Great Funeral for Writers.

There has to be a way to turn the human body into paper, or some other substance that can be used to write upon. If so, then we, as writers, could ask that our bodies be turned into such a substance and be used in one of the following ways: Publish our own work on it Publish some of our favorite...

A Fiery, Spectacular Ending

We've all see the action movies with exploding vehicles, fiery crashes, etc. For the adventurous among us, why not have a facility where we can have a spectacular end to our bodies? A course could be set up with radio-controlled cars, specially built cars designed to be entirely consumed by flames... Sign in to see full entry.

Foundational Funeral

And take this literally. The Mafia proportedly invented aspects of this, but, if it's a good idea...... If you are building a new home or business, put your deceased into the cement. This way they are a part of your lives, the lives of those loved by the deceased. Of course, we still have to work... Sign in to see full entry.

Gifts for the Dead . . .

I'm sure some society somewhere, somewhen has done this, but so should we. When at a funeral, all participants should bring a small trinket, a meaningful reminder of their relationship with the deceased, to put into the casket to be burried, or burned, with the corpse. Perhaps, people could even do... Sign in to see full entry.

After seeing the movie . . .

The Final Cut, starring Robin Williams, I got to thinking that "Rememorial" would be a good idea. The idea of implants would not be desireable, as was done in the movie, but prior to the funeral services, a group of people who knew the deceased could collaborate with a "cutter" of sorts to produce...

A Denim Funeral

Denim, jeans, whatever you want to call it... Everyone at a denim funeral wears denim, including the corpse. Sure, if you must wear a jacket and tie, do so, but make sure both are of denim! Why? Glad you asked... Denim is comfortable and it relaxes people who wear it. And, at a funeral, relaxation... Sign in to see full entry.

My Funeral . . . . .

Although I am in no hurry to die, this is how I envision my ideal funeral. Keep in mind, this is for me; your plans for your own funeral may be different! The setting would be in some natural place, ideally in a forest or a mountain valley meadow, preferably a privately owned piece of land rather... Sign in to see full entry.

A Solomon Solution . . . .

Since the Schiavos and the Schindlers cannot agree on funeral arrangements, why not saw Terri's body in half, one half to be buried with the Schindler's family plans, and the other half to be cremated as Michael Schiavo wanted. Would that not keep everyone happy? Sign in to see full entry.

An Easter Funeral . . . . .

Perhaps just this one day, one dead person could be ressurrected, as a token of the season. Short of that, perhaps we could put chocolates and marshmallow bunnies for the kids to take out of the casket, a final gift of sweets from the deceased. Of course, all attending a funeral on Easter Day should... Sign in to see full entry.

I was wondering . . . . .

If one goes to the funeral of a deaf friend or relative, should one sign their farewells to the corpse? Just another of my burning questions regarding propriety at a funeral. Sign in to see full entry.
