A Man's Home Is His Mausoleum
-
In Florida, the foreclosure crisis is coming with a body count, as in one woman who was found dead in a car in the garage of her home by the buyer in foreclosure, and another man who shot and killed himself when they came to take his home. (The story was posted before he died of his injuries) The former case might be that the woman's failure to pay her mortgage was because she'd been dead for months and nobody knew -- a family member they tracked down hadn't seen her in 13 years -- but the latter is a different story, a guy who was a handful even in good times, estranged from his family, threatening to kill himself if they took his home because then "he couldn't keep his guns and smoke his pot." Say what you want, but he did have priorities. (Florida Today; St. Petersburg Times)
