I recall one time feeling particularly low (this was since you folks have 'known' me) while I was driving across high bridge, how if I had to die then, that getting taken out by a basketball sized meteor/soon to be meteorite with a nearly horizontal trajectory knocking through my driver's window, knocking me, and my car, off the right side of the bridge.
I thought: "At least it would be an unusual way to go out "with a bang and not a whimper" - but then my kitty hopped up and licked my ear, and I realized the evil/sadness involved. . For whatever the F that's worth...
