Another suicide

It appears that another actor has taken his death into his own hands. It was reported that David Carradine hung himself in his hotel room in Bangkok. It was not a publicity stunt - take my word. He was 72. Perhaps he was just so bored and tired of life he decided to take the fast track exit? It's important to enjoy the simple things - even a bologna sandwich should delight you, with or without beer. Enjoy the sunrise, the sunset, a dinner roll, a scoop of plain vanilla ice cream, a slice of tomato, a book you have read twice already, the green grass, the yellow grass, the scorching heat, the bitter cold, the struggle to accomplish your goal - everything. Take the bad with the good. Even some very, very, very poor people in India don't take their own life.
UPDATE June 12, 2009: Now the news is saying that a forensics expert has said that Carradine did not commit suicide - he died of natural causes while playing some sort of kinky sex game with himself. Either way, it is somewhat sad.
