shot from a cannon?
ok, so hunter s. thompson's remains are to be shot from a cannon....as he requested, thanks to a generous donation by johnny depp of all people.......kentucky connection i suppose......as for me.....the thought of my ashes being flung into the stratosphere sounds like such a waste of organic material.......i suppose i would much rather my ashes be used as a bit of extra fertilizer for a nice japanese maple......or a buckeye tree......or maybe a heritage tree like the american chestnut.......i mention my ashes because i have desire for a casket lined with pink padded satin.......that ought to look nasty after a month or two.....and for the expense of it my remaining family could have staged a proper wake......with better-than-box wine, some nice cheeses.....an olive assortment.....i would really hate to miss that but, when one is already dead.......the menu is of little importance......i would also ask that when any of my favorite folks find themselves in paris.....do raise a glass.......that would really say farewell better than most gestures.......but to be shot from a cannon....omg.......
