    For more suggestions, I'd need to go grab a book or two.

    Of course, I'd be remiss if I didn't suggest "Hugh Jorgen."

    I remember Misty flipping out on me after i used hibernate on my ice tanker. I killed her and she flipped and asked for some fiteklub. I said yes, stood there for a few minutes and then when she got me low hit hibernate. I could feel the nerdrage through the internet.

    Iggy, aren't you being too demanding? After all 15 days is hardly sufficient time for a crack staff to formulate a whitewash statement.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    15 days is ample time to formulate an apology. When I am required to apologize to any part of my customer base it certainly didn't take 15 days to do so. Why? The customers would simply walk out the door, never come back and then tell all their freinds, relatives and assosiates about the shoddy treatment they received.

    I mean it wouldn't take 15 days to do so. Because I have never had to do that. Yes, that sounds better

    Wonder if they will believe that.

    BTW Ba'a, it's starting to look like your theory earlier in this thread may be what actually happened. Nothing solid yet, but a BBC article reported...

    [ QUOTE ]
    Thai police told the BBC a hotel maid found the 72-year-old naked in a wardrobe with a cord around his neck and other parts of his body.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    The article apparently said something slightly different originally, but was later edited.

    Whatever the case, it's really sad to hear that he passed.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Very sad to hear of his death.
    Scimi and I were talking about this earlier and this possibility came up. Odd as it seems, having lost a loved one to suicide, in my mind AEA is actually a less disturbing thought. The level of despair people reach before suicide is pretty extreme. I'd hate to think he was that miserable, and more like to just think he had an accident doing something that looked silly.
    Either way, a terrible loss.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    right there with you 100%.

    I think all this murder talk is misguided and salacious--perhaps wishful. Every article I read seems to eith not mention it at all or present information from police and forensic investigators that specifically discount these rumors.

    Though a suicide always bums me out.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Same. Very much so.

    I wasn't a huge fan, honestly. He wasn't that prolific. But I did always find him to be an interesting person. I hate to think about what drives people to end their lives, and as [censored] up as this may sound, I honestly hope it was accidental AEA.

    And as for 3s. I'd say Roh (RoK ex pres) last week was one of the 3.

    wow @ the second link. It's horrid and tragic no matter what, but honestly, "accidental death" is much less haunting than "intentional suicide."

    Thanks for posting those links.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It's just unneeded. If you don't like someone for what they're known for, then why even post about them, especially in their death thread?

    Everyone's entitled to like or dislike as they please, but think about the circumstances before you go spouting off.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Love ya, Arwen, but I'll spout where I please. And I certainly hope we're not having our first argument in relation to David Carradine....

    Why post in his death thread? To note that it was sad he had passed. So what if I said I didn't care for his work. I didn't say anything about him as a person, and I don't see why the circumstances should dictate that I can't state my opinion.

    Kinky accidental death?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    i was talking to someone about this today. we were speculating about the portion of "hotel suicides" that were actually auto-erotic asphyxia accidents.

    Granted, AEA deaths might be more embarassing (not sure to what extent intentional suicide would be "embarassing" or w/e), but I'd find comfort in knowing he didn't hang himself with the intention of commiting suicide.

    I'll say this: if there's no note, my money's on AEA. I'm not trying to be morbid or disrespectful in saying this; I really would prefer to remember him as having died from AEA rather than an intentional suicide. It's just such a [censored] up way to leave and is much more traumatic for those left behind: family, friends, and (in the case of celebrities) fans. I mean the first question I asked was "why would he do it?" and wasn't able to come up with an answer. Granted I didn;t know him at all, so there could be a variety of reasons known to his friends, but even in cases of people I knew, and there's been an improbably large number of them, I was only barely able to understand why and even then only after years.

    TL;DR version: It sucks, and I really, really hope it was some stupid accident.

    A. I was kidding.
    B. The translation is "speak only good of the dead," or near literally, "of the dead speak none but good."
    C. See A

    Speak no ill of the dead is analogous to speak only good of the dead.

    not quite, but close enough for coh boards.
