Now he's fun little anecdote I get to share.
Anyways, I guess people just assume you're dead when your heart stops but that's not really true, is it?

We might want to move to a different thread if we’re going to get into it but you’re right that’s not really true and accurately pinpointing the moment of death and even defining it has admittedly become much more difficult. It’s a huge subject and a fun one to talk about. The differences between alive and dead and living and non-living and all that. But no one comes back from the dead. Anything more on it and let’s go to bitch box or your day or one of the conversational threads.
