A creepy ring thing for the dearly divorced

Cool | Humor | Money | Weird

Are you unhappily married ever after?

I think they should be asking if you are "happily divorced" instead of "unhappily married."

Well, for those couples who are undergoing the often-painful process of divorce, here a one small way to bury your past: A tiny "coffin" to lay to rest your now-useless wedding rings.

"Give a dead marriage its proper, final resting place," says the company offering the miniature caskets, Jist Enterprises, on its Web site.

"The Wedding Ring Coffin is the perfect gift for yourself or a loved one for bringing closure after a divorce," the company continues. "It's time to bury the past and move on to a new tomorrow."

The $29.95 coffin, measuring 6 inches long, 2 inches high and 2 inches wide, is made of solid wood and has a dark glossy mahogany finish. The interior is lined with black velvet and the casket comes with a split lid for either an open or closed casket, for those who want to hold a public viewing of their marital failures.

We hope they will next sell a coffin so you can also bury the legal bills.

This is such a great idea. I wish they had had these back when I got my divorce. It would have been much more satisfying to bury the ring instead of pawning it.

Anyway, I found the story here

This page also has stories about a possible future link between "American Idol's" Sanjaya and Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Theme park in England fashioned after Charles Dicken's Victorian Era world. Funny stuff.
