We need Paul Harvey to tell us the rest of the story.

Uh oh! Ten minute penalty in the geezer box.

I thought the Zombie Apocalypse would be much bigger.

Didn't Stephen King write that book?

Reminds me of the Woody Allen comment. When asked what words he wanted to hear at his funeral said he wanted to hear "LOOK HE IS ALIVE"

"The corpse has now been returned,"
What's the deposit on that container?

"It was a fright. ... I'm very happy because what mother has a son that they say is dead then turns up alive?" she said. "

Gosh, isn't there some book or other about something like this? Seems familiar, somehow.

Well, it'd be an easy mistake to make ... all them folks down there south of the Gulf of Mexico look alike, y'know ...

Guess car washers around there don't see their families quite enough.

If I had the chance to do this, I would DEFINITELY do it in zombie makeup. Except the kind of people that would show up at my wake (aka my family) probably would pretend they didn't notice just to piss me off.

Showing up at your own wake is going to mess up the probate.

Note to self: At whatever gathering takes place after I'm cremated, I think a cell phone set to vibrate would be a fun touch.

Take out the phone before scattering my ashes over an outdoor food event. Safety first!

For me it would be ghost make-up not zombie make-up with maybe a sheet and definetly roller skates (a primitive form of roller blades that are easier to use).

Then I'd roll over to people and ask "who's in the coffin?", "does it feel real hot in here to you?" or say "wow that some bad gas you've got there, smells like sulfur."
