I told my wife that when I die, I want to be buried with a spear in one hand and an iPod in the other to really throw “researchers” off 1,000 years from now.

Given the headline: ‘Cow Woman’, I immediately assumed it was Michelle’s granny...

One day somebody’s going open a tomb or unearth a skeleton,
and some germ or virus that killed them is going to be loosed.

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!

Don’t forget to throw a few Roman coins in your pocket along with some US change. Who ever digs you up is going to think you are a time traveler.

Man of my heart. While traveling in a remote but historic area of Virginia, I stopped and carved the date 1789 into an off the path boulder w/ initials and a figure. Of course it was 1989.

Still have my masonry tools.
