Re: Funny Stuff
The man closed the door, locking it for the final time. Everything that had to be done was done. With a sigh, he walked to the taxi, they would never return to this once home.
As he sat down in the taxi, his wife took his hand, gazed into his eyes and lovingly, softly murmered, "Dear, did you remember to turn off the oven?"

Meditated and hiked for 3.5 hours.
Watched dirty videos - so according to my interpretation broke the precepts. @how got that Zen stick with you? It worked last time

Based on a real event.
(No Orcas were harmed - Seagulls, not s much)
Orca: Tasty treat?
Seagull: Uhhh, mmmm, no
Orca: Come on. You want it
Seagull 2: Neat treat here I come!
Seagull: Thanks, but - Hay Bill! Don...
Orca: TASTY!
Moral: Beware of free treats from Orcas

Right speech: do not talk to a resentful person about politics, especially if the party getting roasted is the one they have voted all their life. Dumb, SUPER DUMB Kotishka!

I'm a little hazy on the details but I believe..
You can believe what you want but the fact remains those beliefs are tied to a story and that story is unnecessary and something you're choosing to participate in. What's more is you share those opinions openly which can be confusing or frustrating to people who read it. You once argued that exact point but you may have forgotten. A little lost in the weeds these days are we? A few too many stories in front of the eyes hmm? Forgot how to leave your self at the door before rushing off to the next great adventure? Nothing new, just a return to a usual cycle. Sit on that stool a little longer, you have twigs in your hair and look like you could use the rest.

Re: How to die?
I'm not sure even Tibetan Nationals get to do sky funerals anymore. I have seen them sending nifty containers of ashes aloft hanging from party balloons that spread them which ever way the wind decides.
