Not a pleasant way to start the day.... but, let's face it, everything dies. Admittedly this has been on my mind with a recent loss in the family and so I have turned rather morbid, but this too shall pass. Anyway, I found this very strange interactive web site and I am sharing it with you.... just for grins and not a prediction of your end or for that matter, mine. http://flowingdata.com/2016/01/19/how-you-will-die/

--i didnt try it yet but it could get a prediction but the unexpected cannot predict that

The program is designed based on CDC deaths and the causes. Of course it can not rule out accidents, but if you live a normal life,
doing normal things, then the probability of death can be narrowed. It also does not take into consideration your current health or the longevity of your maternal blood line (mothers pass on genes for many things). This program, based on its narrowed parameters predicts that I have a snowballs chance of seeing 100.

It says cancer or circulatory. Since I've already had one heart attack, I'm guessing it will be circulatory. This is good news since I didn't feel a thing. I simply passed out. It will be an easy way to go. Probably in my sleep.

Hmmmm, I will most likely go in my sleep.......at the hands of my wife if she has anything to say about it

Good Morning Bomb! What woke you up so early? Please let me pry into your personal business for a second, and if you decide to no respond,
I will totally understand. You said that you did not feel anything when you had your heart-attack? Nothing? No chest pain or swollen ankles?

Boo_Boo Loc: Jellystone

Now that is simply sad! I could never imagine anyone wanting to harm you!!!

I want to die like NY Gov Rockefeller. Does anyone remember?

Boo_Boo Loc: Jellystone

Yes and I bet his wife thought his death manner was fitting! Could you imagine being Megan Marshak and explaining this tto the EMT responders?

I imagine my heart will stop, but then.............that's how everyone dies.

Boo_Boo Loc: Jellystone

So true.... but what will "cause" your heart to stop? Suffocation? Or by doing something real dumb, like failing to eat right, exercise,
and getting regular health exams? One does not know the date or time of their deaths, one can only live as well as possible.

“Nelson thought he was coming, but he was going.” That was one quip following the news that Nelson Rockefeller—New York’s four-term governor, former vice-president of the United States, and the most prominent scion of America’s most famous wealthy family—had succumbed to a heart attack at the age of 70, while in his midtown townhouse with his 25-year-old assistant, Megan Marshack. Preferred joke: How did Nelson Rockefeller die? Low blood pressure: 70 over 25.

Before there was Warren Buffett and his secretary, there was Rockefeller and his. Autres temps, autres mœurs. The official story quickly broke down. He had not been in his office working on a book about his art collection but in his townhouse. He had not been with his security guard but with his security guard and his chauffeur. Okay, security guard, chauffeur, and a young blonde woman in a black evening gown. He died instantly. Actually, he died one hour after he was stricken. The blonde called 911, and that’s all she did. Well, first she called her friend, TV personality Ponchitta Pierce, and it was Pierce who called 911. Where was Marshack? Out of town, replied the family spokesman, though when reporters had reached Marshack by phone a few hours after the death, she explained that she was with the family spokesman.

Eager for closure, the family allowed no autopsy and had the corpse cremated, hastily absolving everyone involved of any negligence or malfeasance—“4 Rockefeller Children Say All at Hand Did Their Best” read the good-natured headline in the Times. But the image of an engorged “Rocky” launched into eternity by an orgasm worthy of America’s premier financial titan was already firmly established in the popular mind.

The sudden death may have robbed the public of democracy’s birthright, the spectacle of the high and mighty crushed and fallen. Rockefeller himself was the very Midas of scandal, his touch turning gold to outrage: the Diego Rivera mural at Rockefeller Center, the prison r**ts at Attica, and of course his high-profile divorce from Mary Clark, his wife of 22 years, to marry Margaretta “Happy” Murphy, his wife at the time of his death. By the time scandal arrived breathless and too late in that midtown lair, Nelson Rockefeller, as a liberal Republican, had been out of sync with his various milieus for a long time. Of course, not knowing whether you are coming or going is the very definition of even a moderate Republican these days.

That's not nearly as important as what happens to you after you die. And that is decided before you die.
