Since it's rather hard to communicate with the deceased we almost have to invoke a kind of out of the body experience to try and make sense of it all, dead that is. The only plus side of visiting cemeteries, or at least those not in a loud city is the sense of quiet all around, quiet enough to hear the breezes or anything else alive. Sometimes that's when is worth visiting a cemetery.

I like the idea. You could maybe sell it to these guys: https://mediocre.com

Regarding the cemetery, aka bury patch, marble orchard, etc. - It does seem archaic, like we're leaving this for future archeologists to ponder over why we chose that as our final attire. My goal is to draw my terminal breath (God I loved "The Life of Brian") the evening before trash day so I can depart in the wheelie bin. Just make sure it's the one for trash, not recyclables!

Have you read Kurt Vonnegut's short story, "Harrison Bergeron"? It's a must-read. Seriously. Literally (literature, really) the definition of Mediocre Pudding. I think of this story ALL. THE. TIME. when I think of popular culture. Would love to know what you think when you read this (or if you have)!

Mediocre Pudding has a nice sound to it but there's Average Pudding if there's a copyright. I never thought to check for a copyright for Get Published, which sounds like it's infringing. God I hate the law. Happy M Day Bev!
