    I don't really care, since I will be dead and unaffected by whatever decisions others make on my behalf.

    However, I hope that my loved ones will arrange to have my ashes cremated and spread at one or more of the following locations:

    --Kalapaki Bay, Kaui'i, Hawai'i

    --Gold Coast (Tongs/Sandbars/Old Man's surf breaks), O'ahu, Hawai'i

    --Zuma Beach (halfway between lifeguard towers 9 and 10), Malibu, CA

    --South Carlsbad State Beach, Carlsbad, CA

    Well I won't see you then, I'll be in India in the Ganges.  But maybe the Indian Ocean will meet up with the Pacific and we can homogenize and say Howdy.  We have forever, no hurry.  Or maybe a whale will eat us and poop us out.

  • I'll be burned and chucked off a cliff in West Wales, along with the wife and the dog (who hopefully will have gone to her reward a long time before I do - the dog that is, not the wife).

    I'm hoping I'll be able to donate my bones to be boiled clean and hung up on a frame so I can end up a medical school anatomy skeleton.

    Oh My God.

    I may be using you some day.  That would be awesome.  Oh wait, I'll probably die before you do.

    That is awesome.  Good for you.  I think I am going with the cremation route, but maybe I will relent and do this as well.  Donate to science.  (I don't know)

    I'm not telling you, I know this trick. You plan to sneak in some dark stormy night, dig me up (or have someone else dig me up), then whisk me away to your lab for those "weird experiments" of yours.

    No thanks, Sister, I'll keep that info top secret, if it's all the same to you. Neither on life or in death, yer not gittin' yer stinkin' mitts on me.

    It never occurred to me until you mentioned. You forget I'm psychic.  I'll know where you are.

    I am saving recipes as we speak.

    You need to ask the cheese woman if you can pick one.  She is not too receptive to your wants I'm told after you rebuffed her.  And now you want a snack?  Yeah, that's going to happen.

  • That will depend on which way the wind is blowing.  :)

    I once thought of going for a viking burial on water, but permission is never given as they're considered a danger to shipping.  I rather like the idea of being a danger to shipping, if only for about 20 minutes, but the authorities would be very cross.  :)
