Title: I cant believe what I just saw !
Post by: Lou 19028 on March 19, 2006, 11:45:48 AM
Today I saw a 2005 Cadillac Escalade hearse.. It had all of the hearse type trim work on it. Yuck!! In my opinion everyones last ride should be in a long low Cadillac hearse not some Chevy truck with Caddy badges on it. Last rides in trucks should be reserved for cattle and such. Owell its time to revise my will from "last ride must be in a Cadillac hearse" to "last ride must be in a Cadillac car hearse".... LOL :)

Lou, I understand your point completely. I think if I had the choice, I would want to go in a 1960 Cadillac hearse.
However, as Thomas Lynch says, "The dead dont care."  :)

Please, Please, Please. Dont bury me in the ground. I dont want to be worm food or take up valuable real estate.

Just toast me REAL good until Im nothing but ash. Put me in the box they give you with the remains and just place the box on the rear armrest of a "Sweet 1959 Cadillac" of your choice, (Use mine if you like) and ride me around town. I wont be a bother to anybody!! And Ill go anywhere you take me. Just as long as its in an antique Cadillac.
Im easy, I know!!!!!

  I just found out that Gene Rodeberrys ashes were sent into space by one of the shuttles.  That might sound really cool until you think...why didnt they just send his body up there whole?  Would that not be totally awesome, to be riding along in a space shuttle, or get out to fix a satellite and he drifts by, arms and legs swaying around?  Maybe they could fix his hand into a Vulcan salute.

  The hearses that really offend me are the minivans.  Sometimes they put little landau bars in the corner and actually use them in precessions.  That is sick!  What a way to show someone disrespect, by parading his body around in a dung wagon.

  I want to be taken to my grave in my 76 Superior hearse, but I have a feeling that I will be cremated, or buried in a funeral home with a cemetary right there, so that there wont be a precession.  That way, Tony wont have to spend my life insurance money on escort cops.

Man, when I go, I want to go to a BBQ, then my ashes dropped in the Air Conditioning plant at Police Headquarters, so that I can give everybody there the sh*ts.

Take my ashes and put them in my 6" "spud gun". Use starter fluid, since thats how I fire up the La S. Of course, the poor schlep who fires the gun will probably end up like the guys in "The Big Lebowsky". Raise a cold one!
