Standing Tall
24-year-old Angel Pantoja Medina of Puerto Rico apparently told his family that when he passes away, he wants to stand upright through his wake. Well, his family granted his wish. Dressed in a Yankees cap, sunglasses and a gold chain, Angel was mourned by family members while standing tall in his mother's living room for 3 days.
The funeral home told The Associated Press that they used a special embalming treatment to keep him standing. His brother said, "He wanted to be happy, standing."
The police are currently investigating Angel's death. His body was found underneath a bridge last Friday.
I guess it's not that strange. I mean, I want half of my ashes stuffed into one of Shauna Sand's exquisite lucite heels. I want the other half scattered along Robertson Blvd. That way I will always be with international supermodel Phoebe Price. Oh and save a line of my ashes for Amy Wino. I want her to snort me up, Keith Richards-style.
Okay, I take it back. After going through these pictures, I need someone to hold my hand and feed me a Twinkie. I'm a little uncomfortable
Thanks Davina & Charo

If that's what he wanted, then great. I don't think him standing is the creepy part. Looking at pictures all over the Internet of people kissing his standing corpse is the creepy part!!!
Hell NAW! What happens when you go toliet times in the middle of the night? That's right, a dead body will make you go peepee all over the floor.

Nobody kiss me when I'm embalmed, NOBODY you hear?!?! That's all kinds of fucking creepy!
At 24, who is saying for a long time they want this as their last wish?

Madolyn: What do you expect coming in here?
Billy Costigan: I have to come here.
Madolyn: I know you have to come here, but now that you're here, what do you want?
Billy Costigan: You want the truth? Valium.
Very creepy, indeed.

Okay, I am all about respecting the wishes of the dead, but that's seriously really creepy. I do not want a dead person STANDING at any point in time, much less at their wake.
*shivers* At least now I won't eat the package of Nutter Butter Bites I just bought. *tosses them away*
