I have to share a crazy and disturbing story

[TheKinz]

I am playing in a charity golf scramble this afternoon and I get a text from my wife saying call me asap ( I never get this). I call and she says:

Her and my two kids (6 & 8) are biking on a path around a huge retention pond here in town. They go around the circle the first time and there was an older man (60 ish) sitting on a park bench. My daughter says mommy he looks sad. They continue around the loop and stop at the car for a drink of water. They start around the path again and my daughter is driving ahead when my wife notices that the man is lying on the ground. She yells at my daughter to stop and she does. My wife runs ahead of her and this guy had shot himself in the head and blew away most of his face. Oh my god!!! He actually stood up and faced my family as they were approaching. My wife had her a pop but never thought it was a gun shot. My kids did not see the scene but sensed what happened. Tons of cops came etc etc. He apparently left a note as well.

How weird is this?? My wife expectedly is a little un-nerved and my daughter just fell asleep saying she did not feel well. I guess we will have to keep an eye out for any weird behaviors. Part of me feels bad and part of me thinks he is a gutless piece of shit. To stand up and move and make sure he was in the path of my kids was unexplainable and disturbing..

had to share..going to pour a cocktail

That's Sick ! Glad the kids didn't see this.

Though I've never tested this theory, I'm pretty sure that if you shoot yourself in the head you might deserve a pass if you then stagger to your feet with no regard for whether children are present.

Let this be a lesson to us all

If you're going to shoot yourself in the head, swallow the gun at an angle pointing upwards. Don't try the ol' StickItInYourEar plan.

Did this happen frequently in the '30's? Is history repeating itself?

kinda what i was thinking....i would imagine the guys troubles were so bad, that he couldnt stand it anymore, he wasnt doing anything to try and scar your kids.......if i read your story right, you arent saying he shot himself right in front of them, that they just circled back around and found him dead?

I doubt he ever thought twice about your kids seeing it, or anything else..if u are distraught enough to do this to yourself, you obviously arent thinking straight...

On a positive note, your daughter is obviously very observant and compassionate if she noted how sad he was from the path......hopefully those qualities will benefit her later on in her profession...possibly as a counselor or medical professional or even a nurse maybe...

The guy didn't even realize there were kids there kinz. This guy was so far gone crying for help that he didn't even realize what was going on around him.

Harry and Joe are playing golf one morning. As they get ready to tee off on the 14th fairway which runs by a main highway, they see a funeral procession drive slowly by. Harry immediately doffs his hat and stands at attention.

"Gee Harry, that's awful respectful" sez Joe

"It's the least I can do. We were married for almost 25 years"

:drink:

Barman is drunk guys. You will have to excuse him. He will also be driving home soon, so hide the childrens.

He will probably be calling the police to see if they will escort his drunk ass home so he doesn't harm himself.

Step 1: Learn to read.
Step 2: Read his posts again.

*Don't drink alcohol these days

*My only drive is from my back office to the kitchen - about 50'

*Your kids should be alseep by now anyway, so no fear

 

[barman]

Of course it goes without saying that I am Drunk With Power as the Rx Late Night Mod, so maybe that's what WW meant in between his posting demands for homoerotic encounters

 

[barman]

Good point.

But you for one should not be making any jokes about Bigness until the body on that kid of yours grows to match her forehead.
