Hey, thats a cool idea! Can I float around up there with you?
Maybe we would get lucky and crash into a planet that could revive us!

Somebody hadda post it...

"Woke up this morning
Put on my slippers
Walked in the kitchen and died
And oh what a feeling!
When my soul
Went thru the ceiling
And on up into heaven I did ride
When I got there they did say
John, it happened this way
You slipped upon the floor
And hit your head
And all the angels say
Just before you passed away
These were the very last words
That you said:

Chorus:
Please don’t bury me
Down in that cold cold ground
No, I’d druther have "em" cut me up
And pass me all around
Throw my brain in a hurricane
And the blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears
If they don’t mind the size
Give my stomach to milwaukee
If they run out of beer
Put my socks in a cedar box
Just get "em" out of here
Venus de milo can have my arms
Look out! I’ve got your nose
Sell my heart to the junkman
And give my love to rose

Repeat chorus

Give my feet to the footloose
Careless, fancy free
Give my knees to the needy
Don’t pull that stuff on me
Hand me down my walking cane
It’s a sin to tell a lie
Send my mouth way down south
And kiss my ass goodbye"

I don't want anything odd done to my body when I'm gone, but I would like to end up in a museum display case a few hundred years down the line

Nothing odd. My organs donated of course, and I'd prefer cremation to burial. Although if I was buried I'd like one of those really ornate tall headstones; stand out amongst all the rectangle-semi-circle jobs they use

This is all very morbid!

I think offering my liver up would be as useless as offering Johnny's.

I prefer cremation, but I don't think it odd. I simply don't want my carcass taking up space in an air-tight container. If they would just bury me in wood and let me rot that'd be fine, but they won't do that these days. So, please, cremate me -- I've use up enough natural resources during my brief visit.

I'd donate my organs. The idea that parts of me live elsewhere is satisfying enough.
The stuff they couldn't use I'd like to be launched to space. I would also like my brain preserved. Just so other generations can marvel at it's beauty.
