Plan Your Own Funeral (in a good way)

Well, a very close friend of mine just told me that she had a dream about me on Saturday night, in which something really terrible happened to me. So that got me thinking about my funeral. It doesn't take much, these days.
I want a big fat part-ay. I want good food and good music--something to dance to. I don't want any crying or mourning or gospel (unless it's Christian rock and the good kind--I haven't come across the 'good kind' yet but I have hope). 'Amazing Grace' is strictly banned.
Am I an anomaly? I mean, I'm dead--there's really nothing you can do at this point apart from have a good time at my expense. Just shove me in a closet or something. It'd be nice if I got buried eventually, but that can wait till the hangovers subside.
I guess this means I should take out a whopping insurance policy. And if my friend turns out to be psychic, it was nice knowin' you all and have a good time at my funeral.
Just try not to puke in the coffin.

Well, I say it's a bit unsporting of CorpPunk not to let us puke in the coffin...
How about being preserved in a barrel of brandy, pirate style? Has the advantage that one can make a start on it whilst still alive...but actually, I've got a better idea.
I'm a vegetarian...with the occasional fishy lapse...Ed's a proper veggie. We have 3 very carniverous cats. Cat food tin labels are a bit boring.
So all we need here is a nice big mincer, a scanner to do commemorative pics for the labels...& everyone's happy. Should sort out the comedy goth contingent nicely, too...in the immortal words of Terry Pratchett, vampires have risen from the tomb, the grave...but none have EVER risen from the cat...

Without the time to trawl all the way through what seems a well thought out site....is it THE Mr Drummond?

Of course - it's one of his "projects".
I'm nearly as big a KLF fan as I am a Sisters fan, and, despite them both moving slowly, at least his "projects" are funny.
I think theres a directory at

Check out the penkiln burn site.

Nice try, but I'm one of those anal collectors. Find a band I like and it takes me about a week to get everything they've ever done on every different format.

Girlie, I like the way you think. You can be the executor of my will.
By the way, if I die near Halloween, costumes are mandatory.
Oh, and I'm not dead yet. Which kinda sucks, cos I got myself all excited about the party.
