People Died Today
Both Dennis Hopper and Gary Coleman were known for their talent and achievements, as well as their defiance to the Hollywood norm. For all of these, I will remember them fondly, and feel sad that they have left us.

This post is from awhile ago, but I just wanted to mention that I love that song.
I feel guilty for thinking this, but how come all obituaries are practically the same? So-and-so lived a happy life, is "survived by" blah blah blah, some quote from the Bible, "We will miss you, Johnny, brother, dad, grandpa"... Not that I don't respect the daed or the grief that their loved ones are suffering through, but don't you think that the dearly departed would be much more honoured if their obituary was something other than an emotionless, cookie-cutter mush?

That's one phrase I'd prefer not to read when on the topic of dead bodies.But you're right. That's why my funeral's going to have clowns. Let's see how the blighters like making balloon animals in hell.
As always, no offence. Rest in peace.
Why didn't the Libertarian cross the road?

With kids you spend the first 2 years of their life teaching them to walk and talk. Then you spend the next 15 years telling them to sit down and be quiet.

Elizabeth Edwards - dead at 61 of cancer. Rest in peace.
Take all sorrow out of life and you take away all richness, and depth, and tenderness. The capacity of sorrow belongs to our grandeur. It is the furnace that melts hearts together in love.
