    First he thumbed his nose at old age and eventual death by taking matters into his own hands and blowing he head off with a pistol, now his ashes are about to take another trip!

    I see myself going this way, minus the canon of course.

    I can only describe him as a true American hero. But Miller put it best (not talking about Thompson, though) "You've just seen a prince walk by. A fine, troubled prince."

    You will be missed, Doc.

    Sounds like the pistol was just an unnecessary middle man. Should have thought it through a little better.

    I want there to be a grill out in my honor when I die. And at the end I would like it revealed to everyone present that my ashes were mixed into the baked beans and potato salad! My last official act would be to make everyone I know eat me! :lol:
