What would you like written on your tombstone? What do you think your epitaph should be?

I think I'd like to go with:

"Thank God! I thought he'd never leave!"
 
"She refused to spend her life regretting the things she failed to do."

:cool:
 
"I'm buried beneath this stone sitting naked in a lotus...I simply won't face eternity laying down"
 
"Plant your feet here"

So I know when people are standin on my grave, lol.
 
I don't know...

I haven't thought about it since I am going to be cremated - I refuse to have my kids spend thousands of dollars so I will be laying there rotting in ground *shudder*.
 
Although, the best one ever is from The Odd Couple . . ."never rolled a gutter ball."

In reality, me too. Well, right after all my good parts, supposing there are any left, are taken off/out and given to people who can use 'em.
:cool:

Ditto - and my family knows it. If you can't take 'em with you, might as well let someone else use them.

My mother asked me about the "resurrection" - I told her that if the good Lord could create me from almost nothing once, he could do it again, besides, according the Bible, we get "new" bodies - we don't reuse our old. It is surprising the limits a lot of people put on their God. What about all the people who die in fires, explosions, etc.? The whole embalming thing is a barbaric superstitious practice started by ignorant people.

Then i want Muffie's ass and sexy-girl's lips, please.

Ummm, can we order in advance or is a first come-first served affair? And what if Muff went to, well, that other place. Is her ass still up for grabs, so to speak?

Man, this god biz is complicated. No wonder there are so many religions in the world!
 
Not up for the cremation/good-citizen-donation-of-body-parts combo, Mensa?

And WHY are you dwelling on this anyway?
Halloween?

Cremation? Are you suggesting I need get used to the heat?

Why am I dwelling? You see, I've developed this cough and it won't go away!:p

You're in Canada, darlin'. It would be futile.

Besides isn't hell really really really cold?
I know *my* hell would be so.
:cool:
 
I can understand the confusion

Like most on this side of the border, i'm shamefully lacking in even the basics of Canadian geography (and i have a degree in geography, too - though it's cultural geography, in my defense).

Where's Winnipeg in relation to, oh, Lake Louise or The Largest Mall In The World (both highlights of my family vacation to Canada this past summer)?

In all seriousness, i thought Canada in the summer was gorgeous and the people were warm and welcoming. I'm sure that latter bit is true year-round, too.
:cool:
 
There is a coffin for purchase that has a big postal-stamp of
'RETURN TO SENDER" across it. I want that coffin and that on my head stone.

I have not made my burial arrangements yet, but I have specified what I want and who to prepare my body. (And yes, she has told me she will swipe my earrings but will leave my pussy rings in-I nearly fell over laughing at that!)

Cultural Geography?!?! What in the blue blazes is that? Let's locate all the Gypsy camps?:confused:

Where is Winnipeg? You mean the city that is the Capital of the Province of Manitoba? That one?:p :D LOL Just go to the border between North Dakota and Minnesota and head straight north. It's the location of the corner of the streets Portage and Main, reputed to be the coldest corner in the world. I've been there in mid-February and I can attest that it is indeed cold enough to permanently alter a brass monkey's physique.:eek: :eek: :eek:
 
My epitaph:

"Send Air Conditioning! Now! Other than that, I'm having a hell of a good time."
