    Find out who owns the nearest funeral home where you live and go check out the house they live in ;)

    Both my grandparents were cremated and then the whole family took a trip to spread the ashes in a beautiful meadow in the mountains. Much beter than a regular funeral imo.

    A punk rock type of funeral might be good for me where the garbage men carry me out in a can.

    BTW, I heard that the pallbearers at Col. Sanders' funeral were known as the Bucket Brigade.

    The only way I would want to be buried, is if I make it to the point in life where I own my land. I'm not talking about just owning a house, I'm talking about a chunk of land in the mountains somewhere that I've turned into a family ranch....I want to be burried in that land. But not in an extravagant casket, perhaps a simple pine box...or wrapped in sheets. If I don't have the pleasure of making it that far in this world, then I want to be cremated and spread in a beautiful place. I've thought about somewhere near Red Rocks Amplitheater in the past.....but I don't know

    Unfortunately, what you're talking about isn't legal in most states. They want to force everybody to do it the traditional way - and spend a shitload of cash.

    The funeral home can pay somebody, I guess. I don't care. Can't their employees do it?

    I have never liked the idea of being burnt to ashes, but then if I was I could be scattered somewhere beautiful. Perhaps cremate half of me and bury the rest :rolleyes:

    I guess it would be either family, or my guy and our biker friends who'd carry me.

    That's frightening.

    No, I'll be buried on a hill, in a shrine and people can come and pay their respects whilst on a day out.

    I want to donate my body to science for sure. I have a neurological disorder (epilepsy) so I'm hoping that I could be of some help. I've heard that they get your ashes back to your family members within three-five weeks. They even pay for the transportation and cremation and everything. Sounds like a win-win situation to me, heh.
