Death!

I know its a "grave" topic-- but has anyone made plans for their demise? My wife wants an obituary on file just in case- and we are going to look into tombstones-- Just looking at this point.


I really want to have weird al played at my funeral (dare ti be stupid) and on my tombstone I want the words-- "The shell is still here but the NUT is gone"


But- seeing as my wife will be in charge of the music it will be boring church stuff- and since we will prolly share a tombstone it will say "Rest in eternal Slumber" or some mushy stuff.


Does Eddie Bauer make a casket?


I have several life insurance policies so things are taken care of-- I even have one that will make a scholarship to students. (boy aren't I just great scholarship :-) )


Just wondering what others think on the topic


I mean with me only having 5 or ten years of sight left- and 10-15 years of life till I craok- it is just something to think about.

Lots of options there. My wife has always said she wants folks to dance and sing "Ding dong the witch is dead" as they bring her down the aisle at the church.

Me, I would be happy if they dug a hole in a cornfield or wheat field somewhere and just tossed me in.

Being truthful, we have burial plots in Nebraska at the cemetery where our daughter is buried. It will be kind of nice to be planted up there in the same area where I got my start in life.

The bigger issue at this point Chad is plans for kids if they are still minors. Enough funds, who would be guardians, where they would live if both of you are gone, who would be guardians etc.

I can hear Curtis now after 6 months. "Julie, how long has Calista been here? I just noticed we have 4 girls not just three."

Chad if you die while I'm still alive I will bring some type of music player in there and play that song.

My brother used to have a tiny statue on his headboard. It read:


When I die
Bury me deep
Lay two speakers by my feet
Wrap headphones around my head
and Rock and Roll me when I am dead.


So.. if you do that for me, I demand it be rock from the 80's anything else simply won't do, and the first person to play Justin Beiber will be eternally haunted. Wahahaha!!!

when I die, I plan to just be dead. I don't have any plans beyond that point, but I am open to offers. An eternity of being dead may not be all that fun, who knows?
