Pee Wee Russell's Sister-in-Law Is Frozen

[paul secor]

I was reading an article on Robert C. W. Ettinger, one of the founders (perhaps the founder) of the cryonics movement. Long story short, cryonics deals with the freezing of a dead body in the hope that scientists in the future will defrost it and be able to make it young and vital again. Ettinger's mother's and two wives' bodies have been frozen and he plans to have his body frozen when he dies.

Toward the end of the article, Ettinger is showing the reporter photos from his mother's scrapbooks. At one point he remarks, "That's Pee Wee Russell. He married my mother's sister, Mary." When I read that, all I could think of was that Pee Wee's body didn't have to be frozen. It was already pickled.

I have long been under the impression that Wynton M is frozen—or does he just play that way?
