I think you can bypass embalming if you get a leakproof concrete grave liner. Most of the cemeteries are not within the city limits, though... only a couple of really old ones, like Lone Fir.

I'd like to be cremated, then placed in an urn. Every time one of my nearest-and-dearest takes a trip to someplace really cool, they should take a quarter-cup of my ashes to be spread at a location of their choosing during their trip. Places I have never been to, in life.

When "That Time" comes, I can (per my user name) make you a great deal on a hole...

I know I've told this story before, but for those who haven't heard it, here it is for your bored pleasure:

I was telling my family that I want a big party when I die. I want an open bar, and people to have fun. If they feel like it, they can go to a podium and tell a story of something funny or stupid I said or did, and I want lots of laughter.

My older brother responded "now that we have it all planned, let's set a date!"

Grrrr. He really does love me.

I'd like to return to the ocean. A headstone might be considerate for those who want a marker to visit, but I'd like it gone after, say, 50 years. I made my own headstone HERE.

Oh fun!

I can make you a better deal on a-hole.

That struck me as funny because that hole was made by a machine that digs trees up. If they plunk you in and put the tree back, you'd be literally under a tree.

Shawnee123 · 04-02-2009, 11:32 AM

That was kind of an Everyhole, for effect and illustration.

I'm usually out of my tree.

Take whatever parts are useful and burn the leftovers. Scatter the ashes which you may pretend are actually mine somewhere that looks like this: (Sawtooth Mountains in Idaho)

TheMercenary · 04-02-2009, 07:27 PM

Scatter here please, after burning of course. Right after the pre-match brief.

Don't they get upset when you toss someone's ashes off the side of the car at Disneyworld?

"To respond to this growing problem, Disneyland's custodial department recently had to purchase special vacuums with very sophisticated HEPA filters that can capture the gritty ash of human remains while also capturing the small bone fragments that can also be present after cremation. The Cast Members who work in Attractions know the code words when calling the custodial hotline, and they tell the custodial dispatcher that they need a 'HEPA Cleanup' as soon as possible."

It left me with a very eerie feeling.
