Oh, Crap!
I almost wonder what that poor zookeeper's last words were? Interesting facts about death and dying. Thanks for visiting my site and commenting.

What a horrible, yet oddly touching, anecdote.

My mother attempted to expire upon the throne so that the nurse would not
have to clean up after her afterwords. My mother was a nurse, you see, and knew that people's muscles, of course, relax when they finally give up the "ghost."

Thank you, Justsouno...
it's comments like
that, that make the hours upon hours I spend pouring over the national death registry (to compile the "death by the numbers" part) worthwhile ...
practically.

I wasn't sure if anyone else would "get" the title, jollyjeff.
But, when I first came up with it, I laughed so hard to myself (like the mental patient I am) I just had to "go with it".

Nickie Fleming, that is the most disgusting story...
I've ever heard.
Had I been there when that happened ... I would have run out the house screaming ... and never returned.

This was most unusual. Funny if death is funny.

You're not born in Dendermonde???
'cause we are famous for our jokes about manure and other excrements! btw, the best one happened at home. This was in the fifties. My grandfather went to the toilet (a shag out in the garden) and put off his pants. Unfortunately, his belt hung down in the loo... He did not notice anything, and came back into the house, the belt still loose. When he grabs it, a roll of shit is catapulted into the air, and smashes against the ceiling of the kitchen. My mother, her brothers and their mum have been laughing for days, and nowadays my mother still gets it when she thinks of it!

Oh, is it ever!
By the way, apologies to anyone who vomited out any internal organs after reading this. The next few columns should, hopefully, be less quease-inducing. (Well,
somewhat.)
