I heard a story about some Irishmen taking their mate out for one last drink. He'd been dead for three days!

Here’s another idea I think I’m going to pass on:

I think thats pretty cool. A tangible memorial.

I kinda like the plastination thing. However, there's quite a bit of upkeep (and paint) required on the jerky people...

Wife’s family has 160 acres of lovely woods in the middle of nowhere. I thought we should start an eco burial biz there.

Dig hole. Drop body. Fill hole.

^^^ It's legal in our state to do that. Just need to apply for a permit.

The FBI has a place just like that. They use it for research.

I think I'd rather feed a tree.

I've always thought cemeteries to be a massive waste of land and wrapped in superstition.

Wait a minute. You’re telling me that the animals I see sleeping on the side of the road are actually dead? 😂

My wife and I both plan to be cremated and spread on our favorite location, Santa Barbara. A particular place we hold dear with a view. Our kids can remember us later with a glass of wine when they visit this special place. My parents did the same . Being buried in a box freaks me out to be honest. Reduce my body to ash and spread to rejoin nature.
