Odd!
My mums father died at the age of 77
(lung cancer
)
My fathers father died at the age of 85
(Last week at the time of writing the message
)
my uncle I think it was, died of suicide
(he was found washed up on a beech, quite distressing!
), unsure of age, but around the 30 mark.
and I am due to die in August 2058 of cancer, if I don't die due to suicide before then! My age will be average.

Errmmm, I don't drink! LOL
56% cancer
24% car accident
13% loneliness
5% drowning of the lungs
2% wounds
Loneliness, that'll probably kill me! LOL
And 28% of my life is already gone! Actually, I have already by other statstics lived 25% of my life, but in my mind, I have more like passed only 50% of my life, if more. In true negative style, I expect to go sooner than later. Life's volitile, isn't it! :-

As for the afterlife:
Quote
Sixth Level of Hell - The City of Dis
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You approach Satan's wretched city where you behold a wide plain surrounded by iron walls. Before you are fields full of distress and torment terrible. Burning tombs are littered about the landscape. Inside these flaming sepulchers suffer the heretics, failing to believe in God and the afterlife, who make themselves audible by doleful sighs. You will join the wicked that lie here, and will be offered no respite. The three infernal Furies stained with blood, with limbs of women and hair of serpents, dwell in this circle of Hell.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Purgatory Repenting Believers Very Low
Level 1 - Limbo Virtuous Non-Believers Moderate
Level 2 - Lustful Moderate
Level 3 - Gluttonous Moderate
Level 4 - Prodigal and Avaricious Low
Level 5 - Wrathful and Gloomy Moderate
Level 6 - The City of Dis Heretics Very High
Level 7 - Violent High
Level 8 - the Malebolge Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers Moderate
Level 9 - Cocytus Treacherous Low
Oh, and wave were playing an excellent track for this, "Chris Rea - The road to hell!"
I gotta have that playing for my funeral! ;-

Somehow, it just doesn't.... look right! Unless it refers to me bent on misery for the ultimate authority responsible for looking after the masses that lack common sense, aka the Health & Saftey Executive!

Interesting that in the 1950's - 1960's most Sci-Fi novel writers though that by the year 2000, we'd have flying cars, teleporters, and robots doing all of our housework... (and homework?)
