                    chocolate
                
                my mom said she wanted us to smear a little chocolate on her lips when she died.  When she died, I almost did, but lost my nerve.  Wish I would have.  
  I want jazz played, poetry (mine of course), saxophone, and one traditional hymn, black t shirts, the beat look
  and tons of chocolate

                    Cremation . . . 
                
                 , the blog is a creation of the mind to explore things dealing with death.  Most of the ideas just kind of pop out from time to time.  As for me, it really won't matter what happens to my body after death; I'll opt for the cheapest and simplest to leave more for my estate!

                There are a whole lot of connotations associated with cremating materialistic wealth objects together with the deceased. What else do you believe in? I don't buy that thread about burning Canadian bacon. Unless you absolutely abhorr C.bacon and want to make excuses to burn one last lot of it away with your very last will.

                    I was wondering what beed was!
                
                
   That would be a way to use up the allegedly bad beef, rather than just let it go to waste . . . .

                Oops, make that "beef" farmers. Fingers slipped.

                For me it would be beef jerky. It already has a smoked flavor and would support beed farmers who've been hurt by Mad Cow.

                    Yes . . . .
                
                And such a cremation would draw more people, as well!  Perhaps those on their way to IHOP would be confused and show up at the crematory!

                    LOL!
                
                I worry a bit when I think that my step-father might have been making another one of his silly crass remarked when we requested cremation.
