My son's friend work at a funeral home for awhile. He told me that when the creamate, it's not just one body, so when you get the ashes.....who know's how many other people are with you!! Gross!!

AWww, part is parts, ya know?
Besides, it's better than getting a bucket of cement mix, and then finding out DH is a mummy playing cards in a barn in GA with 4 mummy friends...
(Or did no one hear about that cremation scandal in the deep south?)
Quote:
A company was getting $ for doing cremations but the machine had broken down and they didn't bother to fix it. They gave folks dirt, rocks & cement mix in the containers. They buried some of the bodies and threw some in a pond. But some were stashed in an outbuilding around a card table and had partially mummified. It was a big sensation in Walker County, GA a few years ago. That's where I finished growing up and went to high school. I guess it was around 2001 when they busted the business, because a lady walking her dog found a body part.
I'll see if I can find a link to the story...

They wear tons of makeup and skanky clothes! I dont know about you but that is not something I want my daughter to copy. What do you all think?
My DD (college age) objected when someone gave some Bratz dolls to my grandnieces at age 3 and 5.
She said "oh look..... Whore Dolls"

I think that organ donation should be automatic unless the deceased "opted out" prior to death.

DH is getting a scented Ruffies by the curb and he'd better go on a Monday or a Tuesday early, because that's when trashday is...and I can't see letting him sit for a week....
You could toss him in our layer pen..... he'd be gone in two days. Never faint in a chicken coop.... they start with the eyes, LOL.
Im too scared to visit the deathclock. It would probably ruin the weekend for me!
