  • Make a diamond ring of your dead child...

    Did someone you love die recently? Why not make a diamond of the ashes?

    Here's a link to the company offering the service:

    Could be a good idea actually. Until the ring gets stolen.

        I think this ring is cool as hell. I'd probably do it.

              yeah, it is expensive

              but that is an issue I have with jewelery in general

                This is horrible, but in perfect accordance with today's mantra, "if it can be done, of course we should try it".

                I heard about a new trend of piercing one's eyeballs the other day. Maybe they could combine the two.

                    The main site actually has a story about two being stolen in UK.

                      Oh, and for those who didn't bother to click the site...they say they only use a very small part of the ashes to create the diamond.

                        Sure, and how do you know it's really made from the ashes? They might just sell the ashes for cash and give you some cheap real diamond instead

                          That's sick and twisted. I love it

                            Mmmm....to take it a step further, imagine a guy making a ring for his next girl from the ashes of his former, and THEN winding up losing said ring and being featured on a site like this.....

                              Oh, cremains are a natural source of comedy. I remember hanging around with the family one night where we just started suggesting obscene uses for them. The one I remember best was my brother's, that you should have a Catholic priest waiting at the door of the funeral parlor rubbing a little on the foreheads of people going out and saying "The late Uncle Fester says goodbye....the late Uncle Fester says goodbye..."
