    If you leave your body to medical science it might wind up at some medical school with a bunch of ham handed kids hacking you apart and making fun of you as they do.

    Do not really care what happens after i've drawn the fake five from the deck of cards.

    Propably i get cremated and buried by the local tradition: into the memory grove at the graveyard. It's a place where ashes get buried without a stone and without your family knowing the exact place. Just somewhere there.

    And when people want to remember their loved ones they just bring a candle somewhere in the grove.
    Those memory groves look beautiful, specially in the dark winter times with hundreds of candles burning.

    Or as someone working at the ship there's always a small change to end up as fishfood. The sea is a beautiful place to get buried as well.
    And those who want to remember can light a candle wherever there's a shore. No matter where.

    However, i hope neither of these wont happen yet.

    Part of me says "demand something that's going to annoy and inconvenience as many people as possible as one final joke to the world", but the other part says "viking funeral" - send me to Valhalla in a burning boat!

    To be honest though, anything better than being weighed down with a bag of cement will do - I won't be there to enjoy it anyway!

    I read a 'last' book by a guy (don't remember who) who was dying and had made all the arrangements for his funeral. He then went into remission and wrote three more 'last' books. During that time, he un arranged all of his funeral preparations because he figured out that it was really none of his business.
