Am Ithe only one who thinks this is...

I was tempted a couple of times to touch a dead body at a funeral, but never did. Though I have touched a dead body once...when I kissed my grandmother good-bye shortly after she died at a hospital in 1997.

death doesn't freak me out. let's face it, we are all dieing right now. part of my training in the military had me working in the trauma units in San Antonio - gunshot wounds galore. that was interesting. i also worked in the morgue - they aren't as creepy IRL as they are in the movies. i also worked in the autopsy room as well - that is creepy. seeing a person dismantled completely while talking about which bar you are going to when the shift is over is just a little too surreal.

due to family medical history i spent a VERY large part of my youth sleeping in ICU chairs waiting for news.

these experiences, among others, have removed the "freak factor" from death. my trust documents give explicit orders to throw my bones into the cheapest wood box available and burn my ass. no bedside moment or lazy boy viewing for me.

My dying wish is to have my unembalmed corpse be sent one-way Fedex to the doorstep of somebody I hate.

better than that is when the day comes that you feel the end is near sneak over to their house and hide in their trunk. noone will notice until the smell is horrid and imagine your enemies surprise when they are arrested for your murder! oh yeah, you got Punk'd!
