I think if I was cremated, I'd go for the space route. Heck, if James Doohan and Gene Roddenberry can do it, so can I. Eject my ashes into space, pick up a nice space wind throughout the universe...Maybe...just maybe a part of me will be involved in the creation of a new planet, solar system or William Shatner.

If I was spread in DLR I would want to be spread in IASW cause, a little over here, a little over there, I would be in every country if you kn ow what I mean! lol!

In seriousness, I really don't care what they do with my body (except I will be REALLY angry if I end up plasticised, dressed in a tutu and posed in the Body Worlds Exhibit). I'm a doner and they can have whatever they need and then I have requested that they cremate the rest and after that, whatever. I don't expect my son to keep an urn of mom on the mantel so I guess they will have to dump me somewhere. I thought that it would be nice to be dumped in the river up here in the Rocky Mountains at the headwaters of the Arkansas and Colorado Rivers where I spent so much time. That way, I can follow the river down, probably spend some time in Vegas and then will most likely end up in LA anyway. Heck, maybe I will make it to Disneyland. Or, I'll probably end up being nice fertilizer for some farmer's crop.

Mr. Alice did the "Leg Dance" (grasp an ankle/foot up behind you and rock the knee to and fro to the music - classy stuff ;-) and I pretty much mimicked really bad square dancing. We did a little "swing-yer-pardner" stuff, too. The crowd... was stunned. And then they cracked up.

But when we got there It was closed Much to our chagrin. So, into Snow White's well Our grandad slowly sank Down among each coin His remains did join Must be like a piggy bank. Look at ol' grandpa Look at ol' grandpa We'll see you a-gain! Look at ol' grandpa Look at ol' grandpa Swirling down the drain!
