    I know things are tough but we should still maintain standards.

    RIP. Makes me feel bad for spending all my time posting on here and doing crap all. I wish I was a bit more like him.

    To be honest I wasn't a fan of the guy, the media used him as a story as did many celebs. Fair play to him for trying to do something positive but prefer not have had to read it every day. I would prefer to do it in private with my close relatives friends.

    You don't have to be dying to feel inadequate when people who have no more in the way of skills/money than you get off their backsides and make a difference. I assuage my rich middle-class guilt with donations to whichever charidee happens to catch my attention when I'm drunk and vulnerable!

    RIP that guy.

    It's not how many days that you live but what you do with those days.

    God rest his soul and bless him in the next life.

    I am more into learning maths and physics stuff and playing with my music machines really, it's getting going and being productive that's the challenge. Gotta make the best of my time.

    In all seriousness though, I wasn't looking for sympathy (though it is appreciated) and I don't feel a particular need to do something for charidee (I am pretty short with chuggers and door to door nuisance callers). It's more a feeling that precious days are flying by without me really doing very much. I am implementing the seinfeld method or JFDI methodology on various things though so this is becoming less of a problem.

    I've had enough of them through my letterbox I probably could. I won't though, cos I disagree profoundly with them.

    Doodab, I don't agree with your assessment - you don't owe society anything. If that young guy wanted to campaign then that's great - you should not have to feel you need to do the same.
