I’ve never thought about my own death. When you die, you die. I don’t really think about anything mystical or spiritual happening. You’re just here and then you’re not.

I was raised Protestant, but the whole religion thing never really stuck; too many rules. I do like the tradition of a religious service though; the process and the theatrics. A little bit of that would be quite nice.
