Q: Did you check for blood pressure?
A: No.

Q: Did you check for breathing?
A: No.

Q: So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?
A: No.

Q: How can you be so sure, Doctor?
A: Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar.

Q: But could the patient have still been alive nevertheless?

<long pause>

A: Yes, it's possible he could've been alive and practicing law somewhere.

Q: Do you recall the time that you examined the body?
A: The autopsy started around 8:30 p.m.

Q: And the patient was dead at the time?

<pause>

A: No, he was sitting on the table wondering why I was doing an autopsy on him.
