    I'm totally down with being turned into jewelry. Don't know if any of my family would be on board, but I like the idea.

    Great idea! I think I'd rather be a stylus on a turntable though than a ring. Every record you spin is brought to your speakers by the groove master riverman!

    I want to donate my body parts and my skeleton to some med. student's closet but my wife won't let me do that.

    I would like to be tied to a rocket and launched into the sun.

    Does that count as cremation?

    Our grandson died 3 years ago, some of his ashes were made into jewelry for his mom and sister. The rest of his ashes were divided up amongst family. We take a little bit of his ashes with us when we travel. We've left a tiny bit of his ashes in Vegas, Cancun, Cozumel, Playa Del Carmen, and on top of the pyramid at Ek Balam.

    Does your wife have to burn with you, or will you just have one of your concubines burn with you?

    That cremation is about as thorough as it gets.

    You've got a point there, a really interesting point.
    Me, I'm shallow, I want a coffin and a headstone so people can worship me.

    Cremation.

    I’m super claustrophobic. Even thinking of being in a coffin and buried terrifies.
