Why Women Are STILL Smarter Than Men

[MA-Caver]

Joe's will provided $30,000 for an elaborate funeral. As the last of the guests departed the affair his widow Helen's best friend turned to her.
"I'm sure that Joe would be pleased."
Smiling Helen replied, "I'm sure you're right Jodie.
Jodie leaned in close and asked quietly, "How much of this really cost?"

"All of it. $30,000" Helen stated matter of factly.

"No!" Jodie exclaimed, "I mean it was all very nice but $30,000.00 ???"

Helen ticked off the expenses on her hand, "The funeral was $6,500, I donated $500 to the church in Joe's name. The wake, food and drinks were another $500. The rest went towards the memorial stone."

Jodie calcuated quickly then gasped, "$22,500 for a memorial stone?! My God how big is it?"

Helen smiled and held up her hand, "About two and half carats."

Did she mean LITERALLY creating a gem from the ashes of her deceased husband? If she did it this way, she probably had a "closed casket" funeral.

I like this part of that ad: "Love knows no boundaries. Love knows no end." Maybe not, but it looks like good taste has found both in this product.

I wondered at first if it took the entire body to do a few gems....found an article about this from about.com. Makes for an interesting read.
