Depends at what age, that glorious blazing death. Oh and OBL doesn't seem like evil enough to ensure endless glory. I'd rather the blazing death happen when I am saving cartloads of children...

I mean, I think I could be convince to give away my last decade of life, if I was post-70/75. It is indeed unlikely to be a pleasant decade. OTOH, I am not doing a Achilles number and choosing glorious death at 30. I mean, lots of thing to live for at 30. As to posthumous fame, fuck that. What has posthumous fame ever done for us? You can't get laid on the back of posthumous fame... unless you believe in the 70 virgins thingy...

In theory I'd like to die fighting a duel or an a battle or something. But not now, later.
