I don't understand some methods of suicide. Wouldn't sitting in the garage with the car running and the door closed be the way to go? I just walked across one of the Cincinnati bridges and it is freaky, especially with the short railing. Even if you wanted to end it, that seems like it would be hard to do.
I heard the car and garage method does not work anymore, for some reason. You need to light up the charcoal grill in the garage too. I read about this stuff when the Shrink and his wife did the double suicide a few years back.
i was thinking the exact same thing......just put a bullet through your temple....
a suicide prompting discussion of the method?...i don`t think anybody was being disrespectful....
Yeah, I'm sure Sir Ridley Scott would find this comment the height of respect.
That asshole set up an account. Posted 3 times in the mojo forum and hasn't been back. That was 8 years ago.
"sir ridley" can find anything he wants....i was responding to w.h.n`s comment regarding the method of suicide....
/anybody have their 'give-a-crap-o-meter handy?...i need to borrow it...
68 is too young. Especially when I consider my parents have now broken into their 60s. The saddest part is how horrible it must have felt for him to leave behind his family without saying goodbye.
inoperable brain cancer....i was thinking he might be terminal.......
imo,it makes perfect sense...he probably figured he didn`t want to go through with the whole hospice ordeal and didn`t want to put his family through it....
i bet most of us that are a little older have probably thought about just such a scenario.....
seems to me it was actually a courageous thing he did(if you`ve ever been through this with family,you know what i`m talking about)...
very sad indeed..........

Adolph Hitler did it the right way.......but why not use something bigger than a .380....(ouch).....at least a .357 magnum
