Can't afford that 21 gun salute for your favourite aunt Agathas funeral? No problem! Just use these new Funeral Party-Poppers. they come in the very dignified shade of matt black, and shoot out respectable black streamers that fly far in handsome clouds of smoke. These could also be used during the after funeral gathering, just before you eat the "wake cake".

[BTW, this was inspired by the black party-poppers on the new Guiness poster campaign]

So not an original idea then? Croissant anyway. All those in favour, lay back quietly and cross your arms over your chest.

Those party-poppers in the link are huge! I'm meaning the smaller ones, perhaps you only get them in europe. Everything's so big in america...

Does anyone remember Harvey Putnam's funeral in "Amazon Women on the Moon"?
