    When I picture my family throwing the gem into the treasure, I picture it bouncing back into the water and ending up in the garbage. LOL

    I've already asked my wife to dispose of my body in the cheapest way possible and save the money for herself. It's just a shell and I'll have no further use for it.

    My cousin spent a lot of time on the inside of the funeral industry. She was the first woman to be licensed as a mortician in Oregon. She hated the way funeral homes would work over the families of the deceased, and she became convinced that cremation is the way to go, simply because it's inexpensive.

    As for Disneyland - if it were legal I'd say yes. Otherwise, scatter my ashes in a forest, or if someone wants a memorial to me, put them in an urn on the mantel.

    I can see it now, oops, I forgot Uncle Bob was in my pants and the person behind me is getting hit with the grit in Space Mountain!

    I don't think I'd want my kids to waste any money on actually having it done, though. I think the thought of making a ring or something is neat...something much cooler than getting an urn full of ashes. Much cooler keepsake for family members but I bet most people would be too creeped out to wear it.
