A part of cremation I've never really thought about...

The grease fire part!

A fire broke out at a Salt Lake City funeral home Tuesday afternoon as workers cremated the remains of a man who weighed more than 600 pounds.
    "In the process, some of the body fat had liquefied and leaked out ... and caused a fire similar to a grease fire," said Scott Freitag, a spokesman with the Salt Lake City Fire Department.
    An employee at Gardner Funeral Home, 1001 E. 11th Ave. put the blaze out with fire extinquisher before firefighters arrived, he said.
    The department assisted with smoke removal, and there was no damage to the funeral home, Freitag said.

Now there's a stellar legacy. How would you like to be known as the guy who caused a grease fire at the crematorium?

I doubt the cares any longer.  even if he was alive prior to the grease fire, I'm guessing he's pretty indifferent by the time the fires put out

They should have had a beer handy to pour onto the fire to put it out! That always works for me at the BBQ grill!  HAHAHAHAHA!

there may have been some damage if they poured a beer on them, but the flavor of the meat would probably improve

Think of how much money McDonald's could save if they just lit some non paying customer on fire once a week to dunk the fries into. They'd have to post a different list of ingredients & nutritional content though, probably hang it right next to the safety poster for choking victims.

I guess they gotta charge fat guys more for funeral before they die...

They were talking about this story on X96 "Radio from Hell" this morning. plumbers were calling in from all over the city talking about fixing clogged drains at funeral homes. one of the callers said he now knows where macoroni and cheese comes from.

not my favorite subject to listen to while munching a bowl of lucky charms.
