You're hired. My deposit is in the mail. Chig has random video and audio clips of me you can mash.

I remember this vid from waaaaaay back. I like your ideas.

I think I'd have one trusted friend holding the remote for a soundboard of me so at any given time he could press the button and I'd say some appropriate clip over the PA.

 

Phrases like "I couldn't stand him/her", "They still owe me money", "I can see you", "Stop yawning you arsehole" and " I think I'll haunt you" would be some of the selections.

Blanche- Right on!!! Guest appearances!

 

Space- Yes, this was way before the Ark, just as LV was dying and VH was being born.  Shhh...

I missed this one on LV.  I almost didn't watch it today because the title made me worried...but...it actually made me laugh.  That would be one interesting funeral.  I just hope it doesn't happen for a very very long time.  My funeral wouldn't be as fun.  I want to be cremated and scattered so I don't know if anyone would be gathered anywhere.  Maybe a non-windy day at the beach sneaking my ashes into the water. That's all I would want.

Glad you got a little chuckle out of it, JoAnn.   Ashes in the ocean waves- sounds like a beautiful way to return to the mother ship.

Definitely top shelf.  The next step after my 80th birthday.  I am going to do this FOR SURE.

We better make our videos now , put them in the vault till needed.

 

Thanks for a GREAT idea.

 

(but I won't be so deathly white)

"I look so at peace, don't I? I almost look like I'm sleeping." That is the funniest line I've heard in weeks! Perfect delivery, Syd! This whole thing would be a perfect monologue; I could see Ellen DeGeneres doing it. 'Cept it would be highly dastardly for her to steal your stuff.

 

P.S. Okay, Lisa and Katie can have the CDs and dishes. I'll take Boodah Girl and make sure she lives the rest of her days as a pampered queen. And hey, did you ever tell us her origin story?
