What Happens When You Die?

As John Garfield's character in "Body And Soul" says -- "Everybody dies." If today were that fateful day, what would happen to your equipment and your music collection? Do your spouses, relatives, friends, etc. have any idea about its value, both financial and emotional? Is there any piece of equipment or music you would want to be buried/cremated with?

Me, they'll lay me out on a Marshall stack and set it afire while showing "What's Opera Doc?" My music collection will be boxed up and sent to a storage facilty with each box being labeled "Rosebud". The equipment will be distributed to my relatives, non of whom will have the slightest appreciation of its value.

This is like the joke about two audiophiles getting together and one says to the other
"hey did you hear that gunbei died."
The second responds
"I didn't even know he was sick, wow what did he have?"
"I'm not sure, I think it was Levinson, CJ and Soundlabs."

LOL.

This reminds me of a conversation between four year old Wheezer and his eight year old brother Jack as he was preparing to fight a duel.

Jack - "I guess I'm gonna get killed...Wheezer!"

Wheezer - "Yes sir!"

Jack - "If I get killed you can have my pocket knife."

Wheezer - "Really? Boy, I hope you get killed!"

Jack - "Heeyyyy!"

I have a lot of new gear, so you'll have to wait until I update my virtual system before you start placing dibs.
