The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

ita, consider this instead for the free-fall part, and paragliding for the under-'chute experience.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'd say it's a final option, not one that you carry out in haste. But then I know somebody who planned ahead by at least four months, including buying a gun and taking firearms lessons, so that she could shoot herself.

The status is NOT quo.

I'm not up for a debate about it. I'm terribly sad and struggling. Of course everyone has their opinion, but I can't talk about when suicide might be a good option. I just can't.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, that's so sad about Robin Williams.

OTOH, the Judi Dench answering machine bit at the end of Vicious was perfect.

How forceful was the 'chute opening? ISTR ita has neck/vertebrae/disk issues.

Ugh. Did not even occur to me. Good thing I have you guys.

For me it was not a thing, but my coworker's chute snapped a bit more, they said it happens 1/300 or 1/500 chutes. Not a safety problem per se, just meant they got jerked around a bit more and she had bruises where the harness was. So if that happened it would def be bad for ita.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I came right here to see if it is true. I know I have reached the age where people from my childhood die, but I am just so sad for him and his family

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

The news about Robin Williams is very sad. Heartbreaking.

I also feel really bad for my BFFs husband, who is a huge fan and also a fellow addict who he looked up to as a success

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I am more sad that I probably should be at Robin Williams' passing. The fact that it may have been suicide adds more pain. My thoughts go to his family and I wish them as much peace as possible through this.
