Subject: Alabama company turns gun lovers' ashes into ammunition

Written By: King Tut on 10/01/11 at 4:28 pm

Two Alabama game wardens have devised a smoking send-off for avid hunters and gun enthusiasts: For a small fee, the pair will turn cremated ashes into ammunition that the deceased's loved ones can fire at will.       Holy Smoke LLC has serviced only two clients since launching in July, but founders Thad Holmes and Clem Parnell said they have seen an uptick in prearrangements thanks to word-of-mouth and a recent flurry of international press.

"It's about celebrating life," Holmes, a 16-year state conservation officer, said on Friday. "We know how strange it sounds to people who aren't comfortable around guns, but for those who are, it's not weird at all."

I respectfully disagree.  What's wrong with going out with a bang?

If being turned into fireworks was good enough for Hunter S. Thompson, then being fired downrange is good enough for most of the rest of us.
