Question of the Day

Do you have a preference for what happens to your body after you die?

I'd like whatever parts can be used to be donated before the rest of me is disposed of in whatever way is most environmentally friendly at the time of my death. Beyond that, I have no desire to be buried or my ashes scattered or anything like that. You could throw my carcass in the woods to rot or feed me to starving lions for all I care.

I once worked for a guy who had built his own plywood casket, to be used only if his wife found "sticking a ham bone up my butt and letting the dogs drag me away" too objectionable. That sounds about right to me.
