Jar With Cremated Ashes ? Inside

Wow!!!! But I thought I'd heard they lived to like 85 or 90!!!! Guess he'll beat you to the Rainbow!!!!!!

 

The way you love and care for him.....I'm sure he'll live longer than the average !!!

 

Some other species DO live upwards of 75 under good conditions, Aquitaine. Thanks, Komokwa, he's already passed his estimate. I suspect he's got many more years. Avian medicine and research is in early stages. Some of the more rare species like mine... they're just guessing.

 

and besides, he's ornery enough to want to cause you problems for as long as possible. I've got plans laid to be a med school cadaver when I grow up. Alternately if they don't want me for cutting up, we have a school for medical examiners etc at the University too. Put me out on the body farm, y'all, and let the spare parts be useful. I don't want to land in a box somewhere, pushing up bills.

 

I wish they'd just toss me in the woods and let the crows eat me.
You're right about the bord. There's a Spanish expression... "too mean to die."

 

I can't resist:

Please Don't Bury Me By John Prine

Woke up this morning, put on my slippers
Walked in the kitchen and died.
And oh, what a feeling! When my soul went through the ceiling
And on up into heaven, I did ride.

When I got there, they did say "John, it happened this way
You slipped upon the floor and hit your head."
And all the angels say "Just before you passed away
These were the very last words that you said:"

"Please don't bury me down in that cold, cold ground
I'd rather have 'em cut me up and pass me all around.
Throw my brain in a hurricane and the blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears if they don't mind the size."

"Give my stomach to Milwaukee if they run out of beer
Put my socks in a cedar box just to get 'em out of here.
Venus De Milo can have my arms Look out! I've got your nose
Sell my heart to the junk man and give my love to Rose."

"Give my feet to the footloose, careless, fancy free,
And give my knees to the needy, don't pull that stuff on me.
Hand me down my walking cane, it's a sin to tell a lie;
Send my mouth way down south and kiss my ass goodbye."
