mind-wanderings of a scribe of the dead (obituary-writer to you)

Doesn't a "crematory" sound like a happy, fun place? Like a dairy farm with smiling cows, or an ice cream shop?

I can see it now, big pink cursive neon sign lighting up the night: "Chelsea's Ice Creamatory"....

yeah, I'm with Genna on this one. the "crematory" didn't sound very friendly and inviting at all until you suggested an Ice Creamatory. I think it's the "-atory": it makes it sound cold and scientific.
