Man Dead On Futon For Nearly 10 Years Before Family Notices Father Found Lying Dead On Futon March 9, 2005
TOKYO -- A Japanese man and his two sisters were worried something might be wrong with dad. And they were right.
The old man had been dead for nearly a decade. Police questioned the three elderly siblings Tuesday, after the decomposing body of their father was found lying on a futon bed in the family's home.
Police said the man's children thought he was still alive, but became worried lately and consulted a relative. Police said judging by the condition of the remains, the father could have died as long as 10 years ago.

Poor old guy. Imagine having 3 retarded children.
I don't know. Wonder if the guy was cashing his pension checks? Maybe they ain't so dumb...

They liked Dad. He was easy to be with. And didn't eat much.

Do a search using this headline and see how many times it's been posted.
And, are you sure he's still dead? This is the Internet, after all.

Noticed your www.vandelay.com tagline and I'm wondering. Is that an importing or exporting company?
