thebes Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Got a flyer in the mail today an and now I'm starting to wonder what they know that I don't know. Starts of with "Considering cremation? Join Cremation Society of Virginia for a free lunch and informational seminar." The initial discussion points are somewhat logical. The Benefits of Preplanning Affordable Options and Savings but then they go onto: Eco Friendly Choices and my personal favorite: Travel and Relocation Protection Plan. Concerning the latter, I guess it means that if you are vacation in Bora Bora and drop dead, the local natives will eat the choice bits, char you up around the fire pit, and then ship the remains home in an eco friendly coconut. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I notice it was from the Neptune Society. They do burials at sea. I told my cousin that she probably wouldn’t enjoy this type of cruise. One of my former co-workers was on a boat that did burials at sea and he said most of the ashes end up blowing back on the deck and after the people leave, they just hose off the deck.

I'd rather be listed somewhere, in some database, as "a primary future candidate for resurrection" by the "We'll Figure it Out Sooner or Later Society" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigStewMan Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 i told my siblings to take me to a taxidermist, then they can just take turns having me on display at their house. They weren’t too keen on that idea, so i said just to put me on a raft, light it on fire, and push me out to sea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
