Phil is only correct 39 percent of the time. Similar to human meteorologists!

Human meteorologists are seldom wrong since they use percentages now,
If they predict 69% rain that means 31% no rain. Only wrong if they say 100% of one and the other happens.

I am putting it in my will. When I die, I want to take a cruise in a ship's morgue.

I would love to be buried at sea (from a U. S. Navy vessel preferably) hassles are almost insurmountable.

Of course but not to save money--there are international regulations that have to be followed.
Prices for full-body burial at sea is $5,000 to $10,000.
Compare cost of land funeral $7,000 and $12,000.
Cost of a land funeral with cremation is $6,000 to $7,000.

How about a nice Viking send off.....or maybe just put you on an ice floe and let you drift off into the sunset.......

No! A cruise ship and tossed overboard. Nothing else will do.

My grandfather wanted his ashes dumped overboard. Almost impossible. Its not something done to often. Navy said “ no”. One day a Mason shows up at my grandmother’s house. He tells my grandmother “ Get me grover’s ashes. My grandson is shipping out of Norfolk. He’ll sprinkle them into the ocean” . You need to know someone to do it on the hush hush.

It was a rather dark joke that you did not get, but I am sure that Wayne will.

Murph,

There’s a reason they’re called “booze cruises.” Drunken partiers fall off cruise ships with alarming regularity.

And get thrown overboard.

And jump for fun.

You and I are not too old for cruise ship fun, are we?
