Ok, regarding David Carradine... I'm sorry, but a man found in a wardrobe with a rope around his neck and genitals is not intending to commit suicide, no matter what the police say.

Most news sources are changing the "neck and genitals" to "neck and body" now.
Jesus Fucking Christ man, you were a kung-fu master. Vince Shlomi is slap-chopping hookers and you couldn't get yourself a lay?

the Obama speech will be shown at 9 am on msnbc.
Amazing how last year every debate was live commented. Sloggers not as interested in substance, without the spice of the Obama-Clinton horse race? Too slammed on broken promises?
Still, it's historic. Seeing as how our whole foreign policy is caught up in middle east 'n' terorrism 'n' stuff.
check it out.

WOW! A security guard was killed doing his job! I thought all security guards were lazy, dumb, paranoid Fascist cowards out to trample on the rights of douchebags wanting to photograph ATMs in REI? Who would have thought that they have dangerous, meaningful jobs?

I will miss Mr. Carradine. No exaggeration, I loved him in every movie or show that had him. Mostly cheesy and incredibly stupid flicks, but he would do that weird chuckle of his or speak. really. slow. ly. and I would completely believe he was an ultimate monk of wisdom, head assasin etc.

FYI: in addition to the late breaking news that it was ketchup you may want to know in Obama's speech the word terrorism was not used. He said, "The United States does not accept the legitimacy of continued Israeli settlements. This construction violates previous agreements and undermines efforts to achieve peace. It is time for these settlements to stop. ...The only resolution is for the aspirations of both sides to be met through two states, where Israelis and Palestinians each live in peace and security.”

He's quoting the Koran to great applause: "The holy Koran teaches whoever kills an innocent person it is as if he has killed all mankind."
Maybe we should get those lists of everyone who signed and go quote the Holy Bible to them: "Love your brother as yourself," "love thy neighbor," etc.
You know, use what's good about your opponent's belief system, and persuade them to act on that, to come over to your point of view?
The way Obama communicates is masterful. Worth noting. Maybe even emulating?
OK, back to what's in my cap, monkeys havinv sex, ketchup on a shirt & the wonder and mystery etc. of an "alabaster and quartz hyperventilation bag."

So, c'mon Slog readers. Not having tried it, is auto-asphixiation all it's cracked up to be??????????

@14: There is a negative self-reporting bias, since we can't get good testimonials from the people who really got into it.

That one about David Carradine is the saddest. And I have two questions on this issue : 1. When was the information released that David died from auto erotic asphyxiation? 2.And is it really worth it?
From his latest interview:
"I was a fake."
"I knew nothing about kung fu," he wrote. "At the time I did not understand it at all, and I was faking it all the time even though I knew the moves. I am an actor. We just thought we had a good story."
