On a Personal Note

What say you?...Too much? Maybe redesign the chariot?


A few minutes ago, if you had asked me, "would you like to be buried in a cemetery when your body calls-it-quits," my answer would have been some variation of: No. Throw my bones in the Puget Sound — it's already glum, nobody will notice.

A few minutes have changed me. Now, without any equivocation, let it be known:

When I die, I need (I'm choosing my words carefully: need) these words — from the always hilarious "Slatest" — to be inscribed prominently on my mausoleum:

Apple submitted with their patent request expressed concern that there is currently "no way to monitor and control text communications to make them user appropriate. For example, users such as children may send or receive messages (intentionally or not) with parentally objectionable language."
Intentionally OR not.

I want the people who visit my dead body to laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh for eternity...

  1. I want my tombstone to have a motion-activated tape of a voice saying "Oh, Mary!" built into it.

  2. I expect mine will be required to list the patent-holders of my genes.

  3. Two good laughs, thanks.

    I'm happy that we're all thinking about this... never too early to prepare, as someone once said.
