Diehard DUers:

[babylonsister]

If you die precipitously, will someone let us know?
Do you have a plan when you die? Like burying vs. cremation, music at your sweeping memorial, attended by your hundreds of friends?
I do have an older friend who has it all choreographed, w/music and everything.
Inquiring minds...:evilgrin: :popcorn:

[Horse with no Name]

1. Well I am not one of the oldtimers

Although I have been here a while.
I don't want much for a funeral.
I'd rather have it while I am alive.
Anyone interested in sending me living memorials can pm me for my address.:evilgrin:

[chknltl]

2. All right all ready! You may have my bottle cap collection when I go!

There! Happy now?






























(resistance WAS futile! chknltl's snarky alter-ego made me do it...I swear)

3. Folks will probably celebrate on DU when I pass on :) (nt)

[RB TexLa]

6. Yeah, right

keep telling yourself that. :hi:

[RB TexLa]

4. No definition of "diehard DUer" given, don't know if I should have posted or not

sorry

[babylonsister]

7. Why not? It's fairly anonymous... or not. nt

[Journeyman]

5. I want only a few words said at my funeral. . .

"Look! He's moving!"

[babylonsister]

9. ...

words can't capture my reaction to that!

I'm still :rofl:

[pk_du]

12. Now THAT made me laugh - cheers! n/t

[Mind_your_head]

14. LOL

:thumbsup:

[hunter]

22. I saw something like that once.

But it was only the maggots.

[Mind_your_head]

8. Well, one of my good friends knows of my affection for reading DU

I'll have to make sure I ask them to let you all know that "I've been tomb-stoned for good" when I go.... ;-)

[Phredicles]

10. Oh, I was planning to have my ashes flushed down the john of the

faculty men's room while my students (in dress uniforms, natch) played "Dead Flowers" on the kazoo.

[TahitiNut]

11. No. Cremation in a Hefty bag - of whatever is left.

:shrug:

[angstlessk]

13. I found a cat once all tied up in the grass near the entrance to

the crawl space in my apartment...I was told the cat wanted to go away to die, to crawl under the apartment an die....I thought...now THAT is how I want to go..only I hear I will begin to stink up their apartments.

15. I will be flying into the Mystic. So I won't really give a damn.

But I will bet that Beth will throw a huge party.

And you are invited, 'sister.

[babylonsister]

18. Awww, thanks, Tom, I think.

I'm bummed this went to the lounge. Why? I love the lounge, but I won't get the responses here. Or maybe I will!

[leftofthedial]

16. no

just silence from leftofthedial

cremation

ashes dumped in the baked beans at the GOP Summer Picnic.

[auntAgonist]

17. well now ..

that my husband has a DU account :scared: I'm sure he'd let you all know if I kick the bucket.

:hi:
aA

[babylonsister]

20. I haven't asked my husband; I guess I need to. Or not. Out of sight,

out of mind on the boards. :hi:

[crim son]

19. I think the STBE would let you know, once he recovered from his

(forty minutes of) shock.

[LeftyMom]

21. If anything happeed to me, I'm sure you'd all hear about it from flvegan

As for the rest, I intend to be dead when I die (though knowing my luck I could manage to botch this,) so whoever gets stuck with the bill can decide on the details, as I simply can't bring myself to care. The folks will probably want to do a Catholic funeral service, which doesn't really bother me though I'm not a believer as it's for their comfort and I won't know about it in any case. They can put me in a sack full of bricks and dump my corpse in the river after chanting a dark mass over it for all I care about the disposition of my rotting remains.

23. How romantic
