We are all one day closer to death (Evil laugh)

What will the message be on your headstone?

Do tell...

    I will be cremated, so there's no question of a head stone. But assuming they feel the need to give me a head stone, I guess too many people will want to put too many words on it and the democratic decision will be to leave the space empty, so that each of them can imagine their favorite words there!!

      actually, i think they should put a cam down in my grave to:
      1) document the process of decay just in case i'm like, a saint, or something (you never know)
      2) make sure that i really am not moving any more ... i would NOT put it past my ADHD to animate my corpse in some small way .....

      speaking of nike's....how about the following 3 words for my headstone:

      "Just Did It!"
  6. lamenews
    I'm immortal so I have no need for headstone but if I did maybe:

    "just resting"
    or
    "look on the bright side, you're doing better than me"

    my virtual headstone: lamenews.blogspot.com/

      LMFAO Lamenews...man you crack me up! Thank you!
  7. iriegal
    I want it to say.

    "She lived her life like it was Golden"

    because I try to. Each day that God give me is precious and I try not to waste one minute of it.

    "I hope it's not just 42..."

    This is epitaph is already taken by a famous Swedish author - a man. Maybe I could change some words.

    "Here lies the ashes of a woman who had the habit of postponing everything until tomorrow. Though she bettered on her final day and really died ...."
  10. cardiogirl
    iriegal,

    Nope, no Nikes for me. My site usually has a Converse low top at the beginning of each post to indicate what kind of mood I am in. Hence, the bitchin' comment.

    With any luck I'd like

    "he wasn't doing something stupid. Really."
  13. bsilvia
    I'll be cremated too (it's more environmentally friendly), and my ash will be spread over the Adriatic sea

    But if I'd like to have a stone, the message would be:
    Never say never again
  14. footiam

    Something like 'Im behind you'
    'Your stood on my head'
    'Mind the Flowers'
  18. lotusflower
    Just like some of us, I shall be cremated when that time comes. But for the sake of this discussion my headstone will say:

    "Mum forever" :-)

    Cheers!

    A husband and wife had a bitter quarrel on the day of their 40th wedding anniversary.

    The husband yells, "When you die, I'm getting you a headstone that reads, 'Here Lies My Wife - Cold As Ever.'"

    "Yeah?" she replies. "When you die, I'm getting you a headstone that reads, "Here Lies My Husband - Stiff At Last.'"

    I, too, also want to be cremated. But if I did have a tombstone, it would read:

    "Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much."

    i can't die because...who'd take care of my kids? they'd have to stuff me and stand me next to a pile of laundry or hunched over a toilet with a toilet brush in my hand.
  35. Mouseclone
    When I die bury me deep,
    with a bag of reefer at my feet.
    With a joint in my hand,
    so I can smoke my way to the promise land.

    No really, that was a joke. I think that I would love to have what my some of my recently deceased grandfather said. And I quote

    "I did the best I could with what I had"

    You really can't ask for anything more from anyone. He was a great man as well.

    Lyrics from John Prine's Please Don't Bury Me ;-D

    Woke up this morning.
    Put on my slippers.
    Walked in the kitchen and died.
    And oh what a feeling!
    When my soul went thru the ceiling.
    And on up into heaven I did ride.
    When I got there they did say Danny it happened this way.
    You slipped upon the floor and hit your head.
    And all the angels say, just before you passed away, these were the very last words that you said.

    Please don't bury me, down in that cold cold ground.
    No, I'd druther have em' cut me up and pass me all around.
    Throw my brain in a hurricane and the blind can have my eyes.
    and the deaf can take both of my ears if they don't mind the size.

    Give my stomach to Milwaukee if they run out of beer
    Put my socks in a cedar box just get em' out of here
    Venus de Milo can have my arms look out! I've got your nose.
    Sell my heart to the junkman and give my love to Rose

    Please don't bury me, down in that cold cold ground.
    No, I'd druther have em' cut me up and pass me all around.
    Throw my brain in a hurricane and the blind can have my eyes.
    and the deaf can take both of my ears if they don't mind the size.

    Give my feet to the footloose, careless, fancy free.
    Give my knees to the needy don't pull that stuff on me.
    Hand me down my walking cane it's a sin to tell a lie.
    Send my mouth way down south and kiss my ass goodbye.
