a viking funeral
 

My older daughter was talking about funerals and asked if I had ever
considered where I wanted o be buried. I have no idea although the
scrubby cemetary on Cedar Key is to my liking. However, what I'd
really like is to have em put me in one of my little 12' MiniCup
sailboats, douse her with diesel, haul her out beyond the 3 mile limit
and set her alight. I bet it'd be illegal.

I don't' see any reason why not.

It ought to sink rather quickly with all those ornamental shields,
spears, swords, chain mail etc.

then again, i don't know about the diesel, though. maybe the CG would
frown on that. Of course, the vikings didn't have dieself fuel so a
few rickets of Pine, Hickory and charcoal would be a bit better. eh,
and about 5 gallons of charcoal lighter fluid ought to do it.

Get cremated first in a regulated oven and send your ashes out to Davey
Jones locker.

That would be a waste of perfectly good shark food.

Probably. How about this?

Use enough fuel and fertilizer to do it Islam style and they won't find
enough pieces to prosecute.

If you really want spectacle, fill an RIB (or just a rubber life raft)
with acetylene and oxygen at the right mix to burn blue.
Then you only need a tea cup of gasoline to get it going but you
better be able to light this puppy from pretty far away.
I know a crazy friend of mine set off a regular inner tube full in
Accokeek and brought the county cops from Clinton. (Md)
A 6" balloon sounds like a cherry bomb

Excellent idea, I forgot about that one.

A 30-06 Spingfield or .303 british with phosphorus tracer would do the
trick,

250 yards no problem.

In this group? 25 feet might ensure a hit.

Here's a guy talking about dying and bombs. I wonder if he drives a truck.
Hell, I know some folks with names like Hussein and Abdul that would like
to meet him.

A garbage bag of the stuff is plenty loud. Wear hearing protection,
and enjoy feeling the concussion all over your body. Adjust to what
they call a neutral flame, and then put the torch out by dipping it in
sand. It will burn under water, although lighting it there is tricky.

You remove the drain plug from a planing hull boat and send it out on
autopilot. When it runs out of fuel and comes to a stop, it will then
start to flood through the transom drain. Maybe 200 miles out. Of
course it is simpler with a twenty something, as those in the teens
are required to have positive flotation when flooded. So ballast as
necessary, with sand or rock, until sinkable.

An ex co-worker who grew up on a chicken farm in rural
Pennsylvania told of doing exactly that. He claimed that a
large garbage bag of optimally mixed oxy-acetylene set off
remotely with a flash cube (remember those) took out windows
in his house from back by the barn. Neighbors from miles
around called to check if they were ok...

His dad later caught him ordering a weather balloon from
Edmund Scientific.
