Well, maybe not.

7. I should focus on the sad anguish of this tortured soul, but I can't help

wondering how many jumpers have killed others unintentionally as they landed? I guess I'm not supposed to think about this, but I know it has occurred. ....

Sad, sad, sad. And, like the OP, I'm so overwhelmed by all this craziness right now, it is becoming harder to respond empathetically and not cynically.....

8. The police pulled him up to safety...

:thumbsup:

He wanted Pope JP2 to start a Vatican lottery to help orphans (no shit)...

9. Wow. Now, that's the way to call attention to a good cause.

Maybe someone will go forward with the idea, since it wasn't getting any traction beforehand.

Or maybe the Vatican can sell some of its collection of obscenely valued artifacts to give to the orphans. (Yeah, right.)
