When I die, I would like my body to be hollowed out (leaving ONLY my pancreas) and filled with candy. I would like there to be a funeral gathering on the roof of the tallest building in Philadelphia, during which there will be a live band playing heavy metal music, cake, ice cream, and video game tournaments (I'm an avid gamer). My body will be placed into the net of a trebuchet (the construction of which I would trust to my dearest friends in my Will). Then, after the festivities, all will gather with their binoculars along the parapet of the roof. A few people will say there Good-Byes, and the winner of the video game tournaments gets to pull the lever and launch my candy-filled corpse out into the air. There will be a sectioned-off "landing zone" where local families and their children have gathered to await my body's arrival. When my corpse is flung into the air toward the local crowd, I would like Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture to be played throughout the streets of Downtown Philadelphia. After my corpse makes impact with the ground, I would like the children to have first dibbs on the candy. The nearest dog can have my pancreas. Thank you.
