Other times Uttar Pradesh came up

  1. I told you he was dead. I told you. I'm right. In 1994, sorry, he finally managed to get himself declared alive. His organisation, which is the Uttar Pradesh Dead People Association, has over 20,000 members. By 2004, they'd only managed to declare four of them alive. Wow. I remember reading about him where all the times he tried to prove that he was alive. He started doing things like illegal stuff, like, you know, robbing a bank.
