[quote=katex;596654]Oh well in that case, whilst we are being so flippant, I shall be collecting bets on the odds (probably very high) of me outliving the majority of Accyweb. Of course these odds will be based on the fact that I am a few decades younger than most of you. If you drive me so insane that I kill myself out of pure frustration it will still count of course, same goes if anyone murders me (wonders what price people will put on her head).

Happy head hunting, and like I said, I hope it doesn't turn out to be anyone you know, because that really would be like a kick in the teeth wouldn't it. :gooddog:

Oh well in that case, whilst we are being so flippant ( I guess this is the new way of being able to say what you want about someone )

Don't bet on it. I work in a very iffy area where someone always knows someone who will do anything for a few quid.

We have been having a collection and we are half way there. Do you have a preferance between being shot or stabbed to death :p:D

Re: Grid lock on Blackburn road
 

Shot, everyone gets stabbed these days.

Re: Grid lock on Blackburn road
 

Also I believe the word flippant means a disrespectful casualness does it not? Surely betting on whether a distressed person jumps of a bridge or not falls into that category?

Re: Grid lock on Blackburn road
 

well.....did anyone jump off then?

Re: Grid lock on Blackburn road
 

was driving over the Bay Bridge one day when some clown decided it was a good place to end it all , the CHP had two of the 5 lanes coned off while they tried to talk him down , needless to say traffic backed up and by the time most folks got to the bottleneck they only had two words for the would be jumper .......bet you can guess what they were......

another interesting point ......over 95 % of the jumpers from the Golden Gate bridge allways go over from the city side , very rarely do they go over from the ocean side

Re: Grid lock on Blackburn road
 

I dont think anybody who is desperate enough to end thier life by jumping from a high bridge has any real notion that they may be making people late home for thier tea.
