Okay? Should I choose a place that doesn't have living things? My 2nd choice is having my ashes left in an urn in the middle of the desert.

Surely you mean subscribe rather than ascribe?

If you can feel and know a good meal, or a good orgasm, or a good drug, or a good laugh, why not apply this skill of perception towards the concept of death and dying? just a thought.


Actually most people accept that there is something after death, as most people are religious.

I've done it, there's nothing there. There's just the death.

Yeah, I laughed too. I should have put more detail. The cold Atlantic, like New England or Europa. I hate the hot part of the Atlantic.

I'd like to go to a place called Heaven, which is a cozy room with overstuffed cushions and the best stereo system imaginable. Every Rolling Stones LP ever pressed, official or bootleg, is there, along with all my other favorite albums. There's also an infinite (naturally) supply of Three Floyds Alpha King pale ale.

Nope, none of that, apparently there's the Sound Of Music twice an hour and Jaws 1, 2, and 3 and it's Christmas every day.

Nope, not to the Heaven I'm going to. Enjoy yours, though, if that's really what you want.

in heaven everything is fine

The best thing about Heaven is you get to make it into whatever you want. You get the best interior designers in the universe. God told me so.

Okay, then only the Kim Deal voiced version of "In Heaven" can be played, not the Black Francis version.

The original version is so superior to the Pixies' cover.

no, I believe I meant ascribe [2.to attribute or think of as belonging, as a quality or characteristic]. I think that even religious people and especially people who profess a belief in afterlife, have never actually attempted to perceive this belief and get their mind and experience around it, so that as we Rasta say, "Who feels it knows it y'all"

That's kind of creepy for my afterlife among the feeshes.

how am i going to go anywhere when i'm dead?

as for burials, i would hope that my remains be be planted straight on the ground. i used to have the idea of a cannibal barbeque, new guinea style, but there are health concerns.

on the other hand, cremation contributes to global warming in a big way.

the mayas had the right idea planting corn on burial grounds. reuse/recycle. since i don't see corn as sacred, maybe some tomatos and basil in my case.

similarly, i'm sure potheads would love to be smoked by their friends in the afterlife.

Well, you go places when you're alive, don't you? Why not when you're dead, too?

because "you" are not "there" to "go"?

what is the place for things that don't exist?
