New way for audiophiles to die!

This is no joke. I was reading the obituaries online as I usually do. There was an advertisement for cremation with a picture of a vinyl record. That caught my attention. The ad stated that cremated remains can be turned into many different objects including vinyl records! Who woulda thunk. I don't have the link but it was mcall.com Click on obits or google it. This opens new possibilities. What genre of music do you want to come back as? Joe

Hmmm....

I actually admire the recycling/reincarnation aspect of it as well as the possibility of someone being more useful post mortem, not to mention finally getting a jacket that fits better than the one I might wear in the casket!  

Packaged like a box set with notes, quotes, and photos? Cool!

As Steven Wright once said...

“I plan to live forever.” (Glances down at his watch)

”So far, so good.”

Man, Soylent Green!

I believe that was Edward G. Robinson’s final film - no pun intended. 

However, the recycling into vinyl thing does present a problem for some of us who’ve grown up with the religious sentiment - and I paraphrase - that we are in effect “dust, and to dust we shall return.”

LP’s and dust?  Vinyl’s kryptonite!
