A friend stopped by the other day to see the car and got a good scare. I was sitting in the back taking down the curtains and he walked into the lean-to where it's parked, opened the side door and stuck his head in and saw a shadowy figure sitting at the back door...I bet he jumped back three feet, LOL! I couldn't stop laughing...
This thing is already starting to pay for itself
Sin has the right idea! I have claustrophobia, so no burial in my plans either. The plan is to donate every usable part to the needy and then have my freshly cleaned bones hang in the science class of a university to be determined. Sounds like more fun than going under.
(I just like saying "freshly cleaned bones" - it has a ring to it)

I'm with you guys, no burial for me either. If I had my way about it I would be laid out on a raised platform where I'd happily rot away like my ancestors did. Since that's not allowed, I'll settle for being cremated and having my ashes thrown to the wind.

How cool is that! That's great Blackwidow. I'm jealous too. Hope you get "him" running for the season!

Since I've managed to take this thread completely off course, let me continue to do so.
Here's Bruce Cockburn's take on the situation, from his excellent album Dart to the Heart:
Tie Me at the Crossroads
Tie me at the crossroads when I die
Hang me in the wind til I get good and dry
And the kids that pass can scratch their heads
And say who was that guy?
Tie me at the crossroads when I die.

I never wanted to be buried, mostly because I don't want my loved ones feeling obligated to visit my grave on holidays etc. I'd rather everyone just think about me occasionally and leave it at that.
Besides, the cost for burial is ridiculous. I'd rather have my family throw a big party and celebrate my life, not my death.

Yeah, I think after donating the usable parts, I'd rather not rot 6 feet under... unless, that is, I can do it with full knight's honors:
The only thing missing in the picture would be a shield.
Oh really? Yeah, I guess I did. Doh! Remember what it was?
