Excellent idea. However, I think the only issues with this one and the boat 20 miles off the coast idea, is who is gonna fly you? If you have your own plane, sure, but youd have to take off without others knowing, of having a good reason...same with the boat.

I suppose if you could gain access to a crematory, that would be the easiest way to get rid of the body. Then you just spread out the ashes in some wooded area (not all in one place though. Just sprinkle it randomly.)

You want to know? Look this is hard but a real way to do it is put it in the lava, If you can do it & keep your mouths shut, you're home free.

Bury it in my back yard.
It's just ten acres of woods in the middle of nowhere Wisconsin.

On HBO a lil bit back there was a documentary on this guy nicknamed the 'Ice Man'. He was nicknamed it because of his lack of feelings towards everyone, not for the particular way he disposed of the body im going to mention.

I believe he killed this person and put the entire body in a freezer for roughly two years. He then dumped the body in a forest and when the authorities found the body and brought it to a forensic expert, the expert opened the body only to discover that the body was full of ice.

There was nothing the expert could do because if he melted the ice, the body would wear down due to water effects and i believe he couldn't keep it frozen. Therefore, the time of death was impossible to tell. However, they did ID the body, but if you're looking to possibly try and get away with murder, go for it.

Grind the parts up, then mix them with your manure. Start a lawn and garden business focusing on fertilization.

yes you can. wrap it in a blanket and use an accelerent. once the fire is hot enough to liquify the fat it will be absorbed into the blanket and burned. once the fat catches the ress will melt quickly and will burn very hot for a long time. see: nazi fire pits. by wrapping the body in a blanket you can use something known as the wick effect to your advantage.

I said "Not very well"
It isnt like you just start a campfire and tossd a body on there, it takes a damned hot fire to burn a corpse. Have YOU ever tried it? You rlittle get a blanket and a match theory does NOT work.

i saw on the news once: a 36 year old man from Arizona flew to ... (i forgot) to meet his internet soulmate for the first time. he came over her place just to realize that she was a 69 year old hag who kept her roommate's corpse in the freezer in the basement. i wonder what happened after that

The body will burn at a LOW temperature for a long time. That's the only way to burn bones. When someone is cremated, their bones do not burn up in 1500 degrees of heat. Bones are ground down into powder and added to the rest of the ashes.

The only way to burn bone is to wrap it in a blanket and light it on fire. Fat will keep the bones burning at a low temp and eventually burn them to dust.

Dump it on my neighbors yard and act surprised when he mentions finding a body in his yard over a cup of coffee the following morning

what about uhaul?

i was thinking more along the lines of cutting teh body up, feeding it to a dog, cut that up, feed it to a cat, cut that up, and then have a saturday bbq with all your neighbors.

and for an extra kick...cut them up too...
