Leary on Brain Hemorrhages


Comas are expensive. You've got to plug in cords. You've got to pay the electric bill. You've got to have round the clock nurses. That's why the aneurism is the way to go. Your head blows up and the whole thing is over with.
Don't you wish you could have a brain hemorrhage whenever you wanted to? That would be an extra added bonus. A built in human body ejection seat. An out door. All you have to do is think really hard, close your ees and BLAM! You are gone.
You're at the office, behind your desk, bored, bent, broken. It's a beautiful day outside. You want to go hiking. You close your eyes. You concentrate and BLAM! Your heard blows up. They have to send you home. you can't sit around answering phones all day--you have no head. You'd just be holding the phone up where your head used to be--waving it above your neck--people on the other end of the line going, "Hello? Hello? Must be one of those headless people. They should't even have jobs."
Help the headless. See? You'll even get the sympathy. All the antiheadless people--all the people with heads--will abuse and ignore you and then--the goverment will step in to answer the pleas of the headless and their supporters and soon there will be prosthetic heads you can screw on and healdess hotlines and special dogs with huge furry heads who walk beside you and see everything. you'll get the goverment grants and free food and special vans with sensor headlights that act as eyesballs--you'll drive and eat and visit Alaska!

Help the headless, folks. Sure they can drink. But they can't read. Help the headless. Help the homeless. Help the headless homeless. Almost everyone who's headless is homeless. Because once the head blows up, they can't remember where they live. 1
