For Sale: CC

My shit hole gym isn’t good for much but it certainly provides a decent amount of blog material.  Today while I was in the middle of my first 300 effort in months, I took a look at the bulletin board where members can post stuff they are selling, renting, etc…  My eyes focus in on a hand written ad that goes something like this:

For Sale: Companion Crypt, 4th level, section F, Naples Memorial Gardens, $6000

WTF!!! I thought to myself as I read the note a second time to make sure I wasn’t seeing things.  I immediately called over one of my gym buddies to share my little nugget of lunacy.  Let’s analyze this.

Ok is it just me or is a gym an odd place to post such an ad?  A companion crypt, does that mean I would be buying a crypt for myself and a person of my choosing to share or would I be sharing the crypt with the stranger that posted the ad to save money? Sort of like finding a roommate for an apartment.  How is the view from the 4th level?  Location is always important I suppose, even when you are dead.  No dimensions were given for the crypt, I am concerned my 6′ 3″ corpse may not fit. Who wants to go through all eternity with your head jammed up against the top of your crypt?

I guess the economy is so bad that people are resorting to selling their expensive crypts and instead opting to just get chucked in the ground or burned to a crisp. Tough times out there….
