You think?! So many hung on to whatever -- Betty Davis and Judy Garland come to mind. Oh, well.

You do know,death is inevitable. Most do not know that. We carry on and build statues to them…even on line. Maybe I am too old to be impressed by death. Hundreds of the unborn are killed daily and who cares! Gershon!nobody ~ Who really cared about the six million Jews? Some who did, took action get no glory. But are held for blame. Nobody is on the warpath for life? Not really. Unless it is a war, only then do lives count. Who cares about our violent cities! Nobody! The dead are free of the human coil. Panagiota

The curtain can fall at any time for the drama to end. So unpredictable is life on earth. So act well our part... that's all we can do ! Crisp and pithy, dear Gershon.!

Reminds me of the comedian Tommy Cooper who had a fatal heart attack on stage, at first the audience thought he was acting, sadly it wasn't the case and he died. Tom

It appears that I may have sensed Tommy Cooper with my 7th sense somehow.

Bugs Bunny, at the end of his performance. That's all ends all. Good one, Gershon
