Different strokes, I guess.

vigilante-ism isn't all that uncommon, most of us don't partake because we don't want to get in trouble with the law. But it's just under the surface for many people. particularly when we see a system that doesn't seem inclined towards justice.

i think if the chips were down, though, very few people would waste their final hours worrying about anything other than their families and friends and a few creature comforts.

This thread, all the Terry Schivo shit, and my own health has really got me thinking about death. Not a bad thing in my eyes (thinking about it, I mean). I want to be "prepared" I guess, as much as one can be. And I want to write letters for people in my life to read when I'm gone. Things that I can't/don't know how to say now but really want them to know... good and bad things.

For the record, I also want it clear what I want done with my body. None of this expensive funeral crap. No flowers. No churches. Toss me in a cardboard box and torch it on the beach. Bring a few kegs, order pizza and play loud music. :beer: :jig: :beer: :jig: :beer: :jig: :beer:

Chainsaw , you and i think lots alike .
I wounder though if this ending would be a quick " oh shit !!" and lights out , or a slow and painfull wind down ???
If quick and painless and i have 12 hours , make peace with my sister , visit with my kids , drink to much , fish some , and die by the Spring river here in Arkansas sitting by a fire watching the river roll past .

If slow and painfull , pretty much the same but with a .44 mag on my hip to end it when i feel it needs to end .

Now as to what to do with my body , cremate my dead ass , put my ashes in a straw hat , gather around friends and family , light the hat on fire and float it down the river , pop open a beer and celabrate my good times , drink a toast to the dead !!! :grouphug: :joint: :doit: :shotgun: :drunk: :finger: :thumb: :guinness: :lol2: :2cents: :luv: :fumette: :nadkick: :devil:

I guess the 1 mil bucks came about, by I heard someone ask an old guy what did he want do in life. He replied die owing a million bucks. I think he made it.
