Mikey, I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother - Mine's been on hospice since mid October and I know I'll be going through real soon, what you're going through right now. My sympathies to you, I'm sure she lived a wonderful life.
iguana, that is very sad news about your friend. It pains me to hear when someone has taken their fate into their own hands. It isn't fair when someone so young leaves this earth. It's good to know he had good friends. Take care.

iguanapunk, i think you did the right thing by celebrating his life, sorry to hear of such a sad situation though :(
personally i believe the soul is recycled, so in someways the people we loose are still with us in a way.
if any of you are into reading i highly recommend the philp pullman trilogies 'his dark materials' - consists of 'the northern lights', 'the subtle knife' and 'the amber spyglass' - there kind of kids books, but there really cool, and very sweet as well - best books ive ever read - can give you a whole new perspective on a lot of things.

I ordered them from Amazon, for a mate. I'm not a fan of reading, I did try to get into it but I haven't found the right book. The last book I bought was called the Cybriad, and it bored me to tears.

their def worth perservering with if you can find the time, honestly, or you can just wait for the film to come out!! :)
They are turning the my dark materials books into films... i cant remember who's doing it though. I would'nt mind reading them.
yeah, i think the film was inevitable!! i think they could make really good films out of them, i just hope they don't arse it up - i want LOTR's-esque detail and epicness, and the film must portray the many levels the book has, or i want my money back!!! :)

Speaking of books-to-film...
Anyone here a fan of Neil Gaiman (I personally think he's a modern day literary genius). I know his book Neverwhere was turned into a show for the BBC. But I don't know many people who've read the book AND seen the film - just wondered if anyone here has, and what do they think of the BBC show Neverwhere and is it a good interpretation of the book?
Nerdcore, I have a hunch you'd dig Neil Gaiman. When you've got the time to really dig in, read a couple of his books if you haven't already especially Neverwhere and/or American Gods. Being an English-teacher-in-training, I think you'd appreciate Gaiman's storytelling ability.
