The New York Times has a collection of thirty obituary videos in which the still-breathing subjects have participated. (Ten more are in production.) The paper makes a guarantee to the living dead that it will not reveal their involvement until they have made the journey into the next world, but it did tell E&P that "the completed group includes one former president, a Nobel Prize winner, and a playwright." Since we've been kind of half-assing it all day and it doesn't seem like some bolt of inspiration is gonna come along between now and drinkin' time, let's just throw it out there: Who do you make for the BEYOND THE GRAVE segment?

Oh, LaBute is a good one. UM but you know: ALBEE?
