So said the dying wishes of the late Johannas Pope of Cincinnati, Ohio. So, when Ms. Pope died on a hot, blistering August in 2003, what's the next logical thing Johannas's caretaker did with her body when she died? Why, she sat her in front of the TV, of course -- for two-and-a-half years.

Unfortunately for the family members living downstairs, the air conditioning did not preserve her body as nicely as they (and any passers-by) may have liked. No doubt, having UPN tuned in during the premiere of The Mullets helped keep her soul very, very far away.
