1. Conscious exit from the body.

2. Tainted salmon mousse. (ref: Monty Python's Meaning of Life)

I would choose not to choose.

1a. Already ensconced on a funeral pyre. Being in Benares on the banks of the Ganges would be a nice touch.

I'd like to die at the age of 90 after being shot in the back by a jealous 30 year-old husband.

Okay, kidding. I'd actually prefer to drown. I almost drowned once and it was oddly peaceful.

In my sleep, as an old happy lady.
OR
On top of a giant Gas tank which is exploding while I scream "I'm on top of the world Mah!"
OR
While fighting for a great cause...so I can go to Val Halla.
Woohoo

Drowning in a vat of either Dr. Pepper, Mr. Pibb, or Mt. Dew - but not if they are all mixed together.

In my sleep at 105 tired from having a rousing night of good sex, full on pork chops and mashed potatoes, still good lookin' -- still able to laugh -- still able to remember my name.

I hear the Texas Education System almost killed Gore's 96 year old grandmother!

All of Life has been a surprise so why spoil it when it comes time for the Grand Finale?

***1. Conscious exit from the body.***

Me too

I'd like to be able to say goodbye to those that I love, and to say my prayers.
