Things to do when you're dead
I recently came across this very peculiar list of things to do when you're dead. For example:
1. Become a barrier reef, a company called Eternal Reefs mixes your cremated ashes with environmentally friendly concrete and drops you in the ocean...soon enough you'll be home to turtles and fish. Prices vary from about $900 to $5,000.
2. To the moon Alice! A company called Celestis will send between one and seven grams of you into space or to the moon, you pick. Don't have the cost on that one.
3. Shine on you crazy diamond. LifeGem takes carbon from your ashes and turns it/you into a flawless diamond, well usually about 50, one carat stones. Each stone costs about $14,000.00
4. There's plenty more but this is the last one. Real finger painting. Eternally Yours Everlasting Art will paint a canvas and sprinkle some of your ashes on the artwork, sealing it afterward.
I think I'm completely depressed now, I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
On a lighter note, we welcome a new/old friend to blogger, his blog is called Gomez Looks Thoughtful. Also check out A Bowl of Cherries, another new blogger friend. By the way, if you have linked to us and we haven't linked back, please let us know about the oversight, much appologies and we'd be happy to create a banner link in return.
Peace.

Do people still cyrogenically freeze their heads? Maybe it was a phase.

While you're on this research kick, find out how I can be re-animated as a zombie. I don't care how it's done. Voodoo, cybernetics, nanotechnology, whatever. If I can't be one of the walking dead, then dying just isn't worth the effort.
Thanks for the shout out by the way.

I know you can't take it with you when you leave this planet, but it sure would be nice to have some of my ballistics to keep me company for eternity.

Did you see the Nip/Tuck episode where they put the ashes in a boob implant? People are freaks, man. And I should know.
