I can't recall if I ever went to one, but I'll say yes.  

I think the best display I recall was the Tate London's "Roast Beef and Liberty" exhibit.  Halve or more of the art was anti-French propaganda. 

Museums: art or history.

I like Boston. Haven’t been for quite some time, but I like it. Roast Beef and Liberty sounds interesting, I’ll look it up.

Live forever or be remembered forever.

Ohhh. Tough choice sort of. I think be remembered forever. I wonder if living forever might make life seem less precious…? Less meaningful maybe if we knew we had forever anyway. And then…if that forever is in a decrepit old feeling body…what fun is that anyway? But…in a decent middle aged body and mind…couple hundred years might be fun joy
 

Buried or cremated (not any time soon of course sweat_smile)

I always thought cremation. My mother was cremated, she wanted to be placed under a birdbath in our backyard that she liked. But then we sold the house and 30 years later I drive by and no birdbath.  So, it bugs me. My father was also cremated, he was supposed to have a military ceremony. My sister and I spent 4 years on the phone with the military, they finally told us the warehouse with WW2 documents burned down in the 70s. So, his ashes are still in my apartment. Maybe I want to be put in the ground. But the preparation is wasteful and bad for the environment, so I think just deposit me. 

The old quote is we die twice, first when the last breath leaves our body, again when the last person says our name. 

Would you prefer to be remembered in a poem or name on a building.

Oh that’s kind of sad about your folks. 
Not sure why but the thought of being cremated creeps me out. So does being in a coffin. Not sure why cause I do believe dead is dead. And I agree the burial thing is wasteful. Now there are some new ways of composting a body. It’s kind of big in parts of California. I think since I’m a Veteran that I have the option of burial at sea. That’s the way I’d like to go out. It’s got a romantic flare to it in some odd way. 
 

Remembered in a poem. That’s nice. 
 

Wake or memorial some time later?

A memorial. Maybe an Irish wake. 

Owe money or owe a favor
