We've probably all read accounts of food, jewelry, money, even pets and slaves being packed into tombs or caskets with the dead. Thought it might be fun to ask.... What would YOU take with you for the next life???? -------------------- Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Gosh, Jen, Now What Do You Think I'd Take?       #50708 - 03/15/04 09:47 AM Edit Reply Quote Bevvy Reged: 11/04/03 Posts: 5918 Loc: Northwest Washington State JACK DANIELS! -------------------- <img src="http://home.comcast.net/~letsrow/smily3481.gif">Bevvy Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     I didn't even have to open the message and I knew, Bev!       #50712 - 03/15/04 09:50 AM Edit Reply Quote jenX Reged: 08/11/03 Posts: 3252 Loc: Richmond, VA What ELSE would you take BESIDES the Jack, ya nut!?

Very cool and classic song. It will always be a hit. I heard the badn broke up not too long after that song became a hit and the chica's are currently D.J's (their original vocation).

I believe I would want nothing to change be grateful for the things I have, the life I've been given and the love I've received. I'd would want to be in loving memories of all I've known all I've meet and all that have loved and cared for me. Yes I would say to bring with me to the next life all I have in this life, which is happiness, need some bare essentials, like a great book to read and some great music, pictures of my children and family. My favorte relaxation cloths and a great bottle of Wine and a soft cuddle blanket. I love music any kind even foreign, so a variety of music. I would want to me to be free. I would want the ability to be a great guardian angel and help those in time of need, But most of all peace.
