Before I head out for the weekend, I thought I'd leave ya'll with something...different.

For the Star Trek fans among my flist, I offer these:

"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.

Monuments and vaults will also debut next year. The Eternal Image STAR TREK line is licensed for sale in the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Russia, Korea and Japan.

The first two products to debut will be the STAR TREK urns and caskets."

Or perhaps, for those of you who are more eco-minded, these are more suitable:

The ARKA Acorn Urn is manufactured on the same principle as the Ecopod.

The urn is intended to contain ashes after cremation.

Produced to regulation size - 10" high x 8" wide - the Acorn Urn is overlaid in moss green, hand made paper.

The Shell Urn, from Earth Urns, is engineered to float for approximately 5 minutes on the ocean. It then descends gracefully and biodegrades naturally on the ocean floor.

Something more cheerful in mind? How about these?

Tracey Williams, an artist of 20 years, has developed these playful and quirky papier mâché urns to trip your trigger.

"If you're going to spend eternity sitting on a mantel, you'll want to make a great impression." is the catchphrase of Vintage Urns. Bert and Bud the creators of the business, custom-design urns for both the flamboyant and simple palette.

Or just because you can:
