The heart needs to be sent to the Smithsonian so it can rest besides John Dillinger's cock.

No, no! It should be placed in a Tupperware (tm) container and carried around the country in the trunk of a car, like Einstein's brain!

The Maryhill Museum in Goldendale, WA has an extensive collection of Queen Marie's personal property as she was a good friend of Sam Hill, the orginal owner of the building and museum.

When she visited Seattle she stayed at Sam Hill's giant concrete pile at the corner of Harvard & Highland on Capitol Hill. I once talked to a very old man at the Joe Bar who remembered her vividly.

@ 1&2:

No, no- it needs to be shipped to Ari Spool so it can have its photo taken in various locales around Seattle...

I also like this Dorothy Parker poem:

Razors pain you.
Rivers are damp.
Acids stain you,
And drugs cause cramp.
Guns aren't lawful,
Nooses give,
Gas smells awful--
You might as well live.
