the way I figured it, with the time it takes me to finish my projects, i'll be 100+ before I finish the darn thing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)

hmmmm, now a carbon fiber casket would be cool, i guess I'd have to check with the place our plots are at to make sure they'd take it......

Mike, we're still young. By the time we're dead carbon will be old-school. The kids at the funeral will laugh because to them it'll look like wood panelling looks to us. Go with transparent aluminum. Then you can grim ...er I mean grin at the crowd.

-Ben M.

ps - transparent aluminum is actually a reality now - just very very expensive and hard to make. Check this out.

Cremation, if they have to put me into a container to do that, simple wood would be fine. No need for an urn either, the ashes are to be tossed. I've cheated death once so far so let's keep it simple and move on.

LMAO Rich

Pine boxes I looked at cost around 6 grand, the mahogany was $10k+, and the rosewood was veneer on oak, for around $17k.

541,606 posts? Do you own a car? Must have low mileage with all the time you spend on line. You sure you're not in the plot, you need a life. You must be an insomniac like me.

Funny you should mention Otto. He straightened out my car after I bought it. It sat in some guy's garage for thirteen years.

I already own one - I'm gonna be buried in my 14 (actually, already am). That way, we can disintegrate together (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Otto, who's Otto?
