I'm terrible at riddles but I loved the one about George Clooney..
I should be able to answer this one having grown up next to a mortician.

I'll have to give it some thought....just long enough until the answer gets revealed.

Funereal

 

[Nemo2]

I dunno, but their catch phrase was "Can you dig it?"

 

[win231]

Heavenly?

 

[debodun]

No one had solved it yet.

 

[OldFeller]

I knew a guy in charge of a cemetery and he said people were just dying to get in there.

 

[Nemo2]

Take & Dig.

 

[debodun]

Keep going.

Nemo...you are hilarious!!

 

[Nemo2]

Nemo...you are hilarious!!

"Thank you, thank you....I'll be here all week.....try the veal."

 

[Mizmo]

Somewhat lethal....

 

[OldFeller]

I'm thinking it involves the word "bury" but I can't think of a phrase that is cliche or clever

 

[Disgustedman]

Dead set against each other?

Dead heat?

 

[debodun]

Does not contain the words 'dead' or 'bury'.

 

[win231]

They competed with each other for business, but they were in a dead heat.

 

[OldFeller]

Does not contain the words 'dead' or 'bury'.

Hmmm...interesting...in mortician's terms...the "plot" thickens.

 

[debodun]

They competed with each other for business, but they were in a dead heat.

Good guess but not my answer.

 

[Nemo2]

One was liquidated, the other mortified.

 

[debodun]

Not quite.

 

[perChance]

They had a fluid relationship.

 

[debodun]

Nope.

 

[perChance]

They had a really close relationship - so close they shared bodily fluids.

 

[Buckeye]

Their relationship was a cold one...

 

[Nemo2]

They had a really close relationship - so close they shared bodily fluids.

But did they close the lid first?
