Subject: Burial at sea...
I’m watching the Discovery channel and it got me thinking. How many of you would like to be buried at sea? I know I would. Or would you like your ashes sent into space? Or, maybe the old fashioned way? Kevin

I am under instructions to scatter a relative’s ashes under the south tower of the Golden Gate Bridge, in recognition of the good times he had striper fishing there. I haven’t studied the legality of that, and just for kicks, I may just blow him out at Pinto Lake instead. Personally, I would rather donate my body to the polar bear den at the SF Zoo. Hemingway may have been a lot of things I am not, but he can never be protein.

Rolled And Smoked! That is, before Gyozadude calls the cops...

I don't know. The sea calls to my soul, but the dirt feels natural and more appropriate, because I'm a creature of the land. But then again, my heart is in the sea...? Still have some time to make up my mind, I hope.

You might want to have your remains turned into a reef.

Off the end of a pier is the only way to go. When the time comes to die I hope it’s from a heart attack while fighting a big fish. Of course for me that probably means on a pier.

Ya, I hope that’s the way I’d like to go too. Kevin

I want to be cryogenically frozen...And I want my kids to keep me in a big freezer until their kids can have me in their freezer. And so on and so on. I never want to get thawed or regenerated I just want to be Encino man forever. Until a giant nuclear war or a meteor destroys earth. Then they can use me for shark bait. Instead of a popsicle, I would then
become a slushy. Maybe to be served as a margarita. That would be nice... I can picture it now. What should I wear? I wouldn’t want all of my distant relatives to witness me in my buff for eternity. Wait, maybe I would... Hmmmmmmm...
