Since there seems to be some boredom in this thread, and your introduction mentions your affinity for marble sarcophagi (which i like too), here are some pix from my latest cemetery adventure as a welcome gift:

I will be adding more pix to the page this weekend.
Welcome.

Wow, HumanePain...you ready do have a thing for cemetries. Reading your other posts, I even thought it might have been a coincidence that the only question you pay attention to is the casket one...Oh well, now I know the secret.

That is why i feel at home here on G.net. When i share my interests anywhere else, i am called a "freak" or "immature". i don't care what they call me elsewhere, i have at last found a place where there are others with similar interests. At least here, it is a standard part of the question to know what one's preferred coffin will look like!

Oh yes....creativity takes on many different forms with the gothic culture.

Chosing your coffin isn't weird. It's just forward planning. Like deciding what you'll wear tomorrow.

I already have pretty much my entire funeral planned. I had it planned before my wedding, actually, but now that's all been sussed out too (except who the lucky groom will be. XD)

The entire funeral planned?
Wow, that actually sounds like a good business to start: "Let us plan your last blast! Only $45,000! Easy credit available, just sign over the life insurance policy. Includes ten copies of a professionally filmed DVD for your surviors of the event they will never forget!"
hee hee i am serious. i may just do this. hmmmm

i agree. I had my 14th b-day party in a graveyard.
you guys were talking about pre-planned funerals. A woman in my town just died last year. And she had pre-planned EVERYTHING! se had even prepaid the vendors. she wrote out a script, pre-made invitations, i mean she had every thing planned down to the number of grains of dirt to be put on her casket.

I'd like to say again how welcomed I feel. You're all very interesting people.
I havn't got all the details of my funeral down yet. Just the coffin. Though, now that I think about it, if I want a stone casket, I'll probably have to be interred rather than buried.

I am absolutely unable to even think about my funeral....the reason is that to be buried somewhere one has to chose out a graveyard and feel that one belongs there. I have never settled down anywhere and I am used to ending up somewhere else every few years. So I never feel at home and comfortable in any place. And one has to feel at home in the graveyard one's buried in, rigth?  .
Being rooted to one place, even when dead, is like the true Hell and isolation for me.
So I am absoluetly focused on being cremated...and as much as I would loooooooove a tomb I cannot be placed in such a stable place. I will go mad .
Otherwise, i find the idea of planning one's funeral before one's wedding extremely, um, poetic.

Ahhh, the unique tastes among us. My sister, aunts, uncles and grandparents are all buried at the same cemetery, thirty minutes from where i live. Since my lovely wife wants to be cremated (she wants her ashes to be scattered in the Appalachian Mountains near Kentucky), she will not leave anything to be put next to me in the grave, so i have elected to be buried in the same cemetery as my sister and family.
Roots i have, and roots i shall have, literally.

Yes, yes I do.
It's www.myspace.com/stormswing
(Sorry, I don't know how to make hyperlinks)
I only made my myspace a few weeks ago, and I've been busy, so It's rather bare at the moment.
Er...don't I need your email address or surname to send you a message?
PS: I like your picture.

There are a couple of ways to do it. You can write out a link, like https://www.gothic.net , or you can do it all cool in HTML style, with brackets. If you use the brackets, all you have to do is write URL=https://www.gothic.net inside brackets, type your text, and then finish with /URL inside brackets:
Gothic.net Site
