Potpourri Vol. 1

A FEDEX Funeral . . .

or UPS or DHL, depending on where you are. This is for the deceased who always wanted to travel, but never got the chance. What the relatives and friends do is pack the deceased in a special casket, an insulated stainless stell casket with a small window over the face, one that can be filled with dry ice to help preserve the body.

The body is then shipped to various major cities or vacation spots around the world via FEDEX or UPS or such. At each spot, the casket is removed from the plane, placed in a hearse and taken on a tour of the city, returned to the airport, and then flown to the next destination. During the trip, various stickers, such as the ones people used to put on suitcases, could be plastered onto the casket as souvenirs.

On the corpse's return home, the burial would take place, burying a world travel instead of a stay-at-home body. BTW, don't expect post cards from this particular class of traveler!
