SUCH A DEAL

A Russian company is offering customers the chance to participate in their own funeral and experience being buried alive for 3.5 million rubles, about the equivalent of $57,000.

Gee, if they go to Ukraine and dig a trench, the Ukrainian Army will bury them for free :-(

And only an extra 1 million rubles to dig you back up again.

Being the Barry he is, Dave would only charge $25,000.

And only $10,000 to be released.

What happens if your check bounces while you're still underground?

Looks like Granma is going to have to cough up another $47 grand.

I've always kinda thought it would be nice to be buried alive: finally, no one bothering me anymore. But just my luck, a worm would find its way in and be all like "Have you heard about Herbadeath™?"

How much for putting the entire country in psychoanalysis ?

Putting the lie to the line from "The Big Chill" - "Amazing tradition. They throw a great party for you on the one day they know you can't come."

For an extra 10,000 rubles, you can 'rent' a shovel, just in case.
