We don't do it for pity. We do it for purpose of conversation. Death
is the great attention getter. Just don't go too far into the realm of
the unspeakable. Nobody wants to hear about the Hutus slaughtering the
Tutsis. Ask a hundred people on the street, most have heard of
neither, and the remainder would be hard pressed to recall whether it
was the Hutus or the Tutsis who got it.

You are babbling. You should post about *** if you want people to read
it.

The big model railroader in the sky sent me a postcard. He says the
most despicable level of hell is specially reserved for anybody taking
Pascal's bet. Do you own a machete?
