Reply #14: Legend has it Stormin Strom was brain dead for 70 years, yet still found a way to

[Rex]

pump out little Stroms til the ripe old age of 117. Most people now think his grunts and groans were gas escaping from ancient organs and intestines buried deep inside him. No real brain activity, but repulsively active when evoked by dark rituals. 80's man Newt shows all kinds of signs of activity, yet has no higher brain functions to speak of. Some how Glenn and Rush audibly mimic human brain patterns, yet viewed under a CAT scan, neither man has a brain or cortex. Just a dark red spot on the monitor.

In short, brain dead gets you millions if you know the right people.
