LE LAVANDOU, France (Aug. 22) - The mayor of a French Mediterranean town, faced with a cemetery ''full to bursting,'' has banned local residents from dying until he can find somewhere else to bury them.

Gil Bernardi, mayor of Le Lavandou on the coast 15 miles west of Saint Tropez, introduced the ban after a court rejected his plans to build a cemetery in a tranquil setting by the sea.

Bernardi said most locals had obeyed the edict so far, but he was desperately trying to find a resting place for a homeless man who had recently passed away in the town.

''Initially, the decree has been remarkably well followed,'' the mayor said.

LOL This is funny Is this a joke??
