Being the legal type that I am... make sure that your witnesses meet the definitions of a qualified witness under your state's law. Most states are pretty specific and have weird nuances that if not followed to the letter of the law, can make your document moot.

I think it is fantastic that you are doing this - wills need to be made and also updated. Regardless of where you live, if you make your own will, make sure you do it in accordance with your state's laws.

Why isn't there a checkbox marked "cuisine" on that list of options there, Rich?

My wife has been working for a tax lawyer who informed her on Friday that, amongst other cool legal perks, he will draw up our wills at no cost to us. We'll have advanced directives and such done at that time too, I imagine.

Damn, that remings me of an old tabletop RPG that I used to play. There was a fast food joint called Tasty Ghoul, you can figure out the context.

An option on your driver's license was to donate your body to Tasty Ghoul.

I played one game with Killer Clowns and food stands marked 'Hobo Dogs'.
