Poll question: A serious topic, oddly, how do you want to die?
Edited on Sat Oct-22-05 01:35 PM by HypnoToad
Go by your heart.

or by ambient reality.

The choice is yours.

But you have but one choice.

That's the problem with ambiguity. :evilgrin:

One day...or one night, whatever...we have the BEST sex ever...and then we both die afterwards. In each others arms.

That's how I want to die.

25. One more Bill Murray Caddyshack
Carl Spackler:
So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.

27. Struck by lightning
I've thought about this a lot over the years. I got struck when I was 15 or 16 - the lightning hit the wire fence about a foot above my head and bounced into me. Knocked me about 6 feet and left me stunned but it didn't hurt a bit.

Quick, painless and EVERYBODY will remember me - "Hey, remember Skygazer?" "Oh, yeah, she's the one who got struck by lightning."

That's my choice.
