Second rant of the day, but not the last because Culkin is next.

So apparently Blockbuster recently started throttling or at least started admitting it, so now what the hell?

Now they both suck. I went into Blockbuster to use the free coupons they gave me and our Blockbuster only rents out like 2 movies these days, because mostly they're the pre-owned DVD black market now. In the company's defense, this is the smallest Blockbuster I've ever been in.

It's on Central Florida Parkway, just a quarter mile down from the Ritz Carlton that I just saw on Primetime because they dissect human corpses in the ballrooms. No shit.

From Primetime's Web story...

Registered nurse Marion Ulloa observed the conditions inside a seminar in Florida, where four dead bodies were being used as teaching tools for doctors, in the public ballroom of a popular hotel.

"I don't know what I was expecting, but I wasn't expecting to see the whole entire cadaver laying there as if it were in a morgue. Pull out a slab, just like that," Ulloa said.

And she said infection control seemed a bit primitive.

"We had gloves, but we didn't have a sink in the room, we didn't have soap in the room or hand cleansers and that would have made me feel more comfortable," Ulloa said.

In fact, Ulloa says one of the bodies was leaking onto the plastic underneath its gurney.

"There was a puddle on the floor next to it and … it was dripping from the hand of the person," she said. "I don't know, that kind of didn't give me a good feeling. I just wish they were done in the proper venue — possibly in a morgue, or an autopsy table."

Olson said that dissecting cadavers in a public hotel ballroom shouldn't be happening. There could be a risk, he said, of transmitting blood-borne pathogens.

Now in the Ritz Carlton's defense, Primetime wouldn't reveal which Florida Hotel their footage was from but I found the website advertising the event that matched the one they showed on the show and it was there at the Ritz Carlton. Either way, if it wasn't, they're still dissecting corpses, just different corpses than the ones we saw, there.

Seriously, they showed these corpses without a care in the world too, it was horrifying. They even blur that shit out on The First 48, but not Primetime.

Elise went to a Sweet 16 party in one of those ballrooms!
