In case your grappling hook fails and you fall to your doom, at least now you can have a Spock style coffin for your funeral -

Yes, but the question is do they fire you out a torpedo tube? :wink:

Wow, I just as soon donate my body or have it cremated, but this makes me think twice. Go death!

When my grandmother died 10 years ago I had to go pick a coffin. There was one there that looked like a photon torpedo from the movies. Smooth and completely rounded at the ends and sides.

Thank frak Veterans Affairs is paying for my coffin, if I had to pay for one I think I'd slap one together before hand out of whatever lumber is lying around the house.

The image that follows is NOT made up... it was an actual, officially licensed, commercially available item from 2001 to 2006; unfortunately, I didn't pick one up in time, plus my people traditionally don't use coffins with any metal fittings; but what a way to go for a true soldier in the KISS Army - the KISS Kasket:

Warsies will probably have one in the shape of R2. Or they will come up with one very soon after this.

I don't know, and R2-D2 shaped one would be pretty damn hard to fit into. :wink:

Fold 'em in half! We're talking about a coffin - it's not like the occupant is going to complain...

Imagine the hilarity at the funeral.....

"Hey, give me a hand here, his legs are still sticking out."
"Look, you fold them this way."
"No! You're pushing them too far!"
*crack*
".......damn...."

Wow, Rochey, I'd love to see you write a dark comedy! :lol: But I thought Warsies would be burned on a funeral pyre.
