Poor old Fred just doesn't look right without a bolt in his neck.

I always thought it was sad that he ended up in an unmarked grave.

Not on the same level as the Chi-Town graveyard ghoul story.

While I could be aggrieved with golf courses, I can put them in perspective with a greater metropolitan area. While they serve only one direct function, they also provide aesthetic value as well as reduce heat islands and dust, some noise reduction, and some oasis for wild animals.

Living in the southwest does make you more aware of water use, but that is relative as well. Agriculture and industry make good use of most public water, so only blatant misuse, like multiple shallow artificial lakes in residential areas, is really abusive.

Golf courses are also easy to covert to other uses, as they are just a “surface” use.

I understand stuffing a former pet, but have no idea why someone would bury their pet in a cemetery.

Yeah, bury it on your property, but to actually pay money for a burial plot ???

Stuffed domestic animals creep me out. Deer or fish or other wild trophy animals don’t bother me.

I'm just thinking if you are going to spend money on a plot, you might as well spent that money on stuffing "fluffy" and be able to pet their heads every morning

Heck, you don't even have to feed or walk them

If you don’t get it, I can’t explain it.

I’m not here to make anyone believe otherwise. Folks live by example and engage those who are willing to consider these things. Cheers!

This comes down to contract law. What were the terms on the contract signed when they buried their pets?

Personally, I always thought cemeteries should double as golf courses. (I'm talking cemeteries for humans as well). After all, cemeteries are such as waste of good land. And land should be for the living.

Well turning them into golf courses kills two birds with one stone. Dead people get to stay buried while living people get extra places to get in some golf.

Dead people down below...living people up above. Everybody is a winner!

Also, the tombstones could double as hazards for the golfers up above. Make the game a little more challenging.

We could also bury a bunch of animals next to airport runways.
