Death

I have never killed a man, but I have read 
a great many obituaries with pleasure.
~ Clarence Darrow

I wish that I would have been the one who had the job of making up death mythologies for cultures around the world.  I would have been pretty good at it.  Like in Australia, I would have had a grim reaper type figure, but instead of carrying a scythe he would carry a bent stick.  And it would be called a "doomerang."

Sometimes I think all the fun work has already been done.
