Tempus Fugit 214 Posted December 6, 2005 Not really the right thread for this, but as a stupid way to die, this is hard to beat. A definite Darwin award nominee. Steven Zorn promising young rap artist, died aged 22 after accidentally shooting himself with a pen gun. Tragic but also hilarious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anubis the Jackal 77 Posted December 7, 2005 Frederick L "Dick" Ashworth, has died aged 94. He was the weaponeer on the B29 that dropped the atomic bomb on Nagasaki. It was his job to arm the bomb. Does anyone know if there is any truth in the legend that one of the Atomic B-29 crew members became so remorseful about his role in the raid that he hid in an Italian monastery for decades?

VSBfromH 74 Posted December 9, 2005 take a look at the pic of the worlds oldest person and pray ,as i am, that you dont live that long! "She is bed ridden and requires continual care, but apart from being slightly hard of hearing, she is otherwise said to be in good health" Surely that's a contradiction?! I could understand it coming from an NHS manager, though: "Mrs. Hongo is bed ridden and requires continual care, but she's costing us money and we require the bed, so we've discharged her" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
