I'm trying to figure out how to have the medical examiner that does my autopsy pack my carcass full of fireworks before sending me off for cremation...
I always wanted to go out with a bang!
I'm also planning on having it written into my will that my estate will pay $500 to anyone who shows up at my funeral in a full Grim Reaper outfit and just stands at the back quietly, not saying anything, during the service.
Just for reasons.

 if I wasn't so much older than you, and likely be gone before you, I'd be game.  |

I hope mine is at least as funny, but also hope "horse's ass" doesn't apply to anyone mentioned in it. My "smokin' hot body" is in my past, but might also be in my future? I want these two songs (among others) on my funeral playlist: Motorcycle - As the Rush Comes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGH8rnraxoEBryan Adams - Open Road https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WP7Oh8sSH6c |

A little different twist: Sergei Rachmaninov- Bells of Moscow 1892It has been said that when one listens to this short piece to think of oneself being a sleep in the beginning, and then midway through the piece awakening to find oneself in a coffin and being buried alive; the ensuing panic and eventual . . . Beautiful composition. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yw1Pd9oojdM |

When I had my 90th birthday party, that was my 'wake' and I was there to enjoy it.
I see obits in the news that go on and on about the deceased, like everyone is interested, LOL.
A simple obit for me, no cremation but casket closed. J.S. Bach's "Komm Susser Todd" would be nice.
Yeah, I know, this is a funny posting, sorry guys but at almost 91 I think about it.
I ,personally, like the idea of popcorn kernels if cremated.

If it's to be a closed casket service, the only musical selection I'd want is "Pop goes the weasel", with a long pause before the final "Pop" part of the song, just to make everyone nervous as to if the casket's gonna pop open...

Any obituary that doesn't mention my name is a good one!

When i die I am to be cremated and my ashes given away to my close friends to load into their hunting rounds so they can take me hunting one last time. Won't take much, just a couple grains in with the powder. Then my wife can do whatever she wants with the rest. Flush them down the toilet for all I care. I'll be dead, I won't know.

I've got an urn with a good buddy's ashes on my reloading table, given to me by his family for that exact reason (Except general shooting, not hunting.) Every year or two they ask me to load up a few rounds with some Jim in 'em, usually around his birthday or anniversary of his passing... They tend to have a fondness for him being either in some 500 S&W Magnum or good ole' .45 ACP. Jim was a great guy, rode a Shadow, but wanted a Valkyrie so badly he could taste him, him and I riding to HotGlue's BBQ many years ago...  Anyway, sorry to make a light hearted thread about death into a semi serious one, just one of those memories was triggered... As for me, my practice is to check the online obituaries when I wake up, if I'm not in 'em I get out of bed, then I check the Fortune List of the Richest Americans, if I'm not on that list, I log on to work. |
