Alchemist. Iron Man, Dark City (director's edition), etc. And some barbecue.
Still looking for a cheap car though.

$4675. That wouldn't cover my tuition fees!
Plus I could beat 25 five year olds in a fight, could survive being lost on the moon and can name 106 countries in five minutes (but only spell 105 it seems).

$4675 wouldn't cover my NEED for polystyrene and Tenax-7.
Of course I don't build in 1/2500th either

$5125 is barely half my budget for this picture. I really need to get some more bodies in on this. (And here I was thinking vegetarianism was going to be worth something in my later years.)

I just got ten 24x36 styrene sheets from the signshop manager at work- it's like blank canvas waiting for paint. Got two lbs. of Aves Apoxie Sculpt too....time to scratchbuild some ships! I'm thinking of a cruiser version of Rev's Surak....I have nacelles half done allready.
