Killed himself on the day the Patriots are visiting the Whitehouse. Nice touch.

It’s often been said that etiquette is simply the art of making others feel comfortable.

When you’re concentrated on that, it’s hard to be consumed with your own hurt feelings.

Am I supposed to care?

This, after all the endless news coverage about his trials. Maybe now they’ll stop talking about him.

For those who are interested, I know from my older sisters that deportment included the proper way to set a table, greet guests, hold a conversation, visit the sick, eat at formal dinners, write thank you notes...and I’m sure that was just a bit of it. I’d happily give up the other social teachings at school if they just taught how to be polite.

...

Great insight and idea. Too bad teaching it would be called racist.

I just read a book by Scott Adams. He has a little chapter on how to strike up a conversation. He considers it one of the important skills to be successful in life.

We should offer murderers rope in prison. And instructions too.

“He fought his way to the top to plunge to the bottom. Fast money, fast life.”

No. I think he was just an evil S.O.B.

How do you make a noose out of a sheet? You start with a tight end.

Good point - good manners would be considered racist by the liberals in this country.

Interesting post. I’d assume that a lot of low income father-less families could be helped by this. Of course, it could be attacked as ‘acting white’.

Post of the Day was from the reader comments on a New Jersey media website covering this story:

"I'm a fan of the New York Jets and I haven't killed myself ... yet."

LOL.
