It's obviously a suicide, so perhaps the jokes are in pretty poor stead now.

IMHO a handful have shown a character which, thank God, niether of my daughter would be capable of showing.
Today is the day I'll finally discover the ignore button.
My God.

How about a moderator deleting some of the stupid and very insensitive posts on this thread!

Re: Man and dog found dead on yacht

At first I wanted so bad to say "Pirates" but I would have been wrong again.

While I'm sorry for his family's loss and for the poor pooch, I don't feel bad for people that intentionally end their own lives that is their decision albeit a bad one IMHO though it may have seamed perfectly rational to them at the time.

Jokes at a bad time are some folks way of dealing with tragedy. My sweet bride will laugh at herself or me maybe even you for falling down and busting your tuckus but she will be right there to help you up, she can't help it that's just what happens.

I just said it was bad in my opinion and we all know opinions are like but holes everybody has one... No I'm not his judge nor have I claimed to be.
Actually I am capable of imagining what would drive someone to do this I've had to pray on the subject myself in the past.

Then as youve been there, pls forgive me Salty.
Personally this matter is a battle for me, last 40 years so I take things personally.
Salty, you said you "pray". imho a person who prays is a good person.
Forgiveness in front of the mob, please?
Brian.
