homer 0 #1 October 23, 2002 I made up my will this past weekend because, my unit is being looked at for possible future deployment. I was wandering since were all going to die sometime what is your last wishes and how do you want to be laid to rest. I have decided if I die in a military related accident or on active duty, I would like to be buried in Arlington National Cemetery. Other wise my family can do what they please with me as long as I am buried in a casket. CSA #699 Muff #3804 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pop 0 #3 October 23, 2002 I would like to be cremated and my ashes spread over an ocean. But I don't really like thinking about too much. I like life too much.7 ounce wonders, music and dogs that are not into beer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
homer 0 #4 October 23, 2002 I like life to don't get me wrong. I was just curious what peoples wishes were. I already know I'm going to spend my final moments at the DZ where they can peel me from the windshield of the DZO's car. CSA #699 Muff #3804 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,650 #7 October 23, 2002 Timely. I'm going to work on my will tonight... Body is body after you're gone. I want mine to go where it will do the most good/least wasteage. Donate to science, cremate and spread the ashes, dog food, whatever. The only votes that count are those of my kin. Anything that helps them to some closure is good, as long as it doesn't involve burial in a casket (to me that's just wasteful). I recently helped someone to die the way they wanted to (at home with family around), and it really got me to thinking how much more important the death is for the subject, and the rest of it for the family.

Cornholio 0 #14 October 23, 2002 Quote Cremation and a formation load ash dive. Then a big ol' party for my family and friends. Wow, that is exactly what I would like done. Cremate me and then dump my ashes out on jump run over my home DZ. I agree that caskets are a waste of money and space. Save some of me if you want, but I would rather be let the wind and gravity choose my future destination. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah!

Guest #17 October 23, 2002 I've already told the SO I want an ash dive and a party. I'd also like to have my rig given gratis to a worthy cash-strapped newbie, or sold, with the proceeds donated to charity.

Luminous 0 #18 October 23, 2002 It never fails. Whenever this subject comes up someone is always going "ash dive". And I'm one of em. However, (I gotta tell ya), I have a friend, let's just call him Fucker, with a whole new spin: Fucker: "I want to be creamated, and then have my ashes brought to the DZ, and mix em in some viniger. Then have all the chicks on the DZ stand in line and douche me. Ready-Set-Douche!". 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.'

Dumpster 0 #22 October 23, 2002 Ash dive for me, over whatever DZ I jumped at last. Then I want my survivors to to throw the biggest friggen party they can- and invite everyone - wether they liked me or not. They can party like hell- I'll be reincarnated as a damn West Nile mosquito or some shit- I'm pretty sure I really won't give a shit!

happythoughts 0 #23 October 23, 2002 Quote True. http://users2.ev1.net/~hinsonll/Brad.htm Too funny. I jumped with that "Fucking Fuck" in Z-hills for quite a while.(thinking...hmm..) I think, last Thanksgiving. We were also "The Flying Lobcocks" at Quincy in 99. Too much fun. Ask him about the Q video where he discusses the importance of eating. "If you do not eat, you will die." It makes less sense when he says it. Tell him that Bill Bickner says hi and he should drag you to the hills for some quiet and refined entertainment at the Crystal.

Luminous 0 #24 October 23, 2002 Quotethe Q video I was talking to Brad at the DZ one day after he had moved back to Houston, and I hadn't yet seen the video. Later that evening some dude come's up and ask me who he was, I told him and the dude asked "Was he the drunk in the Quincy video?". I hadn't seen nor heard of it but my reply "Probably". I've seen it now. It's a hoot. He's offshore now but I'll let him know you said hey.'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.'
