This is hard to believe

The guy is dead now, which is not hard to believe.
So live your life and live it well.

It isn't surprising that he's dead.

What is surprising is that he actually died from an infected paper cut.


Really. I'm not kidding.

He died when a rope from a "controlled free fall" was cut. From the description, it is basically bungy jumping 1200 feet with a rope instead of bungy. Sounds like fun...I'll take 2 please!

extreme bungee jumping - his bungee chord broke. It'd been set up for months and endured some pretty hard rains, but he decided to give it one last go the day he came to pack all the stuff up.

Adrenaline junkies need to realize they don't need to risk their lives, they just need to learn to play piano and perform publicly. :)
As a good person, I implore you to do as I, a good person, do. Be good. Do NOT be bad. If you see bad, end bad. End it in yourself, and end it in others. By any means necessary, the good must conquer the bad. Good people know this. Do you know this? Are you good?

tsk....really. The worst that could happen when performing, is that you could fall off the bench. :lol2: (In that case, have the beertender bring me another bar!)

Before we were married, my wife was playing a church service (oboe) and passed out. The organist kept playing, a bunch of people brought her water, propped her back up and she played the cadenza.

I was in the balcony recording.

Extreme selfishness.
He had a daughter, and had no business doing that.

The founding of the bulk of the world's nation states post 1914 is based on self-defined nationalisms. The bulk of those national movements involve territory that was ethnically mixed. The foundation of many of those nation states involved population movements in the aftermath. When the only one that is repeatedly held up as unjust and unjustifiable is the Zionist project, the term anti-semitism may very well be appropriate. - P*D

I was once doing an outdoor Traviata and a fly (I think) flew down my throat. I don't know why I swallowed the fly...I thought I'd die.

(oh ps...ask apple about this old lady's flying leap off a platform last spring....that was fairly dangerous for an old bag like me)

At least you're not an Old Lady...otherwise that might be a little creepy. :P

Thanks...now I'll have that rhyme stuck in my head for a while now.
