Costco's Morgue, you kill 'em, we chill 'em.

Click on the picture above...go ahead. BUT, when you come back, I want you to tell me if you have seen something that's well, ummm, "out of the ordinary."

Did you see it? Urns & Caskets?! Okay, I do not have a Costco store around my area, so I am not sure what their store room floor looks like. However, if I were to go into their store and see a casket, I think it would bug me a bit. If you go to their site, here, you may note that there are a few options for casket buying: Overnight shipping, three day shipping, FAQs, and my favorite: Urns and keepsakes.

Ebony Love Urn? Ebony Trophy Keepsake? Who named this stuff?

Alright, fine, weird names. Check out the descriptions. Here's part from the Ebony Trophy Keepsake description: "The Trophy keepsake hold a small portion of cremated remains...."

Besides the fact that someone should have proofread the description before putting it on the site (Note: the word "hold" should be plural), What in the hell would you buy this for unless you can stuff your entire Grandma into it? What are you going to do with the rest of her? Doesn't it defeat the whole purpose of a "keepsake?" Where do you put the rest of her? Which part of Grandma would you "keepsake?"


(I will not be posting this weekend, and maybe not even Monday. I have too much work to do, and have procrastinated enough already. Have a good weekend, and call your grandmothers for Pete's sake!)
