I bet her kids are just loving the idea of having the remains of their dad on their fingers for the rest of their lives! |

I've heard of this.. I think it's kind of cool, in an eerily romantic sort of way. Like in Wuthering Heights, when they discuss burying lovers side by side with holes in the coffin so their dust can mingle for eternity.

I can see this being better than having an urn sitting around but making a ring out of him? That is a bit much. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Heh, you could have your whole family hanging from your neck.
You might want to look out for thieves, though; "OMG, a burglar have stolen grandma!"

before i begin, let me note that the rest of the following in this post is almost entirely in jest... (except the confused part, because i really am)
Timber - lmfao, that made me chortle. okay, does the f in lmfao count as dropping the f-bomb, because im so confused about this whole ordeal. Illumina - Thanks for showing me the other side so eloquently! It doesn't seem so icky when you think of it like that... oh yes, now that i think about it, being buried next to a love one and wearing them for the rest of your life arent so different after all...

Hm... I can have fun with this. Say a man has a wife and a mistress. They both die before him. He has a two-gem pendant made, and dies wearing it. And now all three of them can live happily ever after.
Wait...

Try "::erupts into peals of hysterical laughter::" instead of lmfao next time, then.
