How would you choose to die?

The old Alaska gold rush joke abt becoming a genuine sourdough.

Drink a gallon of rum, fight and defeat a grizz, and have sex with an eskimo woman.

Guy takes up challenge, drinks rum, disappears out the door. Returns much later, cloths torn almost all off, body ripped up almost as bad, still drunk as a lord, and asks, "Ok where's that eskimo woman I've gotta fight?"

LOL!
 
What'd ya say Billy?

I think it's the ultimate form of self control.

And if I don't die before I plan on offing myself (old and feeble), there won't be many who remember me or care.

I'd go with Bloodhammer here.
If I were old and feeble, I really wouldn't want to burden my kids with my care. And if they were all grown with families of their own and lives of their own. Pfff it's a no brainer, I'd love to be able to check out at the time and place (and way) of my own choosing.
 
This past June I experienced a medical emergency that required immediate surgery that I didn't expect to survive. I was clinically dead for several hours with my heart stopped and no measurable brain activity, and my body temperature purposely lowered to a controlled 55 F.

Anytime I see a temperature referenced in a post by you, I expect to see an accompanying graph. You have disappointed me.:|
