I would repeat the Shahada and recite Surahs al-Fatihah and Ikhlas

I'd head to the bathroom and empty everything so I wouldn't soil myself when my muscles relaxed.

2 minutes? Kiss & hug my hubby & kids, smile, and tell them thank you. Shoot, think I'll go do that now. No time like the present.

Nice answer. You are quite right, why wait for the last 2 minutes of your life to do what you feel is important.

If we put the important things off until the end, I wonder if we really consider them to be important?

Get with the family or, if that wasn't possible, pack a bong.

Post some final wisecrack on twitter and/or facebook, maybe follow up with a "but seriously, folks, it's been good times" and quote the Buddha or maybe Nick Cave. Kiss the wife and kid goodbye, and then find a comfortable spot to wait for the end.

Yeah, I thought about this one too, but it's been so long that looking for the goods and getting the pipe set up would take more than 2 minutes. Any chance we could stretch it out to ten?

Get the wife on the phone, and tell her where the life-insurance paperwork is. Tell her I love her, and that my hyper-active, pain-in-the-ass chocolate lab is now HER dog, bwaahaaha!!
