An idea for a good way to die:

1. Live in a cabin on an island in the middle of a lake
2. Be rather old and feel ready to die
3. Have a party on the lakeshore with your friends and family
4. Tell them you’re very old and going to die soon and say goodbye
5. Get in your canoe and start paddling home
6. When you’re partway there, lie down and die (heart stops, voluntary if possible, taking a pill is ok too)
7. A timed device sets the canoe on fire and lights secretly stored fuel in the boat
8. There is enough to cremate your body while your family watches from the shore
9. The canoe has a shell which won’t burn so you don’t sink
10. Your family gets a timed message using whatever technological means are most appropriate assuring them that this wasn’t an accident
11. They can go get the ashes if they want
