    Suicidal Celebs

    Well it does kinda screw up your morning. I had that once, someone threw themselves under a tube. Had to get out and catch a couple of buses to get me to work. Selfish bastard made me and probably quite a few people late for work that morning. Wasn't until my boss saw it on the news when he got home that he gave me the benefit of the doubt and took the tardiness off my personnel file. You rang? regards, Hein At the risk of being accused of cod-psychology or talking rubbish, an hour's inconvenience is hardly here nor there when measured against someone for whom things have got so desperate that throwing oneself under a train seems the best option. I agree its a selfish act but the only people (imo) entitled to legitimate complaint are the train driver and the family of the deceased.

    Not a bad shout, although whether Mr Shakur could do "Seven Seas of Rhye" the justice it deserves, idk. Interestingly, Queen's first single release was entitled 'Keep Yourself Alive'.
