Jacobsson Karl Edvard Has Died

It would probably be safe to assume that 99% of people, including myself, have... had... no idea who this guy is... was. For most people who wouldn't know otherwise, he's just a guy who got old and died after a slip and fall in the bathroom.

But this was a guy who at 77 years of age was a go-kart racing champion, a part-time fitness instrutor, and was enjoying the fun and sun here in Pattaya. Who cares that he died? He lived: That's what matters. He really lived.

And that ends the lesson. Congratulations to you, Mr. Jacobsson Karl Edvard, on having had one hell of a good life. Sorry it had to end when you were still young.
