Hey if nothing else you might be able to get a discount on caskets and funeral services, those things cost a small fortune you know.
Yeah! And, I bet they have KILLER halloween parties too! LOL (sorry, couldn't resist)

I wonder if I knew and talked to a mortician if I'd be bored to death. Ohh there I go again - I could go on and on with these bad jokes. LOL

I think morticians perform a great service and it is an honorable profession...a thankless one, but very honorable. These people prepare ones body to be placed in it's final resting place...what a great gift to give the deceased and their family...

I could sleep with/date/ or marry a mortician alot quicker than I could sleep with/ date/ marry a stock broker...

CSI and all that, its interesting science but I wouldn't even want to be in the room. And its definately cremation for me.

"How about if you meet a guy, fall in love with him, start living together, have children, and then he realizes that his calling is to become a mortician? He comes home beaming, saying that a local funeral home offered him a mortician apprenticeship!! What then?"

I guess itd be a good thing we already had kids!
mY BOYFRIEND IS A MORTICIAN AND i DONT THINK ABOUT IT ANY DIFFERENT THAN IF HE WAS A DOCTOR. IF ANYTHING I THINK THAT HIS JOB MAKES HIM A MORE SENSETIVE PERSON
