#1 What can I say.... We feel lowly from time to time and have to read the message written on the lawns in the secret shadow writing.

#2 Shipman, whose suicide was immediately condemned by victimsâ relatives as a final act of cowardice, was nicknamed "Dr. Death" after a horrific, 23-year-long killing spree in which he murdered at least 215 of his patients.

What's the big deal here? No one's tax money is going to go towards keeping the guy fed and clothed, since he inflicted on himself that which he inflicted on a lot of his former patients. He's DEAD. This is a Good Thing.

"They had hoped that one day they would be able to find out why ... and would have some understanding of why he did what he did. Now, of course, they are never going to know."

Oh no, more cases of Root Cause&trade Syndrome. Who gives a rat's ass about root causes? Is anyone really going to feel better knowing the why? What if he had simply said, "Because I felt like it"?

Good heavens, I can't for the life of me understand some people and their tendencies to fixate on the weirdest things.

#4 Indeed they do John. I've lived in a Farraday Cage for most of my adult life, I feel safer and less angry knowing that the DNC can't read my DNA. Unfortunately I am required to depend on my Goldie Hatfield to take care of most of my shopping and like most Goldies he can't make change and is quite color blind. I think Hatfield is also ripping me off....
