And this week on G-d's Celebrity Poker Showdown...

[GaryWyze]

<P>[color=purple]....from "Seinfeld" fame, Barney Martin. Straight from Vatican City, Pope John Paul. Dead-pan comedian Mitch Hedberg. Famed attorney Johnny Cochran. And the belle of this ball, Mrs. Terri Schiavo.</P>
<P>Wait a minute, I've just been handed a note. Seems Mr. Cochran will be unable to join us this evening due to his relocation down south. In his place I give you a tough man, who&nbsp;just happened to make&nbsp;one hechuva tender chicken, ladies &amp; gentlemen Mr. Frank Perdue.</P>
<P>Personally, my money's on Terri Schiavo. Good luck getting a read on that girl.</P>

[ChickenHawk]

Go Mitch.

Johnny Cochran isn't a celebrity either, just a very good lawyer.

Bullshit. If she wasn't going to die the way she did, she would have never been famous. She would have been just another anonymous vegetable.

Mitch Hedberg didn't kill himself. He had a drug addiction and he had a heart attack from doing too much heroin. Mitch was an awesome guy who loved life and was known for his generosity and general kindness toward his fans. He had a drug problem and lost control of himself. I'd certainly like to think he wouldn't end up in "hell" for this.

I'm getting a bit defensive and maybe taking this past what you anticipated... But I was a huge fan of Mitch's so naturally I'm gonna state my opinion.

<p>in reality you can be killing yourself by driving being there are so many vehicular deaths</p><p>but can we judge things by percentages?&nbsp; not everyone who drinks&nbsp;dies&nbsp;and not everyone who does heroin dies</p><p>just as not everyone who drives dies...</p><p>guess you have to look at it as 'do you excessively drink' or 'do you excessively drive fast'</p><p>just some fodder</p>

[furie]

there's a world of diffrence between a car accident and partaking in an
extremely unhealthy or hazardous activity; that being choice. people
don't choose to be in car accidents. he chose to take heroin, he knew
it was dangerous, it was slowly killing him, it got out of hand and he
died. his death was a direct result of his own actions. dying from your
own stupid actions is killing yourself.&nbsp; <br />

<p><font size="1">there's a world of diffrence between a car accident and partaking in an extremely unhealthy or hazardous activity;</font></p><p>okay!</p><p>let's say that you were driving on the highway and you were doing 75 in a 65 zone. In reality you are breaking the law and endangering your life. and let's say you didn't leave enough space between you and the car in front of you, according to the driving safety rules(and you know most people don't allow the proper car lengths) And you are unable to stop in time and in turn die in a traffic accident. Should you be considered a bad person and be considered to have committed suicide?</p><p>i'm not arguing, just trying to look at it at different perspectives</p>

[furie]

<p>when did i say suicide? infact i've been very careful not to use that
word. suicide implyes he wanted to die. I never implyed this, i simply
said that he was doing something very dangerous over a long period of
time (which is why your car analogy still doesn't work), knowing that
it was likely to kill him, more and more likely what with a weak heart,
and died. he died of his own actions. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It's like playing russian roulette. you hate to see someone with his talent die, but when that bullet goes off, who's at fault?<br />

<br />It's true they die in
threes. Because Celebs are dying all the time. And when 2 die close
together, we wait for the next one, and then we stop counting. <br />

Can placebos cause side effects? And if so, are the side effects real?
