Just as Hunter Thompson indicated how he wanted his remains to be disposed of, I want to go on record with my wishes for how I want my remains handled.
First of all, you must know that in the final analysis, I don't care. I'll be dead. But just spare me this fancy.
When I die I want my body to be cremated. Then I want the ashes to be placed in dime bags and distributed (free of charge) to my friends. I'm sure the ashes themselves would yield a formidable high but I want the ashes to be cut with a modicum of heroin, a splash of cocaine, a bit of methedrine and perhaps a sprinkle of MDA.
I will leave it up to the recipients whether they save the dime bag or sell it on eBay or snort it or smoke it. But I will expect my closest friends to shoot me up.

as response, i can only think of the immortal words of modern day philosopher, Brittney Spears, as she pronounces:
'Hit me baby, one more time...'

When I die, I want to be cremated, the ashes mixed with paints, and a portrait of me painted with them.
Though I wouldn't mind being made into a firework, either.

"When the going gets weird," Mr. Thompson once wrote, "the weird turn pro."

like L-rod i don't really care what happends to me after i die...but it be cool if like people caried me with them in like a small jar neckless to be handed out to those i love.
i want my funeral to be up beat i want people to tell funny stories, like they did at my grandpa's funneral....the other one, not the one that's currently not doing well...i want my funneral to be like a celebration. at my grandfathers funneral, they had a pic of him and my grandmother on a dancing crews ship dressed in drag, along with other funny photos.

A tad late perhaps, but RIP Dr. Gonzo, nonetheless.
