This is pretty weird.
You know you are taking your work way to seriously, when you get entombed in it.
The man who designed the Pringles potato chip packaging system was so proud of his accomplishment that a portion of his ashes has been buried in one of the cans.
Fredric J. Baur, of Cincinnati, died on May 4 at 89 years of age and his family followed through with his last request to be buried in one of his cans.
Baur requested the burial arrangement because he was proud of his design of the Pringles container, a son, Lawrence Baur of Stevensville, Michigan, said Monday.
I bet he wouldn’t be so proud if he knew what was happening to all the cats. Then again, maybe he wasn’t a cat lover. [Source]
