I’ve had this discussion with a couple friends before, and although perhaps a bit disturbing, it’s a fun thought. The basic premise is “if you’re really old, like 105, and you’re about to die, how would you take yourself out?” I believe Viraj’s answer was he wanted to rent a Lamborghini and drive off a cliff at like 100something MPH. Mine? I want to blow up on top of the Round Rock round rock, taking it out with me. I find it immensely humorous to become infamous by taking out a small town landmark/namesake. Anyways, it’s just a make-believe scenario… please don’t have me arrested. =p

  1. The “Rock” is a metaphor. At least it should be and I believe like you that blowing up metaphor’s is a “good thing”. So instead of waiting until the day of you passing I was thinking maybe we could do it soon.

    Best way to die: Get in an airplane without a chute, fly over the mountains and jump.
