Get ready for whatever post-mortal destiny awaits you, whether its an astral plane, a Hieronymus Bosch hellscape, or the baseball diamond from Field of Dreams. Fascinating, funny, and irreverent, this light-hearted memento mori will help you create your very own bucket list--for after youve kicked the bucket.
