Renter Leaves Human Skull In Apt.

Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio, a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy. And he’s so full of jest and fancy some renter left his skull in an apartment.

While cleaning out an apartment on South 49th Street — A-ha! A Penn grad student, perhaps? — a Campus Apartments manager found the skull sitting on a counter. One might have simply thought it was a message to the landlord from disaffected tenants, but the manager decided to call the police. The medical examiner’s office confirmed that it was, in fact, a human skull.

Did a student just take the skull from a school building somewhere, like my freshman year roommate did? Perhaps. The Daily Summer Pennsylvanian reports it’s unclear if a crime has been committed, but Campus Apartments did confirm the tenants were college students. I guess if it is Penn kids, it could be a case of Econ curve competition turned deadly.

    I applaud your use of a Derek Jacobi pic.

    Anyone else excited that I was able to quote the next two clauses after “Horatio” completely from memory? Oh. Well, I am.

    It would’ve been better if somebody had left photos of Alycia Lane in a bikini in an apartment… or if dmac had posted them on his blog! I curse the day you were born, dmac!
