When I was still working, I had the exquisite privilege of interviewing the GREAT Jonathan Winters. He joked about carrying on, knowing it wasnt time for the dirt nap. I had a hard time with that interview - trying to maintain my composure and not burst out laughing at the very idea of the dirt nap. What a way to word it! You can hardly even think about it without laughing. And who knows - maybe laughing at it helped him live longer (to the age of 87)!
