We all want to go out in style.

"Either the wallpaper goes, or I do" and "Crito, I owe a chicken to Asclepius, will you remember to pay the debt?" are a lot cooler than, "wow, they weren't kidding about smoking."

What will your last words be?

How about the old favorite, "Hey, y'all, watch this!"

In all actuality I hope my last words are along the lines of: "I love you."

But another good option would be: "Sweetness!"

"What's this button do?"

or

"Frrreeeeeedoooom!" (As a really old man in a hospital bed somewhere. None of the younger nurses and doctors would get it probably, but at least I'd have a good laugh before I went.)

" I wonder what this does. "

" Of course I know what I'm doing. I've done this tons of times before. "

" It doesn't DO anything. Thats the beauty of it. "

" ....oops "

All of these are probable candidates.

I hope mine is something like, "I love you" too, but with my luck it'll be something like,

"Dude! It SO doesn't hurt!"

or the ever-famous

"Here, man, hold my beer while I show you how this works."

Icarus! That was funny! That's probably be how I'd die. I do live in Texas, the home of the most selfish drivers on the planet. (Sorry Kat, but it's true.)

I'm hoping to die in my sleep, so it will probably be something to the effect of a mumbled "rasberry jelly".

I contend that any place where you have to cross all streets at a dead run (Rome) has worse drivers.

Ah, Kat, I didn't say worst. I said the most selfish drivers. [Wink]

They're insane! They have to be pretty good or they'd all be dead given their tailgating and high speeds and roadhoggedness.

I'm still not convinced. I've driven in Utah, and Texas drivers actually let people in. On Utah highways, turning on your blinker is red flag and a cattleprod. You have to sneak changing lanes.

Also, the disparagement of Texas will bring you the wrath of David Bowie, and no one wants that.

I think I'd like to die right after explaining scientifically why whatever it was that was about to kill me, couldn't kill me.

Or maybe: "I was cured all right." [Wink]
