    One of our members is a mortician. I was horrified when he told me they buy the cheapest BIC disposable razors they can find for gentlemen's final shaves. That's when I started shaving twice a day just in case:

    I think I'd like a 10/8 Alex Jacques razor used. Gotta go big after death. Meh, no sense if getting scared of getting cut since you won't feel it anyway.

    Well............I wanted to donate what was left of me to science and even had the forms to fill out, but wifey says no. I then suggested cremation and that also got a no. Soooo since it's obvious I'm going to have a traditional western burial, then yes a final straight shave would be in order. Also I want a brand new shave ready high end razor placed in my right hand. The blade should be open and ready to go. All of my other razors and gear should be given to my only child.

    No shave for me. I came into this world rough as guts, kickin' and screamin'. I live my life in virtually the same way. So at the end of the day I said just stick me carcass in an old hollow log somewhere and burn the lot. Second choice is to give me a good old fashioned Viking funeral and shove me out to sea, on the out going tide, in a burning boat. I even have the sword, to be placed in my hands, if I get the Viking funeral. I made it meself!

    No shave for me either. When I sign off, I'll be burnt and tossed away like yesterdays barbecue-charcoal.

    It's cremation for me with ashes tossed to the winds off California's Big Sur coast at Rocky Point.

    A Parsi funeral has had me intrigued for a long time but as vultures are becoming rare animals it seems less and less desirable.

    I hope my hones, razors and strops will find a good home.

    When I'm gone I'd like to be cremated. But then I want to have my ashes compressed into three cannon balls. Then I want my children to load and fire me. Preferably off the top of a high mountain. If that can't happen, I'd like to at least be shot into the ocean. Preferably off of the bluffs at Oak Bluffs, MV.

    I'd like to be shaved properly one last time, then cremated and my ashes put in the air conditioning system at the office so I can get in everyones face one last time.
