Thinking of epitaphs, might we share our favourite last words? I know there are lots of sites, but perhaps just the ones we remember might be revealing?

They can’t possibly hit me at this dist…. attr General Custer.

It is new.

I’ve observed that the quotes are often fascinating, and if changed frequently can be easily missed. This one instantly grabbed my attention and I had to use it.

Of course if you read this after I’ve changed it again, you won’t know what it was now!

Back to the topic ...
