Canonical Lists of Old * Never Die, they just ... =================================================
Revised: 15 January 1996
Maintained on: http://www.yotta.com/rechumor
------------------------------------------------------------------------- INTRODUCTION
------------
We all know that no one really dies, they just have something happen to
them in a rather final manner.
To find out what will happen to you in a few years, read on.
Thanks to Mark Israel for starting this list, and especially for those
of you who continue to add to it.
And, please don't complain that some are really stupid. I know they are.
This list is posted the first Tuesday of each month into rec.humor.

PS: If you have any more jokes to add to this list, please send them to me.
