    I stole this from Progressive Ears to share here. An interesting option for your final remains.

    Well I have already made my plans.

    1. No religious ceremony.
    2. Cremation
    3. Open bar

    Since I would rather buy my friends drinks I even thought of a way to forgo the urn. I have decided that my ashes should be equally distributed among my friends inside of little favor bags like the ones passed out at wedding receptions. This will allow everyone to spread my ashes in a place they find appropriate. Sure some will be at the adult bookstores. Some should be scattered on the flower beds of McDonalds' restaurants. A little at a winery would be fitting. Some may flush them down the toilet to remind me of the high school swirlies.

    So for me I would rather not put money in the ground but pour it down my friends.

    Oh and if I do need an urn I want the bottle from "I Dream of Jeannie". Of course before cremation I would also want the costume.

    I love that idea John! Can I have a little baggie for the Clown room at the Chicago Institute of Art? Thanks.

    that's awesome, except no one I know in my family still owns a TT.

    I like JM's idea. Just have a party. I've been to enough funerals to know that I don't want to put anyone through that.

    I do. Cry for me, dammit. :incazzato:

    Oh, all right. I like the party idea too. But after you've cried.

    I will mourn for you but no need for many years.

    I have even chosen my theme song. Playing frequently during thel party will be the song from Wicked "No One Mourns The Wicked".

    And that's when my mind's eye went blank.

    Here we are at JM's funer... I mean, goodbye party. Everyone is drunk off their a$$. Then 2 people climb in with the corps to give him a "proper goodbye." One starts rolling him over while the other........

    Pandemonium ensues.

    What a mess that would make. I'd end up with ash in my face. How about if I scatter you to the wind over the tallest mountain I can find?

    then you can recite (with a western drawl) the following:
    "all we'll ever have is this mountain"
