I never believed myself to be immortal.
What kind of time frame are you talking here?

Well, assuming that I'm not dying of anything contagious, and assuming that I'm not dying of anything that restricts my movement to any great extent (e.g. I'm not about to be executed, or I'm not about to freeze to death after falling down a mile-deep crevice in a remote region of Antarctica), then I'd probably try to get some pity sex. "Hey baby, your place or mine?" "Get away, you creep!" "Sob, moan, now I'll die a virgin, and it's all your fault!" "Oh, you poor loinburger... Wait, you're not contagious, are you?" "Umm, a bit, y'see, I'm dying of syphilis..." "You *******, you said you were a virgin!"

First thing I would do would be to establish Millions of Dollars worth of Life Insurance Policies...
Then I would do many of things I had never done before but wanted to do before I die... regardless of what they cost... because any debt I ran up would be covered by the Insurance policies later.
My family would be set for life, and I would at least enjoy whatever time I had left on this level of existence.

If I'm going to die in the next weeks or so then I'm maxing out the credit cards, taken a loan from the bank, and just go on a spending spree.
Vegas here I come for a week, of gambling, womanizing, and drinking.
I don't have any kids so maybe trying to knock a girl up would be on the menu.

I don't have a child
and I would like one before I died
I am not sure of the ethical issues of having a child when you know you are going to die

While as many of you know... I'm a FIRM SUPPORTER of tort reform in America... and I think that our country is full of a bunch of whiners who won't take responsablity for their own actions, so sue instead...
But in this case...

My dad quit his job and started to spend his money on travelling and leisure. He lived two and a half years more.

Depends on how short the timeframe is . . .
If it were just a couple of days I think I would just stay at home with my family and talk endlessly to my son.
If it were a matter of weeks/months, I could see going on a big trip to see more of the world before I go

Since it's your thread, why don't you set the timeperiod?
It would helps us folks quite a bit.

I'd sexually harrass as many good looking women as possible.
 ACK!

I think I would tell just about every hot woman I meet that I'm die, it's not contagious, and then I'd try to get a simpathy ****.

Hmmm... killing yourself 0.0000001 sec away from the end does seem appealing, but I'd have to change my answer with this one:
requirement: Death must be sudden and violent. (Lightning striking me would be best) and I need to know the exact time. (hopefully a digital watch thats ticking down)
I'd goto a very public place and shout something along the lines of "If fingering myself up the ass is a sin, well I dont give a **** anymore. This religion blows! There I said it! hahaha I said it. And if God doesnt like it, may he strike me dead!"
"Bang!"

Go for the ultimate experience and kill someone (preferable some complete SOB).

Strange how this premise seem to influence our values.
Stealing is ok, fraud is ok, harrassing etc...

I'd browse 'Poly
More seriously, I think I'd quickly kiss everyone I know (especially my girlfriend and my family) goodbye.
