This question was from my friend Hawke, on 11/21/00

    How come people think it's funny when someone dies?

    Well, I don't know what kind of people you know but generally people don't find humor in death. On the contray I find people in the U.S. are too afraid of death. I think we should take the stance on death like the Spanish do. They celebrate death. They celebrate the life that was. Of course the Spanish are sad but they move on because that's what our loved ones would want us to do. Every year they have a 3 day festival called the day of the dead. During this time they remember and celebrate the dead. Loss is sad but remember what you gained from knowing that person. And no I'm not talking about the will.
