A little dark and depressing, but what would you like done with your body, after you pass on? Think of it as an eplaya will.
Id want to be cremated, and my ashes mixed in with a batch of C4. Planted in the grave of George W Bush...or Raygun, if I dont live that long...and detonated.

Cremation, ashes dealt with by heirs as they wish, or maybe I'll go eco-chic and be buried in a park that's then funded by the fee.
Or a viking funeral!

dig a 6' deep hole, take my body & dump it in it. Tree planted on top is optional.
With the planets population nearing 7 billion we need low impact ways of dealing with dead bodies- the fancy western coffins with chemical filled corpses can't continue; and with over 80 million people a year dying cremation will require too much fuel to be viable.
Dig holes, toss the bodies in, let us feed the trees.

You know, Eric and JK, maybe I could talk you into becoming condor food. That's the problem with today's cattle ranches, they don't let the inevitable loss become food for this majestic bird. (JK you're not in the right place. Well maybe, Grand Canyon is in the desert.) Although I hear condors don't eat mutilated cattle. Alien cooties, I guess.

If, and that's hypothetically speaking of course, I were to die, it can't happen, but let's just say for shits and giggles it did. My choice would be to deep freeze me, with all my bits and pieces, because one day, in a future that we know nothing about, they just may find the cure to Death...

I'm thinking of donating my body to Hollywood so they can do one real awesome special effect.
Either that or burial at sea.
Excuse me Ma'am, your going to feel a small prick.

Unfortunately my number one plan was turned down by the only person who could make it work for me.
I'd decided that I wanted my body cremated and my ashes used in some of my brother's art.... He was doing lost wax castings at the time, and I thought I'd look great liberally sprinkled in one where eventually I'd come out as either a strange inclusion or just a random blemish...
....it seemed fitting.
Anyhow, he's not going for it.
(maybe someone else might???)
