Hahaha, tasteless subject line I know, but check this out:
Weddings and Funerals: A wedding and a funeral have the same basic elements: guests, a church, music, flowers. A wedding takes 6 months to a year to plan. A funeral takes 3 days to plan.
Just my two cents! (Possibly not worth that much, though.)
Carolyn Hax: Reason? The person who cares most is running it in the former, and beyond complaining in the latter. We're up to $.03.
