At their home in Glenbrook, in the Blue Mountains, Mrs McAuley said: "As far as I am concerned, Andrew did achieve his goal.

If you believe that his goal was to perish in a futile, fruitless effort, leaving behind you and your young child...then bravo.

LAHORE, Pakistan —  At least 11 people died and more than 100 people were injured at an annual spring festival in eastern Pakistan celebrated with the flying of thousands of colorful kites, officials said Monday.

The deaths and injuries were caused by stray bullets, sharpened kite-strings, electrocution and people falling off rooftops on Sunday at the conclusion of the two-day Basant festival, said Ruqia Bano, spokeswoman for the emergency services in the city of Lahore.

The festival is regularly marred by casualties caused by sharp kite strings or celebratory gunshots fired into the air. Kite flyers often use strings made of wire or coated with ground glass to try to cross and cut a rival's string or damage the other kite, often after betting on the outcome.

The ESPN headline link called him 'jinxed'. Um, the dude has survived a Snowmobile accident, being hit by a car while riding a motorcycle and a plane crash. I'd say that's about as lucky as you can get.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

Let them eat bootstraps.

Shocking! A black man is a descendant of a slave who was owned by a rich white man!  Who could have imagined!
An ad hominem fallacy consists of asserting that someone's argument is wrong and/or he is wrong to argue at all purely because of something discreditable/not-authoritative about the person or those persons cited by him rather than addressing the soundness of the argument itself.
