Do Not Go Gently Into That Good Night
Various medical authorities swarm in and out of here predicting I have between two days and two months to live. I think they are guessing. I remain cheerful and unimpressed. I look forward without dogmatic optimism but without dread. I love you all and I deeply implore you to keep the lasagna flying.
Please pardon my levity, I don't see how to take death seriously. It seems absurd.
RAW"
I'm sure whatever state he's in is being infused with laughter.
I'll be sure to have some good laughs in his honor...
Edited to add:
RU Sirius on 10 Zen Monkeys gives good epitath...
