"When you are dead, you don't know that you are dead. It is difficult only for the others. It is the same when you are stupid."

(Philippe Geluck--Belgian actor, cartoonist, comedian and painter)

I disagree....."This life's hard, but it's harder if you're stupid."

Jackie Brown in "The Friends of Eddie Coyle"

Being stupid is difficult for the stupid. I know a few folks that proved that easily enough :)

Oh, you mean mormons.....well yeah, I guess it does apply then.

I agree with Steve's point 100%.

I've lived a long, happy and productive life. But it's beginning to be less productive (I'm retired, though I remain busy.)

I adore my family and my precious furry children. Many of my closest friends have already disappeared among the stars (or wherever they go) and that hurts - a lot. I miss them very much.

Health issues are becoming more of a nuisance and I have a medicine cabinet that looks like a mini-pharmacy. Pain limits what I am able to do. I love playing on the computer, but I can't do it for long because it makes my back hurt.

Reading is about the only thing that doesn't hurt.

I'm not afraid of death. Dying, maybe - depends on the circumstances. But at this point, when the Grim Reaper shows up, I hope he will give me a minute to say good-bye to those I love, and then I will go willingly into that dark night. I'm ready.

You need a lap top computer so you can recline while using the computer. It makes a huge difference.

I argue with my older sister about nothing after death. Then last night she told me when she dies she wants her ashes spread out over such and such place. I said "I'll be damned if I will go to that much trouble." She got mad and said she'd come back and haunt me. I encouraged her to do so, then I'd believe in life after death. Bring it on sis. I told her.
