My wife just emailed me this funny piece of news:
A 94-year-old declared dead suddenly sprang up and asked when Germany were next playing in the World Cup.
When told she had been declared dead by doctors, Maria Mueller replied: “Not likely, not until I see if Germany wins the World Cup.
“There’s still life in these old bones yet, and I certainly couldn’t miss the football.”
Mrs Mueller had been found slumped over in her chair by son Bernhard Mueller, 66, at their home in Luegde. Neither Bernhard nor a local doctor could find a pulse.
