VSBfromH 74 Posted June 17, 2010 Sebastian Horsley "Artist Sebastian Horsley was found dead today from a suspected heroin overdose in his Soho flat" The London artist was "best known for having undergone a voluntary crucifixion. Horsley's writings often revolve around his dysfunctional family, his drug addictions, sex, and his reliance on prostitutes ... Both of his parents were alcoholics" Who could have foreseen this?!

The world has lost a true giant in every sense of the word. Manute Bol, the great humanitarian and basketball player, should never be forgotten. It is sad that you were never able to meeet him, because if you had he would always be an inspiration to you. He deserves to be honored in a way that befits his physical stature and international impact. He was truly one of the greatest human beings of all time.

Unless, of course, someone has posted exactly the same obscure death on a different thread only a few moments earlier, when you feel utterly safe in the knowledge that the very recent news of the deceased nobody would be known to you and to you only.

If you do a search and it doesn't come up, then fine. Mea culpa and move on. We all know the search facility can be hit or miss. No one like to come to a forum and read the same thing 12 times. Find a death, make sure it isn't already here (to the best of the ability of the search engine), post it - if it's called as already posted accept it with grace and move on. AD, this means you as well as everyone else. It doesn't have to be logical. It just is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
