[Joe Bob]

Everyone has thought of it at one time or another. A neighbor did it last year, she shot herself in the heart. Until the local cops found the note they hooked up the hubbie.

This afternoon my Uncle did himself in. He was a troubled soul. Drop dead good looking guy, but just a bit "off". He was in a band, took a lot of then legal drugs, was the drummer in the back up band for Elvis in "Double Trouble". Tried to do it with a vintage 67 VW into a bridge abuttment, lost an eye, screwed up his face.

He accepted my offer of friendship this AM on Facebook.

Somehow he got ahold of a shotgun and did the deed sometime this afternoon. His daughters found him. He was 65. We took all his weapons away, we took away his DL. We called him every day, he was scheduled for plastic surgery today. We thought we did what was needed.....

Oh well, as I said, we all think of it. Even I have. Seeing the fallout from the reactions of his children, my Momz, his brother, I won't again.

RIP, Don Vader.
