Best way to die...
Death -- and how we die here on the Emerald Coast -- was the subject of a fascinating story on the front page of today's (Sunday's) edition of the Northwest Florida Daily News.
Reporter Rachel Kyler pretty much covered all the bases. She even took video of people talking about their fears of death. If you haven't read the story, or seen the videos, I encourage you to do so.
Rachel did miss one angle. That is, what would be the BEST way to go? I mean, if you could choose what killed you, what would it be?
I recently saw a bumper sticker that said: "I want to die in my sleep like Grandpa. Not screaming in terror like the people in the back seat of his car!"
Ok, a bad joke. Still, I think I would prefer to die in my sleep. Quickly and without warning.
How would you like to go, fellow bloggers? Share if you dare.

Quickly and painlessly, I guess. And after reading Sam Patti's obituary...
Die? And here I always thought that I was one of the immortals!
Already been blown up twice and shot once...still around.
Shot by an irate husband when caught in his trophy wife's boudoir sounds like a fun way to go.
When the doctors say I have x months to live, I want to go back to the Yellowstone country, sharpen a stick and die fighting a griz.
I just want it to be quick, although I have a feeling that I will die violently. Maybe dealing with a criminal population wasn't the best choice for a painless death. Only time will tell.
Blissfully unaware as the flight attendant struggles to get out of my lap and learn to fly the plane.
quickly, without the dr.'s and hospital trying to suck every last dollar from my ins. and bankrupting my family.
guess the only way to do that unless i have a heart attack or die in an accident is do it myself if things get too bad. brutal, but there it is.
I'd like to die like a terrorist being tortured by liberals...
I would like to be smothered in newsprint till I die of suffocation. Hopefully my last breath would occur on a Casey Brooks column.
Well Pat, I want to go the same way I came in: Blind, bald, and in a ... well were all intelligent here and can figure out the rest.
What a waste of news space!
Who cares? That's MY question.
I'm with azferret. Only, I want to die in the arms of a stud before his missus gets home and gives him the Bobbitt treatment.
This is Northwest Florida. I didn't realize we had a choice. I thought we were all dying from insurance and taxes?
As long as Dr Gary Cumberland isn't doing my autopsy, I don't care how I die! (Although I prefer the quick and painless approach to death... )
