I read the headline five times thinking it was from the Onion. Nope. Yahoo news:

As violence falls in Iraq, cemetery workers feel the pinch
NAJAF, Iraq — At what’s believed to be the world’s largest cemetery, where Shiite Muslims aspire to be buried and millions already have been, business isn’t good. A drop in violence around Iraq has cut burials in the huge Wadi al Salam cemetery here by at least one-third in the past six months, and that’s cut the pay of thousands of workers who make their living digging graves, washing corpses or selling burial shrouds.

Things over there are really going to hell all right. Next thing you know the last remaining Iraqi baby-crutch factory will be forced to cut back to only one shift.
