Whopper Day

It's Wednesday whopper day. and I just had a fat juicy whopper which is quite unusual for whoppers given out on whopper days. As I was grasping the tastes of the meat with pickles and tomatoes (some of these items are usually missing on whopper days, but not today) I thought about death. I thought I am dead the first thing is that I wouldn't be able to taste this whopper anymore. then I thought about how people talk about death, saying when/if 'I am dead' then such and such. People take the all-powerful enabling notion of the 'I' and attach it to the all-powerful disabling notion of the 'death.' If you are dead then there is nothing the I would be doing. There would be no 'I' to experience the 'deadness' like there is an 'I' to experience coldness or happiness in 'I am cold' or 'I am happy.' In I am dead...you are simply no more...there's no further meaning that you can possibly conclude from that phrase about yourself. I think people often (even always) forget that even in the face of death.
