My goal is to live for 30,000 days.
That's 82 years, 2, months and 16 days. If I'm a drooler by then shoot me. If not buy me a lap dance to see how woody's doing.

1. We're on*, then.

That's as good a goal as any. A sportwriter I knew in my editing days left provisions in his will for a "progressive last call" at the local bars. It was enjoyed by all who knew and loved him. :thumbsup:

*Not for a lap dance. For me contributing funds toward the purchase of a lap dance. (Just to be clear. :rofl: )

3. Yeah, my son and I are making a mixed CD for my wake
The expected sad bits are Handel's 'Largo' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rq1Iv3DkwVs) - played at 2 of my weddings, and Loreena McKennitt's Full Circle. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEXO-CtPp34)

Followed by AC/DC 'Hells Bells' and ensuing mayhem.

No church will be involved but I have an alcoholic Priest friend who promises to boogie.

I am also interspersing voice recordings to tell the attendees what I thought of them (Thankfully mostly positive, but a few nasty digs here and there)

RIP

4. Years?
I never got those cryogenic frozen people.

80 years is enough on this mortal coil.

Time to move on the the next stage of existence.
