Posted: 7/5/06 at 10:26amNo sympathy here Papa. The guy stole millions, ruined hundreds of people's lives and got to got to die in his own bed instead of prison where he was headed.

Posted: 7/5/06 at 10:41amI was raised to never speak ill of the dead. Prayers and good thoughts to his family
"All I ask of you is one thing: please don't be cynical. I hate cynicism -- it's my least favorite quality and it doesn't lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen."

A massive heart attack isn't all that incomprehensible given the pressure of knowing the suffering he caused and the stress of knowing where he was headed.

Posted: 7/5/06 at 12:07pmI suspect a silver cross, holy water and a stake might be neccessary for that.

Choose your rumors:
* He's not dead. He faked a death to avoid sentencing or forcing Bush to pardon him. He's taken the money and he's off to South America.
* Bush and Cheney had him murdered to keep him from spilling the beans.

This pisses me off beyond belief
To know that he was in a jail cell would have given me relief
But now that he's chill'n underground
My disquietation has gone from an ant pile to a mound
His death could not have happened at a mo' perfect time
So he could not have recieved a "time-out" fo' his crime
The dude is now six feet undah
I fear da grim reaper's made a terrible blundah
PEACE!

Here's an intersting editorial about it:
"...To me, that is the most interesting question: If Ken Lay had remembered how short life can be, would he really have wasted his time on earth and causing so much pain and destruction?
For any other corporate leaders who about to slide down a slippery slope of fraud and corruption, his early demise provides a chilling lesson: Life's too short to be a crook."

If you ask me, though, he still got off easy.

After the shock of hearing Ken Lay had died passed, I felt he had cheated the stockholders out of knowing he was behind bars.
He escapes a punishment for which he justly deserves.
