Now You're Dead?

Now You're Dead?
When you hear of a persons death are you sometimes surprised that they were not already? "What? I thought they were dead years ago!"  Happens to me all the time. 

This week : Zsa Zsa Gabor.

Not with Zsa Zsa; I seem to always pick up on her medical news. But Henry Kissinger, yeah.

ETA: Ooh, Javier Perez de Cuellar, too!

It was John Glenn for me. I thought he had died over a decade ago. I must have been thinking of Alan Shepherd.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable."

I get that at every class reunion. I'm not attending any more.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

Meh. The cool cats don't seem to go to those anymore. Internet and that.

For me, it was Kirk Douglas. I thought he had been dead for a while and I was pleasantly surprised that he celebrated his 100th birthday the 9th of this month.

Abraham Lincoln. When someone told me he was dead, I was shocked because I didn't even know he was sick.

I stopped attending mine too. I must have been going to wrong place. I don't ever see anybody I went to high school with. Just a bunch of old people.

Well, it's like Lincoln said, "Don't believe everything you read on the internet."
