Cancer is a bitch, I lost quite a few family to it.

Sorry to hear it Posh. Life IS short.....so live it to the fullest.......with no negativity. That's my moto.

whatever... living is the longest thing you'll ever do.

Miss Dalai Lama has spoken.

Also 80 year old people you aren't close to isn't a tragedy. 80 year old people you are close to isn't even a tragedy. I would say it's closer to a miracle than a tragedy to be honest.

Well, i'm not really all that sad about her exactly. It's just her time, plain and simple. However, the thing i'm sad about is how 80 years is considered a *life*. People should live forever IMO.

I would only be willing forever if my body didn't start breaking down over time and use. If we could refine genetic engineering, transhumanistic robotic transplants, fine - But I do NOT want to get to a point where strangers have to change me. Quite frankly, the idea of getting old to me is repulsive and frightening.

i'll do that for you now if you like ...


or give you a bath - even better.


look, if you cant reach your back in the shower - just give me a shout.

This is a thread about dying people, actually. So if you could have a little respect that'd be stellar.

no, this is just a really bad thread that needs humor.
