A dash of Lime

"Dead? Dead? Really? I'm dead?... Well that's a little inconvenient I guess!"

"Inconvenient? Inconvenient? Inconcredible more like! Look, who is this, and what kind of a sick joke do you think you're playing? It's not funny; it's not funny at all!" My reply indicated that I realised that this was a hoax.

"Well being told I'm dead isn't exactly a barrel of laughs either old man!"

For some reason, the 'old man' ending his comment reminded me instantly of Orson Welles playing Harry Lime in 'The Third Man', Well it was my favourite film. I could hear Welles saying it....
