Regular  57  Pleasanton |  Subject: ROAD ID , famous last words...I'm finally getting a Road ID, but i just cant decide what to write on the last 2 lines. I know most people only have one line, but my wife only has 1 phone number (as do I). I sure dont want my mother to be the first to know if something were to happen to me... I've come up with some interesting last words, and was wondering what everybody else has written on their last line. Heres what I've come up with... If I'm not back in 5 minutes, just wait longer HELL NO! I WONT GO!!! Bike like mad, Run like hell Mess with the best, die like the rest -USMC Prop me up beside the jukebox, if I die I understand and appreciate the sincere purpose of the Road ID and the fact that it can be used to imform those that I love. Can I give the EMT's something to laugh about after they save my life, or is this an "all business" type of thing? |

In middle school we had a crazy assignment where we had to write our own epitaph (is that the words? What would go on our gravestone. Mine was, ironically, "I tried". Maybe that. My new sport lends yet another layer of irony to it.

Extreme Veteran 529 Harbor City/Torrance/Carson | Subject: RE: ROAD ID , famous last words... I am going to get one and I was thinking of putting in my medical insurance which is Kaiser Permanente. Sometimes, the hospital you end up with would still cost you hundreds if not thousands of dollars instead of a $50 urgent care copay... Other than that I'd put in, I'm God's gift to women...NOT Hahaha! Edited by arkmann 2011-06-01 12:15 AM |

Champion 4835 Eat Cheese or Die | Subject: RE: ROAD ID , famous last words... DIETRIING - 2011-05-31 9:40 PM Can I give the EMT's something to laugh about after they save my life, or is this an "all business" type of thing? I always try to make the people saving my laugh. It lightens the mood  My best was after a bad ski accident. I was laying in the ER after they stabilized me and a younger nurse had to put in a catheter. I got coherent just long enough to say "I was laying in the snow for a while so there may be some shrinkage." You have to say it with a morphine slur though. She chuckled, the older nurse in the room just shook her head. I was pretty proud of myself for that. Then I passed out again. |

My wife bought mine for me. Last line is "Acta Non Verba - Be Iron" (Action not Words)
I really like mine, but another great one is "Cremate on High" For some reason my wife doesn't find that funny.
