This company was featured recently on The Colbert Report, and I just had to look it up to see if it was actually real - and it seems that it is.

They take your cremated remains and put them into gun ammunition.

The company is based in Alabama. I'm not sure it could be based anywhere else . . .

They have a few selling points they mention, but I think this particular tag line is my favorite:
"Now, you can continue to protect your home and family even after you are gone."

America sure is an interesting place at times.

"Maybe Daddy can still help us kill a deer after he's gone!"

I prefer to think of this as a companion piece to Soylent Green.

Things to do with dead people when they're dead.

Or is it "daid?"

So, if you commit suicide, will your dead daddy be charged with murder?

"Gonna make it really tough to visit Daddy's remains..."

Not necessarily - this is one of the services they offer:
"Mantle-worthy, finished, wooden handcrafted boxes with labels are available for an additional $100.00 per box for either shotshells or cartridges."
