Still Reality-Based After All These Years

Something tells me this is a bad idea

They say diamonds are forever. And now the dearly departed can be, too.

According to this article, LifeGem, a company in Chicago has figured out a way to turn cremated remains into diamonds.

What better way to ask her to spend the rest of her life with you than to present her with a 1 carat crystallized chunk of late Aunt Gert surrounded by baguettes of Uncle Mel?

How do they come up with stuff like this?

  5. Does anyone know where I can get super low mortgage rate quotes online? If this site could also point me in the direction of prescription-free viagra, that would be a plus. Thanks in advance. qqyrzlp
