Or left to be an example of natural decomposition, in which case we could put a camera on you to make a time lapse movie.
Or how about sunbathing on the antarctic desert, reclining on a colorful beach towel, with a cooler full of beer at your side?

If that doesn't work for you but you're willing to permanently wear a semi pointy gnome hat I have a place under the lilac bush in the side garden

(17,183 posts)there would probably be several possibilities. I like the idea of being made into a slot machine at Caesar's Palace, where people could insert a quarter into my mouth, pull my arm, and perhaps win several quarters dumped from the other end of the machine. Visitors could also just pull my finger for a nickel, but that would result in a somewhat different result.
I'm convinced that if Stalin had a few servos installed that would make him sit up, wave, and say "Hello, comrade" to every fifth visitor, he'd still be there next to Lenin.

(75,480 posts)I had a hard time answering to this. It's because of my heritage. I really won't go into a lot of it, but my mother insisted that I had to have her embalmed and entombed, which I did according to her wishes. She sits in a crypt and will probably look the same as the day she went there if she were unentombed in the future and way into the future. My husband, on the other hand, got cremated and he shares my bedroom with me. I myself don't care if the vultures and crows eat me, but that will be up to whoever disposes of me. I guess I just had to say this.
