    "Confusion"

    In order to appeal to fellow King Crimson fans postmortem.

    -----------

    "#dead #yolo"

    Still gotta be hip after death.

    -----------

    "Fuck You."

    Straight and to the point.

    do you normally see your own headstone? i think most dead people i know had their headstones purchased posthumously.

    Hey if I thought I'd get away with a real ship burial I'd start paying for it now. ;) so twice it will have to be. :) not one shred of me should be left here on earth, y'all don't need me haunting around. But I guarantee you'll hear me storming down rainbow bridge on a horse looking for the slain. ;)

    OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo all Indian and shit.

    It's called planning.

    These days you need to start planning your funeral especially if you're leaving kids behind. They cost so much, even a simple service, a box and burial is like 10,000 dollars. And that's without a fun look stone or anything like that. I know my parents have few bucks a week taken out for their planning.

    When my parents moved here in 2002 they bought plots in the Catholic cemetery. Dad asked if I wanted him to buy a plot for me and apparently I said OK. Shortly after this Mom and Dad told me that I could not be buried there unless I came back to the church. I said that was never going to happen and they should just sell back the plot. In addition to that I want to be cremated and they said that was not allowed either.

    In 2008, when Mom died, Dad purchased the monument for the grave. I was not with him when he purchased it and designed what he wanted on the stone. Months later, when the stone was set, I go to see it and in addition to their names and birthdays (and Mom's death date)....I am also named on the stone. I had assumed he would just get a stone for both of them. It is still weird when I go there to see my name and birthdate on the stone.

    I envision many years from now, people seeing the stone with my name and birthdate saying, "That person couldn't possibly be alive anymore."
