He'd give you the shirt off his back, which is why he caught pneumonia and is here now.

The rest of your family, who will be thrown, kicking and screaming into the crematorium?

IN GOD WE TRUST...ALL OTHERS PAY CASH !

Actually I want to be cremated and have my ashes and those of my family made into one of those "living reefs". They cast your ashes in a cement structure with a bunch of holes in it and put you down on the reef in Key Largo or Key West. My luck a giant sea turtle will come and poop on me...ha, ha.

God - What a ride. Can I go again?

I really haven't thought too much about this one

What makes you bring this all up Ray - feeling some age?

Back from the days when I worked in a print shop,

May the paper arrive,

may the presses run,

may the client pay when the job is done.

And when I die, let my body rest

where I'll never see another press

Some have spoken about being buried, some about being cremated, I have told my wife to have me put in a big hollow log, seal up the ends, then have holes drilled all in it and throw it way out in the woods. That way when the smell gets right I can aggravate the hell out of the buzzards. I also told her that if she chooses not to do #1 to have my friend Philip Caulder, who is a great person and undertaker to bury me face down so that all the who have done some meanness to us can have the chance to come by and KISS MY A**. Other than all that, drink a beer, have a shot, smoke a joint, just do what ever feels right and enjoy yourselves one last time for me. Billy P

Got to thinking about this last nigth and remembered something a friend of mine asked me to do. He said that when after the burial, he wanted a bottle of Jack Black poured on his grave. I asked if it'd be ok if i filtered it through my kidneys first.

"When I die bury me deep, put two speakers at my feet, pair of ear phones on my head, and always play The Grateful Dead."

That had to do with the Obama campaign and the fundraiser they played at State College?

"WHEN I DIE

BURY ME DEEP

PUT MY REFFERS AT MY FEET"

No, I'm old enough not to worry if I get a bit older - in fact I'll regard a few more years as an achievement!

I just saw a feature in the UK press about epitaphs and decided that I would be happy enough if mine simply said: "He didn't do much harm". It made me wonder what the leatherworking wits would make of it all. Now I know!

The following tombstone is just down the road from me in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England

Here lies the body of Martha Dias,

Who was always uneasy, and not over pious;

She lived to the age of three score and ten,

And gave that to the worms she refused to the men.

I don't think I'll worry about a headstone. Some skanky leatherworker will only knock it off to stamp leather.

He had the courage to live, any one can die.
