Texas Does It Bigger and Weirder - National Museum of Funeral History! Really? Yes Really

Ok I must admit this is one for the books.  They say Texas does it bigger, well why not have a gigantic collection in a museum dedicated to history of funerals.  Ya you are reading correctly, funerals.

The National Museum of Funeral History located in Houston TX houses a large collection of items related to funerals and the stories behind the artifacts.  The idea here is not to be creepy, but to show how the funeral industry developed and how funeral traditions were created.  Subjects covered include cremation, embalming and the development of the casket.  I chuckled when I read the motto of the museum, here it is "Any day above ground is a good one."  You have to admit that is witty.
