Rep Power: 6 ![]() | Warms The Cockles of Your Heart, Doesn't It? Just when you think there's no justice...A news article from a Florida Newspaper: "When Nathan Radlich's house was burgled, thieves left his TV, his VCR, and even left his watch. What they did take was "generic white cardboard box filled with grayish-white powder." (That at least is the way the police described it.) A spokesman for the Fort Lauderdale police said, "that it looked similar to cocaine and they'd probably thought they'd hit the big time." Then Nathan stood in front of the TV cameras and pleaded with the burglars: “Please return the cremated remains of my sister, Gertrude. She died three years ago.” Well, the next morning, the bullet-riddled corpse of a drug dealer known as Hoochie Pevens was found on Nathan's doorstep. The cardboard box was there, too; about half of Gertrude's ashes remained. And there was this note. It said: "Hoochie sold us the bogus blow, so we wasted Hoochie. Sorry we snorted your sister. No hard feelings. Have a nice day." -- Regards Tom __________________ Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we're still here we may as well dance. | ||||||||

Rep Power: 7 ![]() | Sort of looks like the sister took care of Hoochie for everyone, in a roundabout way. And now we know that we can store our stash in with our dead relative or in some sort of container that looks like a box containing our dead relative. Puts a whole new slant on 'letting Grandma (or Grandpa or whomever) hold onto it for me' doesn't it? | ||||||||

Rep Power: 7 ![]() | I always figured that you got the box of ashes and then did the disposal thing right away...took them to the ocean or forest or where ever you were going to scatter them and did it- soon. I also figured it could be good justification for a trip. The ex and I used to go scuba diving several times a year somewhere in the Caribbean and I always told him that he could justify a trip if he'd promise to bring my ashes back and scatter me at one of those places (when it happened). Now he's the ex and I haven't been to those places for awhile, so that may not be the plan. Maybe the Grobian can take me back to Texas or out in the woods somewhere; he's not much into the beach thing. For a lot of reasons, I'm not sure that I'd want that sitting around the house for very long. | ||||||||

Location: San Diego, CA Rep Power: 5 ![]() | My wife and I have such an agreement. I like trains so if I go first, she is going to take a train trip and scatter ashes on the track. If she goes first, I take a trip to Sedona, Arizona for that purpose. __________________ Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup. Marty | ||||||||
