Fact a Mundo.

We go out as we came in.... Naked.

These fancy metal boxes... stop it... throw me into the seas.

Done

We are all worm food.
Eat healthy, stop eating crap otherwise the worms will not devour you....
so you will be left to be a rotting pile of putrid waste.

Watch the Anoles, they only eat lively palmettos.

Get real everyone.

Stop fearing

Second note.
My father wanted his ashes to be scattered off Jones Beach , Long Island.
Big boat, I dropped his ashes..

Cannot forget it.... those ashes followed us for three hours as we all got plastered having a good old drink fest remembering him.

We kept looking astern.
Everyone said.... yup.... he is still here..
Will never forget that day.

persnickety old booger.

I miss my dad

This is an excellent way to go. And it high on my list. Sadly, most of those require you to have made arrangements for the disposal after they are done with you. At least the ones I looked into - if you know of one that will take everyone/anyone and pay for pick up and disposal let me know, I am interested.

Bury me with my butt sticking out of the ground so you have a place to park your bicycle when you bring flowers. :1rotfl::1rotfl:

Compose Me When I Die
 
If I am still in New York, I'll be donating my body to New York Medical College for medical education and research. They will pay the funeral director's expenses for transportation of my body if within a 75 mile radius of the College Campus. After they complete their research, they will cremate the body and give the ashes to a family member if so desired. There are no expenses or charges. Burial without cremation can be arranged through your funeral director at your own expense.

They said when I move to Florida, I can contact the Anatomical Board of the State of Florida 1-800-628-2594 and they would give me the names of medical colleges in Florida for donation of your body for medical education and research.

I will have to check into this. I wouldn’t mind a body farm either to help forensic scientists. 😂

I just want to be cremated, with my pockets full of raw popcorn. Maybe an M-80 or three in a cavity that wouldn't be explored! Boom!

Sounds crazy right, except, that is what people did for literally ever until someone found a way to make lots of money off people dying.

I understand that just planting a body in your backyard is both illegal and unsanitary and can spread disease. BUT...

Compositing results in perfectly safe residue and has a far lower carbon footprint than either burial or cremation. Give it a read, I like it.

now you can compost human bodies too
