HA, HA! I'M OUTTA HERE


FAMOUS people have a knack for being witty when they're about to die. In his upcoming book, "Morbid Curiosity," out in October from Perigee, Alan Petrucelli recounts some of their famous last words. Liberace: "It's beautiful in heaven, Mother. Yes, of course I'll play the piano for you." Elvis Presley: "I'm going into the bathroom to read." James Brown: "I'm going away tonight." Eugene O'Neill: "I knew it. I knew it. Born in a hotel room and Goddamn it! Died in a hotel room." Tallulah Bankhead: "Codeine, bourbon." P.T. Barnum: "How were the receipts today at Madison Square Garden?" Oscar Wilde: "Either that wallpaper goes or I do." Dylan Thomas: "I've had eight straight whiskeys, I think that's the record." Joan Crawford: "Damn it! Don't you dare ask God to help me!" Gary Gilmore: "Let's do it!"
