Excerpt from a conversation regarding the not-so-recent death of Sir Nigel Hawthorne, a British actor best known for his portrayal of Sir Humphrey Appleby on Yes, Minister and Yes, Prime Minister (I love those shows!):
Kristina: Is he really dead? I don't want him to be dead.
Dad: I'm pretty sure he died several years ago.
Kristina: I'm so sad that he's dead.
Dad: You knew he was gay, right?
Kristina: No. How do you know?
Dad: *matter of factly* It was in his obituary.
Kristina: *blinks* Well, if I didn't know he was dead, I can't have read his obituary, can I?
