Near Death - The Quiz

This comes as no surprise:

"You scored as Disappear. Your death will be by disappearing, probably a camping trip gone wrong or an evening hike you never returned from. Always remember that one guy who was hiking alone and got in a rock slide. He could have died, but he cut his own hand off to save himself. Don't end up like him (or worse, dead)."

Maybe you'll be the Incredible Shrinking Woman and we'll all just think you've disappeared when, in actuality, you'll be so small that we won't see you jumping up and down waving your arms frantically and hollering at the top of your lungs that you're still there.

Course, that could be fun cause you could end up getting to go to your own memorial service and see what people really thought about you. (Which I'm sure would be even nicer than you expected, not worse. If for no other reason than who ever actually says ugly things at someone's memorial service?) It would also give you the opportunity to be late for your own funeral, which I've always thought was something to which I'd like to aspire.

Now I guess I must go see how I'm going to die. Cause after all..quizzes are reality, right? :)

If you poison us, do we not die? I died by poison (as you may have guessed from this quote from the Merchant of Venice).

Hold, there is forty ducats. Let me have A dram of poison, such soon-speeding gear As will disperse itself through all the veins That the life-weary taker may fall dead, And that the trunk may be discharged of breath As violently as hasty powder fired Doth hurry from the fatal cannon's womb.
--Romeo and Juliet (Romeo at V, i)

"O true apothecary!
Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss I die."
--Romeo and Juliet (V, iii, 119-120)

I thought I'd end with a bit of the dramatic! That way you may be fooled into thinking that my comment is actually better than it is!

Gunshot.

That's right. Gunshot. Apparently I'm going to be assassinated.

Why? It just doesn't seem fair.

Way to put a positive spin on it, Beth. In more ways than one. I need to lose a few pounds. ;-) And what could be better than attending one's own funeral? Probably lots of things, but nevermind. And I'd definitely be late. But I think we both know the truth of the matter is that I will eventually succumb to some sort of water disaster and never be found. ;-) But, you. Gunshot?! You must be very important. Do you have stalkers?

Rachel, how literary and dramatic is your prediction! And eloquently stated. Great comment! ;-)

Eaten????? Who knew this would be one of the alternatives? Beware of cannibals! And thanks for coming over. :-)
