Die at the Right Time

Many police officers and firefighters die at the 9/11 event. Several of them get their home streets renamed after them. No doubt they are heroes, but what about those who did not die on spot? Many of those who survive suffer from illnesses that they would not have if not the terrorist attack. They do not have the financial and spiritual support they deserve from the city and people they saved and protected. Is it fair?



If you lose a leg at the Iraq war, you get a metal from the president at a crowded ceremony in DC. If you don't, you get a thank-you for doing a good job fighting for the country and YOURSELF. So, losing is winning, winning is actually losing?!



In advertising, timing is very important -- an idea could be brilliant at a time and the dumbest at the others. I guess it is also important for your death. We may choose the campaign timing, but do we have any control on the time we die?
