>I thought you had a casket of some kind.
Just a really small one that I put a dummy in one year. You couldn't
fit a real person in it. I've been wanting to get a real casket,
though, so this might be a good excuse.

Yes, as long as it's not synthetic. I've found that black dye does
almost nothing to change colors on synthetics...unless there's a trick
to it that I don't know about?

The flags are illegal in most states. I know people who have gotten
tickets for them. I'm talking about the magnet-mount flags that you put
on the front fenders, purple with a white cross in the middle that say
"funeral" on them. I don't normally put them out because they would get
shredded in normal driving, but for a special occasion like this, I
wouldn't dream of leaving them off.

Like that's something unusual?
