If you want, give me a sneak preview of what it might say about you.

I didn't give anyone any of those thumbs down. I did give a few of the thumbs up.

I'd tell my wife I don't have to go to work today, then go back to bed.

First my husband could notify the Dept. of Education that I've died, so that my student loans would be erased.
Same with the credit card companies.
Then he could apply for Death Benefits from Social Security so that the kids could get about $700.00 a month coming in.
Then he could collect on the insurance he has on me through his work.
Then I'd go to Venezuela and make a nice life in the jungle on the beach. And sleep all day. And my husband could remarry.
The obit should say, "She was a loving mom and wife, amen, let's eat!"

I'd feel like I was in a really bad Twilight Zone episode. Hopefully it would speak of me in suitably exalted terms - good mother,terrific teacher,strange beliefs,typical divorcee,etc. Lousy car,ok house. That kind of thing. I assume my sister would provide the information for the newspaper in the event of my untimely passing,so I've always made a point of being on good terms with her. Actually,we've made a pact. I'll tell people nice things about her if she predeceases me and vice versa. As we age this will do doubt play an increasingly pivotal role in our relationship.

I'd either be inclined to believe it was a very bad mistake on the part of the newspapers,
or option 2 that I was a freakin earthbound (a spirit that got stuck somewhere on the way).
But, as I don't think earthbound spirits really care to read the newspapers, I believe I'd just go ahead and sue the newspapers... you know... anguish & suffering ROFL

wait and see if anyone showed up for the wake or sent flowers. See if anyone called with condolences, then never ever send a Christmas card to those who don't. Great way to cut the card list, don't ya think, maybe even the gift list? Lol

Well if I woke up tommorrow and saw my own obituary I would definately call the paper and tell them that there was an error. This is actually a nightmare,. My bank once informed me that I was dead. It was news to me, It took 4 very long and frustrating weeks to proove that I was in fact alive and well, You see you can't just show up at the local branch to proove that you are in fact breathing. This is not good enough. They won't take you at your word, So please please no obiturary in the paper until it is really time

I'd probably react much like Samuel Clemens did, with great humor. There wouldn't be much to read about, which is good for the papers because they can sell ad space to fit the blank area.

I never read the obituaries so I'd probably skip over it.

Sue them or haunt them,
whichever turned out to be the most appropriate.

Scan it and mail copies to everyone.

Missed the last bit: not sure about the content, but I'd like it to end with '... before turning the gun on himself.'
