Like…this is my dad?

I’m not going to lie…I’m getting a little obsessed with poor Matilda Ledger who like poor little Frances Bean before her, may grow up in a world where her daddy was a dipshit who killed himself.

Did you know that waltzing matilda is this huge song in Australia? An old folks song though… like our “a frog went a courtin” or “she’ll be coming round the mountain.” I bet he used to sing it to her all the time.

Mary and I went to the Australian Open and during this heated women’s match between an Israeli chick and an Australian, the Australian side broke into it…that coupled with the Aussie Aussie Aussie chant were hurled at the Israeli fans who were chanting something or another too.

Yeah, but anyway, if Heath Od’d he’s a dipshit. And I hope that being half dipshit doesn’t screw up her life.

    Is it wrong that when I read this post and try to remember to feel sad for Heath Ledger, I find myself saying “You know, the phrase ‘half dipshit’ is really funny?”

    Ah, I remember when my dear mother used to sing “Coming ’round the Mountain” when I was a wee lad. I can hear her voice now….

    She was coming round the mountain doing ninety,
    When the chain on her motorcycle broke.
    They found her in the graaaaaassss,
    With two mufflers up her aaaasssss,
    And her tits were playing wipeout on the spokes!

    Committing suicide is a horrible legacy to leave your child in that they will be more likely to commit suicide, too. This is beyond the risk that mental illness is hereditary. If you know someone who is suicidal and has children, it is something to emphasis to them. No, your children will not be better off without you. Yes, your suicide will increase the chances your child will commit suicide, too.
