They used to have a rule up here (Upstate New York) that they couldn't shut the heat off during the winter. They should get back to that, because there's no telling why this man didn't pay his bill. He's 93, he might have been half-senile as it was. OR totally senile. Or maybe he just fucking forgot. Doesn't matter what the reason is. The companies could survive for a few months without shutting off the delinquents.

Why should the power company have an obligation to provide the old man with charity?

Well just following orders.

Yes, the raison d'etre of ignorant apathetic drones.

relatively speaking it is actually a pleasant way to go. perhaps being 93 he knew his number was up.

i believe so because the body just slows down.

it isnt painful though.

it is like going to sleep.

How many times have you experienced it?

How many times have you experienced it?

death cannot be experienced. True death is the end of it all. There is no climax, no emotions, nothing to talk about.

What are you smoking?

As soon as I saw the title, I thought Cosmic better pay his bills.
But he lives in the hurricane area.. So It can't get too cold right ?

No cold here!:thumbsup:

Hurricanes though do pose a very great threat and if there's a cat 3 or above hurricane heading this way, I leave for the higher ground upstate somewhere.:itold:
