Paavo, I get what you mean about joking around and not being taboo. It's a good idea... but it definitely wont be her cup of tea!

I knew it was live. My wife was looking over my shoulder and she swore you winked at her!

Don-gruntless,

If you really do feel that way then you are one of the amazing few. Amazing to me any way.

Some people, yourself evidently included, seem to feel perfectly ok about the subject, and not have any understanding why it gets other people in such a state. I honestly wonder if you have a mental defect. Seriously!

The brain is supposed to give you strong feelings of fear around the subject of death in order to increase your odds of survival. People are being born all the time with certain brain functionality like this missing. Some people can't see blue, some can't appreciate that other people are not the same as themselves (autistics), and some don't have the proper instinct to fear death.

I have heard it said 'if you're dead any way, you wont even know about it and wnot care'... that doesn't make it any better, because right now I am alive, and I would rather give a damn and be alive than not givea damn 'cause I am dead!

I'm missing out on a demolition to write this... a four-storey block of flats less than 200meters away from my house.

Catcha later.
