Exhumation of Parley Pratt
Using precise archeological tools, workers near Van Buren, Ark., have carefully begun exhuming the remains of early Mormon leader Parley Parker Pratt. Workers hope to uncover the Mormon martyr's bones this week.

Pratt's remains will be returned to Utah for reburial next to four of his 12 wives.

"We're being very careful," said Robert Grow, Pratt's great-great-great grandson. "We're taking photos and marking everything we find."

The estranged husband of Pratt's 12th wife stabbed Pratt twice in the chest and shot him in the neck after tracking the couple down in 1856. Pratt lived long enough to ask to be buried in Utah.

Stabbed twice and shot in the neck, and still lived long enough to ask to be buried in Utah.

To bad Parley and Rasputin couldent have lived long enough to have fought one another in the UFC.

Rasputin would have kicked his ass then went on to take over the church.

Russians do have a reputation of being bad dudes. Just look at Fedor.

Who could we compare Parley to? He did have wrestling experience, especially since he hung around Joseph all the time. Joseph was known to have broken some guys legs wrestlign around with them.

He was known more for busting cherries on pre-pubescent teen girls.

I'd pay big bucks to piss down the bullet hole in his neck.

I am not certain if this is your crassest statement ever. How does this compare to some of the others?

Pratt was a piece of human feces. He fully deserved the brutal death that befell him.

Further, I would pay even more money to play kick ball with his skull.
