    Think of all the people who are murdered during a massive hurricane. Who's going to be concerned over a few extra bodies found in the ocean?

      Don't get many hurricanes where i live, a tornado or two if we are unlucky.

        I've noticed that problems come in bunches because
        in solving the first it merely leads to the second, and so on.
        You start by needing to fix something, so you get out the
        pliers, but something needs cutting so you get out the
        Stanley knife, not enough so wire cutters needed, then
        the hacksaw, then a slotted screwdriver which you can't
        find, etc until the bench is full of tools. So, it's best not
        to start in the first place. You can do without that thing
        that needed fixing anyway.
        A one time neighbour of mine really knew how to fix things.
        He's pick up the phone, call someone who'd come and fix it.

          Not too successful in finding someone to work, save for the Amish that I know.

            You may have to drag the bodies to the coast.

              Once in a while I'll have a "run of bad luck". One thing and then four others. It doesn't seem natural for five things to go wrong one after another. I think it might be some secret government experiment to see what it takes to drive someone crazy.
              If I should die before I wake...great,a little more sleep.

                How true! Example: my kitchen was plugged up. Called a plumber. Problem solved!
