Note that the coroner states in the autopsy header that the deceased's age is 51, while in the body of the report it says 41.
Doesn't anyone proof read these things? |

| No, never had to. Mom and dad bought it for me after a season of unusually frequent accidental baths with the sail boat. Typically, once I had the wet-suit my sailing had improved so much I never got it wet. |

| An old pro's trick for cold-water work; as soon as you get in the water, fill the wetsuit up with warm piss before the water can get into it. It'll increase your stay time considerably.

| A friend of Falwell? A Dean at Liberty U? Then good riddance! I've just lost any human sympathy for the man. The more of the bastards hang themselves, the better.
His fellow fascist fundies are, in addition to total denying blindness, even screaming murder.More details are coming out and he was indeed murdered at his home in Alabama while his wife & child were in North Carolina visiting a sick relative. It appears this is going to get more hurtful for the family by minute. | [My emphasis.]
And his church said: At this point, there is very little information. Please refrain from speculation until the authorities handling the case reveal the facts. We appreciate your help and sensitivity while our church family and friends grieve. Our church would like to express our great appreciation to the authorities for their sensitivity to our loss and diligent work.
Our thoughts and prayers cover Pastor Aldridge's wife and family during this difficult time. We respectfully ask the media and public to respect the privacy of the family and the church at this time. We also ask the media and public to understand that our church has no further statements or information. Any and all facts of the situation will be released by the proper authorities. | Hilarious! "We ain't sayin' nothin'. Don't y'all go talkin', neither!"
I'm so glad I'm such a convinced atheist, because if I thought there were a Yahweh, I know I'd go to Hell for enjoying this so damned much.

I somehow missed, before, that a member of his church found him after Aldridge failed to show up for morning services. So my hypothesis about his top being off running errands was clearly wrong. But I'd still wager that even though there was no "foul play," there was someone else involved in this accident. |

| Agree. I've been wondering how he could have hogtied himself by himself. I really don't see any way that it could be done, if he were bound as described.
I wonder if his gentleman friend will eventually come forward and I wonder if he isn't a Jeff Gannon-style pro. I further wonder if he wasn't present when Rev. Aldridge expired and beat feet when he realized that the fun & games had gone awry.
This is a sick, sad little incident that wouldn't have rated more than perhaps a two column-inch paragraph on Page 12 if it hadn't involved a fairly well-known, locally at least, minister.
