the final frontier

For the “die-hard” Trekkie, you can now get a permanent reminder of your love for Trek to house your remains once you’re gone:

STAR TREK ™ Line of Urns and Caskets
For the millions of fans on our planet and beyond, our new line of STAR TREK urns, caskets, monuments and vaults will be an important discovery indeed. After ten movies and five television series, phrases like “Live long and prosper,” “Resistance is futile” and “Space: the final frontier” have become part of our global vocabulary.

While I don’t think they are the kind of thing I’d choose — were I into having my body buried or my ashes sat morbidly on Daniel’s bedside — I think they could have been a lot worse. They’re a lot more attractive than probably about at least 50% of the post-life accessories I’ve ever seen. (Check out the “Cat Fancier’s” urn for your dearly departed feline friend — that truly is a monstrosity.)
