Was this supposed to be funny?
Here is something funny. I just arranged my own funeral 3 days ago. I am currently shopping for a Koa wood urn for myself. My kids didn't like my original idea of an Amazon box.

I always found urns and boxes of ashes displayed in homes rather creepy.

My mother kept her mother's ashes in an urn I bought her, mainly because she didn't want to buy a plot.

When my mother passed, we buried the urn with her and basically had a dual grave with 2 markers.  It was that or figure out something else to do with the ashes.

If you're suggesting an Amazon box to cheap out, you'll be happy to know the ashes are returned in a plastic bag inside a cardboard box already.   

And "funny" is in the eye of the beholder!

The koa box is to be buried at our family graveyard. It's not supposed to be sitting around next to the TV.

   My father loved Vegas and craps.
When he passed,   I took his ashes to the top of the Strat in Vegas, got into the XScream and when it snapped to a stop  866 ft above the ground hanging 25 ft over the edge, I let loose his ashes.
A slight panic ensued atop the tower as the large dark grey cloud exploded and proceeded to drift towards the strip. 
After being pulled back in, I find that I was not the first to do so and was free to leave.

ok...that's just weird and gross

But FYI, I knew a couple guys from the club that had their ashes shot into the backstop at the action pistol range.
Maybe I'll have that done for me when I bite the bullet.
BTW, The heavy equipment started in on the action bays during the last week.

I assume you mean STRAT. 

A lot of states treat cremated ashes the same as human remains which can be a problem scattering them if you are not following the law that applies to all human remains.

"Cremains" can be scattered legally in most states, but for private property (your case) you should get the permission of the property owner/manager first.  You got lucky, especially if they had to stop the rides, deal with the situation as a security problem, etc.

Here's good reading on the cans and can'ts:

It was so cold outside this morning, I saw a democrat with his hands in his own pockets.

Damn you're gutsy.   That would mean you had both hands free holding your Dad's ashes so you can release them.

I would've sh*t my pants on that ride trying to do what you did.....

But your Dad is very proud of you, his son

Reminds me of an oldie but goodie…….

Three gay men died, and were cremated... Their lovers happened to be at the funeral home at the same time, and were discussing what they planned to do with the ashes. The first man said, ''My Benny loved to fly, so I'm going up in a plane to scatter his ashes in the sky.'' The second man said, ''My Carl was a good fisherman, so I'm going to scatter his ashes in our favorite lake.'' The third man said, ''My Jim was such a good lover, I think I'm going to dump his ashes in a pot of chili, so he can tear my ass up just one more time.''

 

Early humans were fascinated with the rise and fall of the Sun, so much so they started finding ways to track and measure the time between dawn and dusk.

After the "hour" unit was decided on, they stopped counting after the first 24 and called it a day.

If they had pocket watches you might say they had time on their hands

When I was young man, I didn't have very much money. My mom always said, "Work until your bank account looks like a phone number."
Finally, after 40 years of hard work, "Mom, I've made it!!"

I guess I "made it" much, much sooner than that -- I would have been dialing the operator.

Think you had it bad.
When I was young, we were so poor, if I hadn't been born a boy I would have had nothing to play with !

For Christmas one year, I didn't get toys.  All I got was a pair of  scissors. 

The card that came with it said, "Cut holes in your pockets, so you'll always have something to play with!"
