LOL on the Big Lebowski reference! That was a stitch!
As for funeral music - Iron Maiden - Die with your boots on... and then sprinkle me over the lake, or find some way to mix me into gasoline and burn me in the engine of whatever I happen to be driving at the time. I wonder what kind of deposits that would leave? (Please - no underwear skid mark jokes)

In past times there have been instances of people being buried alive by accident. Some people were so paranoid about it that they requested that bells or other warning devices be attached to their coffin so they could sound an alarm if they woke up after being buried. To my knowledge, no one ever sounded the alarm.

There is something about people being buried alive in the Voodoo culture.
People can be given certain drugs which slows their system down so much they go into a sort of coma and appear dead.
This can last for many days, hence the people are buried.
They are then dug up later hence giving the myth of zombies rising from the dead.
I saw it on telly once so it must be true

Go see or rent "The Serpent and the Rainbow" it's a Wes Craven (of Nightmare on Elm Street fame) film about the voodoo culture in Haiti I belive. The tag line for the film is "Don't bury me, I'm not dead!" Pretty good flick. That should give you the willies enough to go the cremation route!
