    Amen!

    You can't take it with you, but you can sure enjoy the hell out of it while you're here.

    I'm having mine cremated with me.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I'm going to open up your urn after the service and fish out the razors--I figure that cremation may very well improve the temper to like Rockwell 63 or so....

    Maybe I'll make a set of bone scales while I'm at it.

    Hmmmm, that is an interesting thought. I could donate my bones to Mastro Livi and live on in a sense through being made into sets of scales for his blades.

    Or better yet, perhaps you could perish in the wilderness somewhere, perhaps on glacier, and somehow, somewhere 40,000 years from now instead of some guy getting mammoth ivory scales, they will be 20th century man bone scales!

    Like this fellow here . He was heavily tattooed and was buried 2,500 years ago.

    I go in cycles. I acquire things at lightning speed, then keep them for several years. In the end I hone my possessions down to what I really want to keep. Usually happens right before I move. Shortly after I get rid of everything I re-acquire it. Usually at twice the price I originally paid.

    Default Less is more?

    Gentlemen,

    Lynn said to me, "If only there were a Twelve-Step Program for us."

    "If only," I said.

    So today I went ahead and ordered the Boker "Edelwiss."

    Regards,

    Obie
