    That part is real. She died in a hospice in The Villages, Florida. This humor is black, but not exactly Halloweeny.
    There's a band that comes in on Thursdays (or maybe it's alternate Thursdays, I forget). The name of the band that plays in the building where people die?
    The Last Tyme Out. Really. In a hospice!
    Even though my mom had only hours to live, I thought it was hilarious.
    I went up to the desk and asked about the dark humor. Nobody had ever asked about it, and the staff and volunteers had never realized! I would have thought they'd have been the first to "get it" but nope. Just me.
    Anybody want to use that title for your zombie or undead band? There, now it's on topic!

    So sorry about your mom.

    I do think it's weird that no one ever noticed that the band's name was a little um... too appropriate for a hospice.

    Could be the group from Northwestern Illinois/eastern Iowa called:
    "You're An Hour Late And You Smell Like Beer!"
    I wonder how they got their name?
    A fancy woman's garden party had hired them, they were late and they smelled like beer!
    She named their previously unnamed group! And it "Stuck"!
