Would this have something in common with "being reincarnated to a womans bicycle seat" ? :D

LOL! But, I shudder to think where you might end up, in say 100 years. After-all, being mixed with plastic gives the ashes a half-life of like 5,000 years. Of course you could get lucky and become the property of a supermodel...but, on the other side of the scale....ewwwww

That's what all those notices were ;)

You realize that if you don't pay taxes people eventually show up at your house carrying guns. That's why I have been studying realultimatepower.net in order to Ninja them when they arrive.

LOL! Didn't see this one. It made me think of "Everything you wanted to know about sex but were afraid to ask" when Woodie Allen is a sperm waiting to deploy and says "what if its a homesexual experience?" then shudders.

Post by: Swoop on August 15, 2002, 03:23:42 PM: The MP for Cheltenham, UK, who'd been MP for the borough for 20 years, put in his will that he'd like his ashes scattered over Cheltenham, the town he'd served for so long......

When the local paper annouced it all the scrubs complained that they didnt want some toff's dirty old ashes over they drying laundry thank-you-very-much and they cancelled the idea.
