      <![CDATA[<p>I can now envision the body in a Gulliver-type pose, tied down with small stakes and string, and lots of clockwork Lilliputians; it will be just like Clyde Park's Circus @ the Pink Palace and little ones and their parents will come from miles around.</p>

      <![CDATA[I think you'd look great as a permanent exhibit in the museum that will eventually fill the Lauderdale Mansion, propped up in an antique, glass-doored cabinet. On Halloween, the kids could take you out and play with you.

      <![CDATA[I have left instructions specifying that I be dipped in a vat of shellac (after I am confirmed dead, of course), and then gold and silver glitter will be sprinkled all over my body. Once dried, I will be propped up in the lobby of City Hall, for all to admire.

      <![CDATA[<p>Thinking about it though, I would rather have a weatherworn woman loitering at my tomb than some of the other headstones with a photograph of me on it ... seems like a good idea at the time, but if you died in the 70s strangers would forever see you with an afro, or in the 80s with "Flock of Seagulls hair" ... far better to avoid being frozen in time with a photo by having the standard statuary I think. As for myself, I will be dumped in the recycling bin for pickup.</p>

      <![CDATA[Is she crying? Looks more like loitering to me. Maybe she's supposed to be hanging around waiting for Frank to kick the bouquet.

      <![CDATA[I wonder what those statues were made of? Assuming Frank built it for his wife since she died first, it is only about 100 years old- perhaps younger- so that weathering seems a bit extreme.
