For those of us getting along in years we should be thinking about what
will happen upon our demise. Here's one example of a living will that may
assist folks in planning their future.

I, Orville Oversteer, being of sound mind and body, do not wish to be kept
alive indefinitely by artificial means.
Under no circumstances should my fate be put in the hands of pinhead
politicians who couldn't pass ninth-grade biology if their lives depended on
it, or lawyers / doctors interested in simply running up the bills.
If a reasonable amount of time or 1/2 the number of laps of the race leader
passes, and I fail to ask for at least one of the following:
______ Chocolate
______ Latte
______ Road America bratwurst and kraut
______ Lox and Cream Cheese on Pumpernickel
______ Mexican food
______ French fries
______ Pizza
______ Chocolate Malted
______ Margarita
______ Kas' autograph on my car
______ Another 5 - 10 horsepower
______ All of the above,
it should be presumed that I won't ever get better.
When such a determination is reached, I hereby instruct my appointed person
and attending physicians to pull the plug, reel in the tubes, and call it a day.
