Death is amazing! It will be the most intensely peaceful experience of everyone's entire life.
To simply say "See him out"
Is so wise, and so respectful.
"Travel well, brother"
is precisely what I'd want to hear.
Death sometimes just pops out of nowhere,
like the snake.
I wouldn't want to lay down in a hospital with some Earthly aquaintences around me crying. That would be so stupid I would just die instantly from absurdity.
but you know, this is just how I feel.

The movie was not historically accurate at all, but who cares?
It's a movie, not a history lesson.
I have this ability to love almost every movie I see,
just because it's a movie, and there's usually SOMETHING good about it.
SOMETHING to laugh at, something to make fun of, whatever.

Loved it.

The same can be said of "Itchy & Scratchy" cartoons. Yum, yum! Love that gorey gore!

Just something to think about.
