    If they hadn't released the details, everyone would think he committed suicide.

    I was going to say the exact same thing. This is about the most embarrassing way to go out.

    Embarrassing for whom?

    Not the dead guy.

    He's........dead.

    Can't be embarrassed if you are dead.

    I suppose you mean the family and friends.

    Maybe. Maybe not.

    Some people don't like to think that other people are sexual in any way.

    They have a name. Prudes.

    Some people have a religious problem with suicide thinking it prevents you from getting into heaven. For those family members, suicide is FAR FAR more embarassing to the family then pretty much anything else.

    Suicide also provides the family and friends with the embarrassment of "failing" to "save" the dead guy.

    So, I would say suicide is easily more embarrassing to more survivors than sex death stories.

    Thats a selfish way to look at it...its HIS death, not his families. I dont know what HIS beliefs are but having rope tied around my member in a closet to get an orgasm is not the way Id want to go/ have people remember my last moments.

    Everybody (most) have done some freaky sexual stuff...doesnt mean we want the world to know about it

    That is how you feel now.

    Your anticipation of future embarassment may or may not change your behavior so that you won't be embarrassed if you were to survive a mishap.

    Your imagining of what the embarassment might be like for you if you die that way is the imagination of someone who is alive.

    But, please, explain to me how you could be embarrassed after you have died?

    I can assure you, that Carradine is not currently suffering any embarassment.

    Now that I think about it, besides dying while some chick is going reverse cow girl on you, is there a better way to go?

    Perhaps, but what about the idea of telling the truth? Isn't that what journalism is supposed to be about? Isn't that what we expect from the press?

    If the press starts covering facts up and trying to keep the messy facts from public view, that's a very slippery slope that leads to even bigger problems . . .

    Should they be reporting what's going on in your bedroom tonight?

    After all, you could be elected president someday. The people have a right to know the truth about you.

    I'm not a celebrity, and I wasn't found hanging by a rope, naked, in a Bangkok hotel room.

    Glad you recognize my presidential potential. :) If I ever make it to the Oval Office, I want you as my Secretary of Humor.

    What? No "Kink Fu" headlines?

    I don't know this for sure, but it seems to me that wealthy 72 year old men don't go to Bangkok to engage in sexual activity with persons over the age of consent.

    How can we be sure? Perhaps the press is covering it up.

    We'd make a great team. The S2 party. Do you suppose we'd send the Lakers to Gitmo?

    I'm just glad that the Bangkok Police Department was willing to withhold the fact that he was wearing an Obama tee shirt when he died. That would have been REALLY embarrassing... :^P

    Ah, so there WAS a value to his death.

    :)
