On the matter of state funerals

300 pages long. I've decided that, if I ever were to become President, my state funeral instructions would be
much shorter: a page or two, at most.
In fact, I think I'll lay them out right now.
My other option was to have the corpse emptied by a taxidermist, then filled with candy and toys, so that lots
of little children could play pinata.

- Build giant catapult facing the Chesapeake Bay.
- Stuff corpse with explosives.
- Launch.
- Enjoy the fireworks!
