I hope I drown or get blown up...

Why the hell would I want to be embalmed?

Look at this...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embalming

Not only am I dead, but some guy gets to wash me down and play with my dead skin to get me to look "normal". I'm dead, the last thing I want is to look like I'm not dead.

If I never get around to writing a will, I hope someone reads this and realises that I do not want to be embalmed or displayed or anything. When I die, I want to be cremated straight away. No embalming, no displays, nothing.

Sometimes I look around me and realise that we really are not as 'developed' as we think we are! What's with this fascination with retaining all sorts of stupid 'traditions'....Like embalming, fox hunting and the worst of all...Religion!
