Let's see...the last time we holidayed abroad was to get married in Las Vegas in April 2008. We had been before to celebrate the New Year of 2006 and we got engaged then too, so it was a natural thing for us to go back there....

mattman27 thanks. luckily my office-mate knows a lot of the same classic songs, so we occasionally bust out a duet, but in a funny(awkward) a capella/spoken word/poetry slam/karaoke mixture. good times.

mattman27 spend some time with people who can't get out of bed or wash themselves and see how unimportant those things are to them and how important the other parts of their lives are. being conscious is another story though... i don't know what to think about...

mattman27 you seem to have a pretty strong belief about what happens after you die, but not sure i quiet understand your belief. here is a question, is there a way you don't want to die? i have never smoked cause i don't want to die of lung cancer. i can control that...

mattman27 hilarious. ok since you asked, my opinion is you have to try and live as long as you can. whether it be for god, family, or self, even if you believe in the afterlife, or multiple lives, this one is unique and it is the only time you will have these friends,...

mattman27 thanks for the welcome! i have heard this response before, and my first thought is that it is a lose-lose situation, but how do you feel knowing your loved ones will suffer the pain you say you want to avoid?

mattman27 i think this is a question of personality. you see some elderly people pass away shortly after their spouse, the whole 'where the red fern grows' broken heart idea. others seem to be able to keep on truckin' and enjoy independence, solitude, and peace long...
