CoffinPet Concept Gives Your Pet an Eco-Friendly Spot to Rest

coffinpet1

The CoffinPet concept provides the environmentally-conscious pet with a 100% biodegradable to rest in piece. When it’s time for a pet to lay down their will and power of attorney, they’ll thank you generously for providing such a thoughtful place for their bodies to be dumped and quickly replaced.

Of course, if you keep your pet in shape, you won’t have to worry about owning one of these for a while.

Death by Star Trek

Wow. Just wow.

Take a minute. Let’s get one more “wow” in. OK. WOW.

Seems a coffin and urn manufacturer called Eternal Image (you may have heard of them before) pulled quite the licensing deal. It’s now providing officially licensed Star Trek caskets and urns so that when you die and go on to that great gig in the sky, you’ll feel just like Captain Kirk. If you’re cheap and go the way of cremation, the 2009 urn will make your dead loved one look like a creepy black orb. Lovely. Way to go out in style.

The casket, however, is actually pretty bad ass. It’s got a nice red velvet interior, plenty of Star Trek symbols and what looks like a “power on” switch on the side. It’d probably make a cool bed for children. Vampire children, that is. Hit the jump for a picture of the coffin.

Eternal Image has announced a line of Star Trek funeral gear. Great for that last trip into the heavens. Featured is both a Star Trek Urn and a Star Trek Coffin. Are you geeky enough to demand this gear in your will?

The Star Trek Urn is designed to resemble the 24th century feel of the United Federation of Planets and Starfleet and will be available in late 2007. The coffin is based on the design of the photon torpedo from The Wrath Of Khan and will be available in 2008. For those of you planning to die within the next year, you might want to pre-order one of these. (more…)
