2. Ask me again in 500 years...
Actually, no.

There is a time for everything, including death.

Khash.

3. I don't want to live any longer than my ability to take care of myself.
Once I can't do that, I hope for a quick and quiet death.

My father had a heart attack in the wee hours the day after Thanksgiving. He lived about 6 hours. I hope I can be as fortunate.

5. Only until the Heat-Death of the Universe
Edited on Sat Jul-09-05 10:59 PM by ltfranklin
After that, it's bound to get a little boring, eh?

6. long enough to outlive
bush/ cheney

...... from Bob Dylan's 'Masters of War'


.........' I will follow your casket
In the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I'll stand o'er your grave
'Til I'm sure that you're dead.......

7. No way.
It's hard enough to do it for 70 years or so. I'm already disabled and having a tough time with my body. Just think how it will be twenty years from now unless I can turn this around.

8. If I could be around long enough to see the world in
a true "space age" where traveling to other planets and seeing other worlds were a common thing, I think I would be happy to die then. As it is, our lives on planet earth right now suck because there are too many people like GWB on it.
