About this:
Monthy Pything has already been mentioned .. the parrot sketch .. However, it is worth noting that during at least ONE of the college tours they made, roadies made bets with John Cleese, that he could not add one more expression of being dead into every performance... Needless to say, the roadies lost. There exists recordings of live shows where he rants for MINUTES with just different ways of describing the vis á vis of the metabolic functions that are no more of the parrot. He ALWAYS ended up with the famous "This .... is an ex-parrot". ;)

Its metabolic processes are a matter of interest only to historians.

When ya gotta go, ya gotta go, but sometimes ya can't:
Article Source: newsnet5.com odd-news, death, private, dead-or-alive Seeded by se7en A West Virginia woman was being transferred to the Cleveland Clinic after walking the line between life and death. Doctors are calling Val Thomas a medical miracle. They said they can't explain how she is alive. They said Thomas suffered two heart attacks and had no brain waves for more than 17 hours. At about 1:30 a.m. Saturday, her heart stopped and she had no pulse. A respiratory machine kept her breathing and rigor mortis had set in, doctors said. They rushed her to a West Virginia hospital. Doctors put Thomas on a special machine which induces hypothermia. After that procedure, her heart stopped again. Her family said goodbye and doctors removed all the tubes. However, Thomas was kept on a ventilator. Ten minutes later the woman woke up and started talking.

Very strange Bill and you may well already be familiar with the late Rangjung Rigpe Dorje the 16th Karmapa who is reported to have 'played games' on his death bed through dying and then choosing to wake up again. This happened several times. Completely threw all the medical professionals.(!)

Andy, I know that there were several strange things associated with HH The 16th Karmapa's death, but dying and waking several times is one I had not heard. I do know that his body (some say only his heart) remained warm for some days after his death, and it was reported that his body shrank to the size of a child before he was cremated. There were other strange (to us) events reported, also. Most Westerners, particularly magicians, probably reject such reports out-of-hand, but I believe the reports are based on real events, perhaps exaggerated by zealous disciples. Reliable observers, however, have reported stranger things in Tibet.
Thanks for that information, Andy. Tashi delek, Bill
