10. There will be an open bar
I'll make sure money is set aside so all my surviving friends and family can get trashed at my funeral if they chose to do so.

12. Well, About 60 Years From Now. . .
I'll be buried in my Nitschke jersey, a remote will be in there with me, along with pictures of my loved ones. I'd love one of those Green Bay Packer caskets too. Music: A harp playing Bridge Over Troubled Water & What A Wonderful World, and a sermon that makes people remember me with a smile.
That's pretty much it.

14. I would like a party. No service. Burial would be
scattering my ashes in the lake and in the woods up on the hill. I came to this because I realized that I never visit my parents' graves but they are in my thoughts all the time. I would want my son to be able to visit a beautiful place (here), not a cemetary, and know that I'm around, in nature.

15. To get into mine... They will have to explain this regex.
(<.>?(<[:alnum:>_-]+)*)?@(<[:alnum:>\-_]+\.)+{2,4}$

This will ensure that my afterlife will be similar to how I lived. Alone.
