You know you're getting older when you listen to the radio and think, "Hey, I want that song played at my funeral." Don't act like you haven't done it.
As I am learning to embrace my inner redneck, I am considering being rolled out of the sanctuary to the heartfelt strains of "Freebird". Nothing says 'end of the show' like a Skynard anthem. I'm going to stipulate that lighters be passed out to the mourners on the way into the service.
