Braaaaaaaaainssss!!
Some zombies respond to the whole bridge-jumping fad I love so much.
Chris Walcott, Jonathan French, and Brian and Jenny Brick mindlessly repeat the "Oh, but they'll go somewhere else" mantra. It's not really true (remember, these people are crazy), and it undercuts the value of the bridge, that John Rutherford understands:
Again and yet again the Golden Gate Bridge is taking the blame for providing a service for those who may well need it. Would you rather find your loved one too near the automobile's tail-pipe?
Stan Hall is pissed that someone stopped whining about Iraq for a second.
Today's installment of "Wheeeeee-SPLAT," a series on Golden Gate Bridge suicides, is from a person who not only failed at life, but failed at ending it, John Kevin Hines.
He went to Walgreens for his last meal -- Skittles and Starbursts.
Geez, put some variety in your last meal. Get a candy bar or something. It's not like you're going to have to worry about being sick afterwards if you eat too much.
He wanted to end his life by leaping off the bridge because he thought a gunshot or an overdose of pills would hurt too much.
Oh, that's hilarious. What did Mom think?
"Please, God, don't let him be like Christopher Reeve."
If you're telling the story later, shouldn't you... you know... polish it up a bit?
