That morning I was not yet a vampire, and I saw my last sunrise. I remember it completely; and yet, I can’t recall any sunrise before it. I watched the whole magnificence of the dawn for the last time, as if it were the first. And then, I said farewell to sunlight, and set out to become what I became.

(ref’g Prof. P’s:)

```
          Now, if I might.

          Very good, sir.

          And do we dress right or left, sir?

          Most of my gentlemen favour left these days, don't think it's political.

          Never know where the bloody thing is. Bobs about like a wind-sock.

```

There were some buildings. There were these really tall buildings, and they could walk. Then there were some vampires. And one of the vampires bit the tallest building, and his fangs broke off. Then all his other teeth fell out. Then he started crying. And then, all the other vampires said, “Why are you crying? Weren’t those just your baby teeth?” And he said, “No. Those were my grown-up teeth.” And the vampires knew he couldn’t be a vampire anymore, so they left him. The end.

Okay, men, now listen. We’re going to blow out the water now and see if we can get our rear ends out of the sand. If we make it to the surface, things could still get pretty rough. Traffic’s heavy up there.

A friend of mine was up about 20 floors with a jumper a few years ago. The jumper grabbed him, they went off, 20 floors down. Just mashed 'em all to bits. You couldn’t tell which legs were which, you couldn’t tell which arms were which, it was a terrible mess. And I’ll tell ya, I almost threw up myself.
