Sean,

 SD> I want either "I told you I was sick!" or "I thought therefore I was"
 SD> on my headstone.

  The first one was the hypochondriac's wish...the second one is a nice pun.

 SD> Fun fact: I am to be buried at the Mountain Home National Cemetery in
 SD> Mountain Home, TN (inside Johnson City, TN) since I served honorably in
 SD> the US Army.  I made plans already.  With my health, I could quite
 SD> literally drop dead at any minute and I don't want to cause any more
 SD> stress than needed for my family.

  Thank you for your service. :) Pre-arrangement is a necessity. There is a
local business that offers "cremation only" (no service or visitation) for 
around $800 (it may be higher now)...but a bare bones funeral can easily
top $12,000 in cost.

  I think of the joke where this guy wakes up in the morgue, and wonders
"If I'm alive, what am I doing here?? And, if I'm dead, how come I have
to go to the bathroom??". :P

Daryl

.... They say "Money Talks". Mine just waves "goodbye".
