Death isn't so bad.

It's the dying that sucks.

great site thanks!

and char, always reminds me of an old joke

"my grandfather died peacefully in his sleep, unlike those poor people in the car he was driving, they must have been terrified"

something like that.

Well, everybody born more than 125 years ago... is now dead. Guaranteed. We got to all move on eventually to make room for the new people. Whether they be humans or intelligent radioactive mutant weasels.

My current wallpaper is a shot from the LA Public Library website of a bunch of 1920s bathing beauties on the beach. They're all trying to shoot helium balloons out of the sky with bows and arrows, and a guy in the background is running away to avoid the falling arrows. It's a really hilarious and surreal shot, but I look at it every once in a while and think, damn: if any one of them is still alive, she's over 100 by now.

Heh. Like javelin catching. Or death by Jart. Everyone remembers Jart, right?

Me too!! Sounds like a hilarious photo.

This site is awesome. For alternative counter measures, you might want to check Assimov's "The Last Question" though... He makes a very interesting point there...

Click here.

The girls-and-arrows picture is the fourth thumbnail down from the top of the page. Click on it to see the large version.


There are a lot of good photo collections on that site: back up to http://www.lapl.org/virgal/ to see the complete list. There are two collections of tabloid news crime photos from the '50s that leave little to the imagination. Since we were talking about death to start with :-).
