He/she may have died of old age, may have died young, perhaps of natural causes or perhaps was hit by a car or perhaps was murdered. Nobody cares.

He/she may never have spoken to you but lived close by, perhaps was a good member of the community, or perhaps was a drug addict, but you never knew the nobody you just passed in the street.

Somebody died today. He/she never lived in your community but everybody cares, everybody "knew" this person, how great they were, everybody gives out voices of sympathy.

Everybody can tell how the rich and famous touched their lives but nobody can tell how people turned thier backs.

with up so many ringing bells down...

"So give him a line in your paper.
Here's what I want you to say,
'There's lots ofthing worse than dyin' alone.
One of them's living that way'."

I'm gonna guess that guest 12:26 a.m. isn't a Wellstone fan, and is having a genuinely difficult time with impulse control.

Moronic? Who's moronic? We don't need no subatomic particles here! You can keep your social leptons and your charming quarky-quirks and your pirate bosons and your nuclear morons, too! I'm staying up at the macroscale where it's safe.

Sad, sad, sad.

Ulysis shuffeled off this mortal coil over 2,500 years ago after fearfully maiming the creature he tricked using that name.

...How many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died...

turned the stone and looked beneath it,
peace on earth is all it said..
...one tin soldier rides away...

The deputy walks on hard nails
And the preacher rides a mount
But nothing really matters much
It's doom alone that counts

And the one eyed undertaker
He blows a futile horn

Come in she said I'll give you
Shelter from the storm
