600.43CALLME::MR_TOPAZThu Nov 30 1995 12:589
       
       Shame on you, Hangs.  In Mme B, she commits ritual suicide at the
       end of the show, and, as surely you must know, she does so by
       plunging the knife into her throat area, which, on even the most
       wottled diva, does not quite reach the belly area.  So, absent an
       operation on your plumbing, you'd need to do the ritual throat
       removal rather than disembowelment.  Sorry.
       
       --Mr Topaz
