Michael is ...

 ... writing an ethics paper on suicide. Helping or hurting, what do you think? On the one hand, I'm shoving the subject in my own face, on the other hand at least I'm not ignoring it.

It's been a bad semester ... nope, just no good at all. Definitely not my favorite. So, I thought I should end on an appropriate note. Whether or not that was a healthy decision, I have no idea.

My thoughts: suicide should be thought about. It happens ... we need to figure out how to make it not happen. It is a bad thing. Blunt statement, blunt statement, unwavering absolute, blagh, blagh, blagh ... maybe I'm biased... but then, G.K. Chesterton is blunt about suicide and I think he's also very right. So, excuse me for being blunt as well. Because I agree with my pal Gilbert.

My first question: should someone who's recently had to deal with suicide write a paper about it?

My second question: should someone who needs to finish a paper by midnight be procrastinating on Xanga?

My answers: maybe and no.

1st Question: Absolutely, good choice. Hard choice, but a good one.
2nd Question: hoe could I have answered the 1st question if you weren't?

Ookay, this was weeks ago. My question, as important a topic as this is, how is it part of ethics?
I can't say I would jump into writing about something I've just had to experience, but maybe, as horrible and difficult as it is, it's a good way to process.
Now that it's passed, how did it go off?
Good grief, this post was 2 1/2 weeks ago, where has the time gone, blah.
Is it ironic that now that you're not planning to travel across the country, I am? (In a way)

suicide is a part of ethics because people will argue whether or not it's ethical. right to die vs. duty to live type thing.
now what do you mean you're planning to travel across the country?
