Funny old world

Just recently found out that a lad in my year at school was found dead in the bath,he'd been there for five weeks and it was in August so it must have been a bit gruesome. What a job some people have.

Jean-Paul Marat died in his bath. Mind you,a five inch kitchen knife was the main culprit.

Sad rather than funny. A guy I used to be friends with was found dead from a massive heart attack surrounded by pizza boxes and I later found out he hadn't been seen for several weeks beforehand. I felt a twinge of guilt for not staying in touch despite having lived hundreds of miles away for several years, but mainly I felt sad that loneliness and depression hits so many people so hard in a society where community support is rapidly declining and neighbours increasingly keep themselves to themselves.

My wife's stepfather died in the bath, and wasn't found for some time. A shame that someone should go in such an awful way. Oddly enough, the cause of death was never found.
