I would rest easy in my death knowing that my body was used to irritate the greatest amount of people possible.

I'd be happy with my remains being catapulted into Oxford street during Xmas shopping or something.

But, seeing that I probably can't find volunteers to achieve this goal, I think medical science is the way to go.
One rec for that - can I be catapulted with you oh great merciful one?

They can take all my organs, my retina's, anything they want. Some sort of cheap funeral after that. I don't know why more people give away their organs when they die. Other people can use them, you can't, what is the point of keeping them, when you can save a life.

Urban legend has it that Doctors and organ transplant organizations have a pact that when a person is near death, the ER Doctors don't give full measure to save that person's life, especially if he/she has a healthy heart, lungs, kidneys, eys, etc....so, the docs and organ donor organizations make $ on viable organ sales. In India, and other third-world countries, people wake up on park benches wondering what happened and discovering that one of their kidneys has been removed....this is no urban legend....

My wife can put me out with the Sunday trash for all I care. I'll be dead.

Considering i live in Colorado and its cold in the winter,
I work as a butcher and it is cold in the prep room.
I think cremation is the way for me.
It will also prepare me for the hell fire of afterlife.

If you are lucky they will bring you back to life.

I am having my fingers, toes, ears, tounge, eyes, hair all preserved and made into keyrings for people who attend my funeral.

Love it!

Personally I reckon I'd like to get embalmed in alcohol (on my way there already - will be doing even better tomorrow) and made into a display specimen for a museum - either that or they can chop me up for medical training - not like I'm going to care....
What is it about your body that would deserve to be a display specimen? And what sort of museum would display it?

I'm going into a compostorium. The energy from my putrefying body will be used to power a 60 watt lightswitch in the house of Mrs Margaret Johnson, of Acacia Avenue, Little Falls, Minnesota.

A good single malt Scotch taken orally just before my time.
