Maybe I'll finally make a Big Meet! Unless they have Space Mountain in heaven, they may have a hard time getting me in there. They'll have to lure me in with Dole Whip. xD

We buried our beloved dog and planted a pear tree over him. I am having trouble thinking about selling because I do not want to abandon Gadget's tree.

And when I die, I'll be in heaven, I don't really care about to body part.

Men generally produce more ash than women do because their bones are denser. And young people usually have greater bone density than the elderly because of age-related bone loss.** Not that I would do anything illegal, like smuggle a kilo of myself in. Would it matter if they could not match my AP picture with the dust?
