I'm with Gerri... have to wait until after winning the lottery. Hope it won't be too long a wait.

Sick, sick, sick, sick siiiiiiiiick! I don't thin...

Sick, sick, sick, sick siiiiiiiiick! I don't think I like this idea very much! 20K? Insanity!

Gerri - I know. 20G's sounds a bit steep.

Paisley - They do have a service for pets. It's probably a bit pricey, but you might check it out!

Tom - Nope. They don't have to be dead. Just chop off a lock of their hair. If you're interested in using entire living bodies, I can refer you to another type of website, with which, I have no official association. Nudge, nudge. Wink, wink. Say no more.

Deb - Really? Wow. And it kinda creeps me out, too.

Oh gosh, a solution for my dad's ashes! Mom still has them in a closet since 1999!

No, actually, it kinda creeps me out.

$20,000 for 1 carat? LOL.. I'll take 2 please :)

Great find though, very interesting. Too bad that I can't afford one until I win the lottery.

That's a great idea, my Lord. A corpse yo-yo sounds extremely interesting.

I should like to live on in death, as I did in life - on the end of somebody's finger.

Yep. It does.

2007-08-12T09:24:00.000-06:00

Yep. It does.

Hmmm ... yeah, a bit eccentric, I suppose. But it's better than forcing poor local people in Africa or Siberia to labor in mines for pennies a day just to get shiny rocks out of the ground. I hope artificial gems become more popular for that reason, actually.

As for my remains, I want a burial at sea. You can just dump my body into the ocean - preferably right into a giant school of sharks. With frickin' laser beams attached to their heads! How cool would that be?

Say, does this count as my last will and testament?

2007-08-11T21:30:00.000-06:00

That's a good point, Jaya! I guess you COULD use hair from individuals that are still alive. Let me know if you do it.

By the way, its ~$20,000 for 1 carat.

2007-08-11T20:03:00.000-06:00

I like this. I'd like to have one made of my own carbon, to wear BEFORE I'm dead.
