  • Ways to Go,

    I don't actually care what happens to my body. Harvest the organs, dispose of it tidily, but I don't feel strongly about respecting my physical body once the life is gone from it. Perhaps that will all change when I feel more mortal (I am in my 20s after all).

    Has anyone seen Hunter S.Thompson's memorial that he designed himself? Hilarious monstrosity typical of the man :

    "Thompson's ashes were fired from a cannon atop a 153-foot tower of his own design (in the shape of a double-thumbed fist clutching a peyote button) to the tune of Bob Dylan's "Mr. Tambourine Man", known to be the song most respected by the late writer. Red, white, blue, and green fireworks were launched along with his ashes."
