    Already have. Several, literally, in cities you wouldn't believe. Tolerable for a night

    or two, especially since you meet some of the most resourceful fellow travellers.

    The will,if well pondered is a good things for the ones to live on, since it can forestall family wars.

    It's really shocking how much problems I already saw on that count. And those weren't big assets.

    Can one make a "Won't"? You know an antiwill. Something like: "And to my dear sons and daughters, who were the bane of my existance, I "WON"T" leave a single thing. To my loyal and trusting servant (I know you stole those cigars) I also "WON"T" leave a thing. Etc, etc.

    It's easier to say who will get what.

    So if the trusted servant stole the cigars you can give him at the opening of the will by: "I thank my faithful servant Jim, who already got his share in my lifetime in Cigars"

    Are you Jim's brother Eric? How'd you no his name if you're not?

    If you're so talented at scrounging, why are you doing it with the likes of us?

    Take my advice about powers of attorney (financial and medical decisions) if you have someone you can trust, and about advance health directive if you trust yourself to make decisions now while you are (relatively) competent. You don't know what condition you will be in when these decisions have to be made.

    It's become a sensitive issue. Twice I've asked that the conversation be closed. Persist with your own agenda,

    if you must. On of the nice features of open forums, on some days, they do allow the monkeys to run the zoo.
