And like all my plans, it's so simple an idiot could have devised it!

When I die (in some sort of blaze of glory, or an explosion, or saving the lives of countless men, woman, and children), after my service, I want a New Orleans style funeral with a band and procession and everything. Marching through the streets, people fanning themselves, and ladies with big floppy hats. I am to be buried not in a graveyard but a park. I want to be buried in a biodegradable coffin and wearing a biodegradable tuxedo, biodegradable top hat, and a biodegradable monocle. Then after being lowered into my dead body hole its to be filled in and then a tree is to be planted on top of it all. That way my body actually is of use and not just taking up space. It'll be tree food. People might need to work on a way of making sure the root system doesn't just pick up my body and push it out of the ground lol but I'm sure science will have advanced far enough by then that it won't be a problem. Then maybe a plaque (right use of that spelling?) or something can be put there with my name on it or something, preferably with a title in front like "captain" or "duke."

That's plan A at least. Now "A" does not refer to priority but merely to order in which I am writing them. Plan B is slightly different. I want to be "buried" in space. Maybe on the moon or mars or something spacey like that. Probably with a giant space statue of me pointing toward the future... But still with the New Orleans style procession, floppy hats, etc. just in space.

Plan C: Be buried next to this guy
