If this shit ever ends up on my coffin, someones ass is gonna be haunted...

If it is cardboard why isn’t it cheaper?
To ensure that we passed industry standards a specialised construction of cardboard is used to make LifeArt coffins. Whilst this makes Enviroboard coffins cheaper in terms of the cost to the environment, the manufacturing costs mean that LifeArt coffins are priced somewhere in the range of the traditional value coffins.


they are so full of shit.....

That was Shawn Kierins coffin. I kust kept it @ my house for a few years because he lived @ home @ the time. His grandmother lived with them and went into the basement one day and saw it. Needless to say, she thought it was for her! So, we moved it to my house. He eventually took it back......yeah, alot of folks slept in that coffin. Including the recient "Troll".....that was his bed for about a year back in 92....... and BTW, I really had nothing to do with all that. I wont go into it, but I am really embarassed and discusted with the whole thing.....and I dont want to talk about it!

In that case, i'll just make my own fucking coffin out've pizza boxes...

It doesn't mean that they are full of shit...it means that hippies will pay, and they have to pay their employees.

Found something better!

I have always loved tthis guys work BTW.

Going along with my "cyber fantasy" of being an anthropologist who works for UT, let me encourage you all to donate your bodies to UT.

Your body can decompose in the woods by the river...naturally and then become part of the countries largest skeletal collection.

I have seen the bodies that accidently got embalmed before going to the facility and let me tell you, you don't want to be embalmed. Its so disgusting and pointless.

Those are cool, thanks for sharing. Although the older I get the more I think I wanna just be cremated when I go. Plantin' dead folks takes up alot of land. The body farm thing is very tempting, but family needs something or somewhere to pay respects & shite. I know it was good for me to have a place to go and "visit" my dead relatives after they passed. I'm still leaning toward the fire, though.

Whoever dies first my husband or I will be cremated. That person will go into the urn first. Then him or I will be cremated and put in the urn ,when the other one passes away. The urn will be welded shut and placed on a monument like headstone so loved ones can visit and pay their respect. Or we could have our ashes strewn across the ocean.

I think that I will have my ashes ground up and put into the food at my wake, and then snorted off the table.

I think i will have my ashes made into gingerbread mix.

Run run as fast as you can,
he's gonna kill you, it's theGingerdead man.
