Many funeral homes are now offering “jewelry” made from the cremated remains of loved ones or with the remains sealed within the jewelry. If you don’t believe me, click HERE, HERE, or HERE. The ghoulishness and bad taste are surpassed only by the shock of how suddenly such bizarre practices have been introduced. One can imagine the following awful dialogue: “Hey, that’s pretty new jewelry! Was that your Mom’s?” “Well, actually it is Mom!” Double yikes!

Hey, when I'm gone, compress my cremains into a diamond.

That way I may actually be worth something.

Either this, or I plan to be scattered over the breakfast bar at Denny's.

I thought the manufacture of diamonds from compression only produced industrial quality diamonds, but maybe I am wrong.

Or you could be a cubic zirconium.

But those are not worth that much, so this strategy may need re-thinking.

And then I'll make you a singing knight. I'll say "Kneel, Diamond!"
