When I saw the headline, I swear my first thought was, "THANK GOD!"   I feel bad about that, because I certainly don't rejoice in anyone's death, but he got on my nerves so damn bad with all his yelling.   Yes, I know I can change the channel, and I always DID change the channel, but he would always come on loud and yelling right from the get-go, so you couldn't help but hear him for a few seconds.

I also feel bad because my next thought was, "I bet he was hanging in a closet with a shoestring around his junk."   Just a thought. 

Bad me!  (slap)  Bad me!   :nono:

On those days when life is a little too much and nothing seems to be going right, I pause for a moment to ponder the wise last words of my grandfather:  "I wonder where the mother bear is?"

I once saw an interview with him. He seemed like a nice enough guy.

Around the world, TV speaker sets are rejoicing.   That said, the man was bright, dedicated and lived the American dream.

I bet U.S airways are going to get the Fluck sued!

BTW if you suffer a head injury go to the ED! I'll put .02 cents (yeah I'm that poor) that he probably had a subdural hematoma that caused his death. I'm not saying just saying!

IIRC cause of death was a heart problem he had. ( heart wall hardening or something of the like)

Interesting! Hmmm, hypertensive cardiac hypertrophy. I can't help but wonder if maybe his heart problem may have been genetic? Being that my heart problem hypertophic cardiomyopathy is very similar to his condition may have been the culprit also.It occurs 1 in 500. I mean 50 does seem kinda young for the hypertensive effects this doc is describing. TBH I don't trust any doctor fully when it comes to my heart problem because they don't have a clue as to what in the hell they are doing.

Not saying just saying!
