Just changed her status to "Dead"..


We have assumed you're not truly "in a relationship" when your facebook status says "single". Similarly then you can't be dead till your status says "deceased". Have you thought about who updates your status when you're dead? Its about time someone designs a virtual funeral so all dead people can be truly and completely dead.
Life insurance plans advertise about how they cover funeral costs. Folks often spend to reserve their spots in cemeteries and pick their own designs for their coffins. As our cyber existence today is often larger than the physical one, the concept of a virtual funeral would be a "killer."
Your will and power of attorney may hand over access to your bank accounts, but what about your email and facebook accounts? The virtual funeral experts I'm talking about will specialize in just that.
Think...Can your soul rest in peace if every 5 minutes you're receiving emails about earthly sales events, parties, discounts and more?
These folks will set up your own pre-selected auto reply for your emails " I am out of office till further notice... although if you get that notice you should be really freaked out"
or something like "Can't you see I haven't replied to your last four emails? In my case that usually implies I'm dead"
The funeral experts will also change your facebook status to something more interesting than just "deceased". Like for medics it wont say "dead" it will say "warm and dead"
Or still better you say something like "need lots of prayers folks..keeping my fingers crossed for heaven" and then few hours later your status will change to " Heaven it is!!.. here I come!..Just ran into Michael Jackson" followed by lots of thumbs up in "likes" and comments like "Please upload the pics soon" Now THAT will lay your soul to rest.
"Thanks to the heavenly Xanax, my soul now rests in peace"
