I may be dead

Wife is away at a meeting tonight. I have the munchies. Found party tray of assorted meats in fridge. Have no instructions to leave it alone. Tried to resist. Could not resist. May be dead in a couple of hours - but I die full!
 
It has been nice knowing you.
Can I have the Jag?

Dave :devilgrin:
 
Dave , you rascal.
Being quick sometimes wins the prize
 
:lol:

Glad I ~didn't~ see this last eve. The 404 this AM woulda FREAKED me.
Instead, I was just anticipating snow. :wink:
 
If you're alive to read it - you reminded me of one of my very favourite jokes

An elderly man lay dying in his bed. In death’s agony, he suddenly smelled the aroma of his favorite chocolate chip cookies wafting up the stairs. He gathered his remaining strength, and lifted himself from the bed. Leaning against the wall, he slowly made his way out of the bedroom, and with even greater effort forced himself down the stairs, gripping the railing with both hands. With labored breath, he leaned against the door-frame, gazing into the kitchen. Were it not for death’s agony, he would have thought himself already in heaven: there, spread out upon newspapers on the kitchen table were literally hundreds of his favorite chocolate chip cookies. Was it heaven? Or was it one final act of heroic love from his devoted wife, seeing to it that he left this world a happy man? Mustering one great final effort, he threw himself toward the table, landing on his knees in a rumpled posture. His parched lips parted; the wondrous taste of the cookie was already in his mouth; seemingly bringing him back to life. The aged and withered hand, shakingly made its way to a cookie at the edge of the table, when it was suddenly smacked with a spatula by his wife. "Stay out of those, she said, they are for the funeral!"
 
The user data shows he was last on line at 8:30 AM today. The last time he posted was when he started this thread. I say the jury is still out as to whether he survived Ms. Basil's coming home.
 
He was a good man. He will be remembered fondly. As will his love of assorted meats. :cryin:

You win Bill, that one made me spray coffee on my keyboard!
 
I think we could all be persuaded to go to the funeral, as long as Mrs. Basil has a cold cut buffet afterwards
 
That buffet after has already been finished, but I do have to pick up the Jag.

Dave :devilgrin:
 
You think he's just laying low to scare us? :confuse:
 
Any time now, he'll fool us all and say it was a joke!
And I already got my suit cleaned

Dave :wall:
 
Almost 24 hrs since he posted. body must be cold by now.
Kind of like a Italian cold cut sandwich
 
There's a lot of desert in New Mexico.
We might not find out for weeks.

Dave :cry:
 
The wife was away at a meeting.
Probally bringing the whole horde home
afterwards for sandwiches.
A mob of hungry ladies.
Basil standing there with mayo and crumbs on his face.
The body may never turn up.
One of those " Hoffa" things.
 
For my money, that 404 page was MUCH too pretty... the plot thickens.
