I know what you mean but in the end, death is not something you can dress up to soften the blow - a good friend of mine hanged himself last year - how can you dress that up ?

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!" - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

Pinin' for the fjords.

I need to create a document so that is the first line of my obituary.

I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

According to Chambers, "cease" and "decease" come from different roots.

And I wonder...

does the people really find this by coincidence? Or do they really have so much free time?

M.D.V.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Some math enthusiasts do this - they are fond of numbers, and perhaps do this as a hobby.

I came across this one the other day: 6210001000.

Work out what's strange (unique) about that one, or scroll down...

This number contains
6 zeros
2 ones
1 twos
0 threes
0 fours
0 fives
1 six
0 sevens
0 eights
0 nines
i.e. 6210001000 and is "self-describing"

I used to live in Hemel Hempstead and must have walked, or driven, past that one hundreds of times without ever noticing it.

Easily done. Just this afternoon someone alerted me to one not so far from me, that I missed when I had gone for a walk explicitly to find them. They just blend in!

Haven't you heard about Numerology? It's a believe that there is a divine relationship between numbers. Probably lots of people have this weird "hobby".

0, 6, 9, and sometimes 4 are holey. But 8 is the holiest of all. Laugh | :laugh:
