| Oh my wows! I remember reading this part of the quote in several places.... "When I die there will be a final waltz playing in my head, that only I can hear." Story hereI remember too, thinking how deeply beautiful that was. Well hoax it might be, but Shane did a really nice job coming up with that. | |

| That says something that really makes me sad.
Journalisim is no longer what it once was.Before the days of Rupert Murdock there were real journalists.Of course most newspapers barely have a staff now so no real investigative journalisim can be done anymore.
It's tragic in a way that research now involves Wikipedia.
I like Wikipedia,but they aren't the most reliable source since anyone can edit it. | |

| I think it's hysterical! I'm not surprised, though. I have to admit, Wikipedia has gotten me out of a lot of binds when I wrote papers in grad school.  | |
