Houston Chronicle

DALLAS - Dale Paschal Jones, a former Baylor University regent and president of Halliburton Corp. who was known as much for his devotion to Christian ministry as his business skills, has died of complications from a head injury. He was 68.

Jones, who led the multi-billion-dollar oil-services corporation before Vice President Dick Cheney took over in 1995, died Nov. 6 at a Houston hospital.

He had struck his head while hurrying under a closing garage door after triggering an inside control, his family said.

Though his injury appeared to be minor, it caused internal bleeding that put pressure on his brain.

3. Finally some good news!!! yea!!!!!

14. I know it's tempting....

But it's never seemed right to me to be gleeful over the death of anyone. (Quietly relieved, maybe, but not gleeful.)

[Occulus]

30. Stalin? Hitler? Khan?

Bin Laden, perhaps?

I shed no tears. None at all.

4. The Will Of Garage Door Gods Be Done!

At least he died before he could be charged with violating several federal statutes barring dealing with our enemies.

6. Perhaps the Garage Door control was Made in Iraq?

[Cooley Hurd]

7. Wasn't there a similar story involving a cat?

The cat was crushed by a garage door? What's the fatality rate for garage door accidents, anyway? :wow::crazy:

5. From those who live like leeches on the people's lives,

Sure, call me any ugly name you choose--
The steel of freedom does not stain.
From those who live like leeches on the people's lives,
We must take back our land again,
America!

O, yes,
I say it plain,
America never was America to me,
And yet I swear this oath--
America will be!

Out of the rack and ruin of our gangster death,
The rape and rot of graft, and stealth, and lies,
We, the people, must redeem
The land, the mines, the plants, the rivers.
The mountains and the endless plain--
All, all the stretch of these great green states--
And make America again!

... Langston Hughes

Totmacher

sie ahnten nichts von mir
von meiner wilden gier
doch als du kamst zu mir
da wurde ich ein tier
kein gedanke an danach
als ich dir die knochen brach

tot tot tot ich mache dich tot
tot tot tot von blut alles rot

tot

fuer mein naechstes leben
schoepfe ich neue kraft
ich bin dem toeten ergeben
in der einzelhaft

tot tot tot ich mache dich tot
tot tot tot von blut alles rot
tot tot tot ich mache dich tot
tot tot tot von blut alles rot

ein dahinsichen
von gottes hand
ich kann dich riechen
und das denken verschwand

tot tot tot tot tot tot tot ich mache dich tot
tot tot tot von blut alles rot tot tot tot tot

ich mache dich tot ich mache dich tot
ich mache dich tot ich mache dich tot

sag mir was du willst
dass du meine sehnsucht stillst
ich mache dich tot fuer immerdar
von blut alles rot auf gottes altar

tot tot tot ich mache dich tot
tot tot tot von blut alles rot

ich mache dich tot fuer immerdar
ich mache dich tot glaub mir es ist wahr
ich mache dich tot fuer immerdar
ich mache dich tot auf gottes altar

Wumpscut - Deadmaker

They didn't expect me
never expected my wild lust
I turned into an animal
No thought about afterwards
When I broke your bones

Dead, dead, dead I make you dead
Dead, dead, dead stained from blood so red

Dead

For my next life (life after death in the religious sense)
I get the power I need
I’m a slave to the killing
In solitary confinement

("einzelhaft" (solitary confinment) has become part of the german vocabulary after the terrorist attacks of the Red Army Fraction during the 70's. It's used for people in prison, who are put into complete isolation not just from other people, but from all kinds of information. It's what might be known in the US as "sensual deprivation", a kind of torture-technique to destroy people's self.)

Dead, dead, dead I make you dead
Dead, dead, dead stained from blood so red
Dead, dead, dead I make you dead
Dead, dead, dead stained from blood so red

Wasting away
By God’s hand
I can smell you
And my thought disappeared

Dead, dead, dead I make you dead
Dead, dead, dead stained from blood so red
Dead, dead, dead, dead

I make you dead I make you dead
I make you dead I make you dead

Tell me what you want
That you fill my longing (that you satisfy my desire)
I make you dead for evermore
God’s altar stained from blood so red

Dead, dead, dead I make you dead
Dead, dead, dead stained from blood so red

I make you dead for evermore
I make you dead believe me its true
I make you dead for evermore
I make you dead on God’s altar

15. Looks like Cheney may not be far behind

May they meet in hell

[liberal N proud]

8. Oh how will Dick Cheney live on?

[Octafish]

9. An 'accident,' huh?

Of course, it's likely Mr. Jones' injuries were the result of an accident.

Then there's the other logical possibility, they weren't.

CIA ASSASSINATION MANUAL

Assassination is an extreme measure not normally used in clandestine operations. It should be assumed that it will never be ordered or authorized by any U.S. Headquarters, though the latter may in rare instances agree to its execution by members of an associated foreign service. This reticence is partly due to the necessity of committing communications to paper. No assassination instructions should ever be written or recorded. Consequently, the decision to employ this technique must nearly always be reached in the field, at the area where the act will take place. Decision and instructions should be confined to an absolute minimum of persons. Ideally, only one person will be involved. No report may be made, but usually the act will be properly covered by normal news services, whose output is available to all concerned.

SNIP...

A further type division is caused by the need to conceal the fact that the subject was actually the victim of assassination, rather than an accident or natural causes. If such concealment is desirable the operation will be called “secret”; if concealment is immaterial, the act will be called open”; while if the assassination requires publicity to be effective it will be termed “terroristic.”

SNIP...

For secret assassination, either simple or chase, the contrived accident is the most effective technique. When successfully executed, it causes little excitement and is only casually investigated.

18. I wonder if he'd been deposed yet?

He would probably have had to give some testimony in the Nigerian (I think) bribery case.

21. It's an odd way to go

And frankly, suspicious.

[SoSleeplessinSoCal]

22. Stupid move

That is an odd way to go. A 68 year old man tries to outrun his garage door? Stupid move I'd say.

I only wish good people who hate bad deeds will not take joy in this man's strange death. It's unwise, unkind and reflects badly on a good cause.

Please refrain from hatred (except for Bush of course).

23. Makes you wonder if he was planning any revelations. n/t

24. Must have been one of those

25. Oh, dear! OK, I'll stay home from work Monday in observance.

Let's make it a national day of mourning, but go light on the mourning.

[MrModerate]

26. As risky as it might be, I'll quote Bob Dylan:

"I will follow your casket,
In the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I'll stand o'er your grave
'Til I'm sure that you're dead."

Amen, Bobby.

Another fuckhead bites the motherfucking dust.
