T-46 and counting...

Curious me went and did a death-test.

death countdown

I'm happy to consider dying in 2052 (at the ripe old age of 85), but I'm a bit confused by the rest of the date -- which month is 0? Maybe this is like a loophole to cheat Death when she comes to me with her big shears...

Na, luv, I'm supposed to die in ZERO month, well, tough, I'm not going until you tell me when that is.

Am I tempting fate? Only Time (with her long thread) can tell...

You big silly! (I'm way too scared to do anything like that...)

I liked your story of Bumblebee's haircut. D keeps wanting to grow his, but then I convince him to get it trimmed, and when he's at the hairdresser he wants it spiky.

It gave me till 2057. October 24, 2057. What's with the two days short of another full year? That's just stingy.

Apparently I'll be able to attend your funeral then have another five years to dwell on the loss. And then I'll die. That will be quite sad. Mind you, Laura's going in the same year, so at least I'll have company.

That's quite a comforting thought... someone to mourn me. I've married someone 5 years younger than me, so you'll be in good company!

Well, I'm gone before everyone (Oct 25 2048). The ripe old age of 78 :|

Oh that was exciting, but I'm not sure how to measure my radon exposure. Aug 7 2048 & dips ya lids to Bernice. I'll be suing if I get a day less.

Ahhh ... Nov 16 2019! I'll only be 70. :-(

I'd better get stuck into that mile-high pile of unread books!

Indeed, Ron! I'd start prioritising them!

It's made me read faster.

Funny thing - I've been 'planning' my funeral music - so far, Jeff Buckley, Leonard Cohen and Emmy Lou Harris are contenders... what IS in the air with this death thing?
have a good time with it - not at all sad.
