Remember the Russian model that “threw herself” out of the window of her apartment in NY a year or two ago? That was suspicious as well.

That makes the appearance more acceptable., but the file size stays the same and so does the loading time.

I had nearly forgotten about that. You’re right...

Admittedly it is quite a bit easier to throw someone out a window than it is to hang them and make it look like an accident.

(It’s the “and make it look like an accident” part that would be the trick.)

Gotta wonder... my gut says it’s a homicide. Actually, in both cases.

Unresolved. I mean, they keep pretending to be someone else and weave artificial personalities.

Grace Kelly did that. Each time she liked a certain personality trait from one of her roles she weaved it into her own personality.

We see stars portray diplomats and politicians and then they start wanting to dabble in that field.

They don’t want to face themselves as they are and keep running. It’s when the demons catch up (they always do) and then it hits them. I don’t know what she was living with, but I hope God takes her in His arms and tells her it’ll all be okay.

Many years ago I slightly knew a woman who killed herself by shooting herself through the abdomen with a shotgun. Her funeral was absolutely the saddest thing I have experienced. Watching her brother throw himself on her casket asking her to come back was particularly unpleasant.

No question about the “window/suicide” theory.

The Russian woman for sure; this current young lady, jury’s out, but if I had to bet, I’m with you; it’s murder.

Unless these models are so frayed they just snap and lose it. Any way you look at it, it’s really sad. And like someone else posted, Helen Thomas lives...

How do you find the html code when you copy properties from a published pic?

Not to be macabre, but was it an open or closed casket wake? Also, was the funeral in a church? I ask because when I was very young, there was a family friend who shot himself (over a girlfriend) and the pastor refused to sanction the funeral; another priest had to perform the services, which made for an unholy living hell of an event. This was 25 or more years ago, IIRC.

These days it becomes hard to pick and choose what roles to take. Everything out there is hard core and the majority of the time an actor would not work if he was too choosy. But still one has to keep the love of the truth out front and most important!

It is EXCEEDINGLY rare for beautiful young women to kill themselves.

Not really. Go peruse www.mydeathspace.com. Lots of hot chicks kill themselves. They can be as confused as the rest of us.

You can limit the size of the graphic by adding "width=xxx" to the HTML code, where xxx is the number of pixels you want.

That resizes the presentation only, not the size of the graphic you have to download.

You want to present a smaller graphic and be nice to your fellow FReepers, get a Photobucket.com account, resize the original on your machine, upload it to Photobucket and link to that.

Granter there are fewer of us today on dialup than before, but I used to completely dump threads overloaded with stupidly-sized graphics -- your content went unread.

Forget the above if there are copyright issues.

The rest of “us” aren’t confused. Neither are young attractive, wealthy females, at least when it means offing themselves.

Men are 4 times more likely to kill themselves as women, and attractive rich women are less likely to do so than the female population at large.
