Good. That word is useless. People use
it every day. How’s it going? Good. How’s life? Good. How are you feeling?
Good. When in reality it’s not good at all. At first I was mad at people who
said good as an answer, but then I thought about it and it not their fault; it’s
the question askers fault. Don't ask if you don't care. You give people a false
sense of hope. For just a second they think you really care, that you really
want to know what’s going on in there lives or that you really want to know how
they are feeling. They hear the question, but see the look of disinterest on
your face and settle for Good as an answer. What’s funny is usually the person
asking the question is as messed up as the person they are asking. So when the
asked person says "Good" they then ask the obvious follow up question “how
about you?" Now because the first person just said good, the
second person does not want to unload their issues on this person because
they don’t think that they care. So again the answer is Good. People just want
some one to listen.
So how are you doing today?

| Not even Law and Order would attempt to capture this
mess.
This is an unbelievable twist of fate!!!!
At the 1994 annual awards dinner given for Forensic
Science, AAFS President Dr. Don Harper Mills
astounded his audience with the legal complications of
a bizarre death.
Here is the story:
On March 23, 1994.... the medical examiner viewed
the body of Ronald Opus, and concluded that he died
from a shotgun wound to the head.
Mr.Opus had jumped from the top of a ten-story
building intending to commit suicide..
He left a note to the effect indicating his
despondency.
As he fell past the ninth floor, his life was
interrupted by a shotgun blast passing through a
window, which killed him instantly.
Neither the shooter nor the deceased was aware that a
safety net had been installed just below the eighth
floor level to protect some building workers and that
Ronald Opus would not have been able to complete his
suicide the way he had planned.
"Ordinarily," Dr Mills continued, "Someone who sets
out to commit suicide and ultimately succeeds, even
though the mechanism might not be what he intended,
is still defined as committing suicide."
That Mr. Opus was shot on the way to certain death,
but probably would not have been successful because
of the safety net, caused the medical examiner to
feel that he had a homicide on his hands.
The room on the ninth floor, where the shotgun blast
emanated, was occupied by an elderly man and his
wife. They were arguing vigorously, and he was
threatening her with a shotgun!
The man was so upset that when he pulled thetrigger,
he completely missed his wife, and the pellets went
through the window, striking Mr. Opus.
When one intends to kill subject "A" but kills
subject "B" in the attempt, one is guilty of the
murder of subject "B."
When confronted with the murder charge, the old man
and his wife were both adamant, and both said that
they thought the shotgun was not loaded. The old man
said it was a long-standing habit to threaten his
wife with the unloaded shotgun. He had no intention to
murder her.
Therefore the killing of Mr. Opus appeared to be an
accident; that is, assuming the gun had been
accidentally loaded.
The continuing investigation turned up a witness who
saw the old couple's son loading the shotgun about six
weeks prior to the fatal accident...
It transpired that the old lady had cut off her
son's financial support and the son, knowing the
propensity of his father to use the shotgun
threateningly, loaded the gun with the expectation
that his father would shoot his mother.
Since the loader of the gun was aware of this, he was
guilty of the murder even though he didn't actually
pull the trigger.
The case now becomes one of murder on the part of the
son for the death of Ronald Opus.
Now comes the exquisite twist...
Further investigation revealed that the son was, in
fact, Ronald Opus. He had become increasingly
despondent over the failure of his attempt to
engineer his mother's murder.
This led him to jump off the ten-story building on
March 23rd, only to be killed by a shotgun blast
passing through the ninth story window. The son,
Ronald Opus, had actually murdered himself.
So the medical examiner closed the case as a
suicide.
