    Oh man, Alan! That is so sad. Sorry it put a damper on your weekend, but you did what you needed to do.

    A young 29-yr-old police officer committed suicide in my hometown marina parking lot. Some poor soul found him in his car. Surely affected his holiday as well. I wasn't even there and it's weighed on me.

    okay-----makes me speculate whether that campsite & the trailer are stigmatized, due to that tragic incident. But yeah---15 bottles o' vodka is a lot. Yup. You bet. Prolly, the guys' obituary(if one is published) will euphemistically state that he "Passed away unexpectedly", and leave it at that. But yeah--it demonstrates that you kids needta STAY HOME and take care o' yourself, during these so-called "holodayz", which otherwise are nothing more than consumption, consumption, consumption. See? Hope that helps you some. Thankk Mee.

    Was this in Chicago? Because I just read an article that close to 30 Chicago police officers have suicided themselves, since 2018.

    I'm sorry you had that in your day, Alan. It seems like a sad way to go.

    That is so sad, Alan. And you are right - makes me cherish my family all the more!
