Stack also set his house on fire before crashing his plane.

    Just been reading about this, got to give him kudos for his 'suicide note' though.
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    As a precaution, the NAADC scrambled two F-16 fighter jets from Houston, Texas, to patrol the area.
    I can only imagine how he'd have felt about that waste of tax payers money....

    Re: Man crashes plane into US IRS building

    It's sad that someone's life gets to the point where they feel this is the only way out. Even more so when basically you've got someone who comes across as "intelligent" falling for some deep rooted cynism.

    What does make me laugh though is that at least one of the **** ups was his own doing... Not filing a tax return was entirely his fault and yet he choses to blame an outside force....

    This is bunny and friends. He is fed up waiting for everyone to help him out, and decided to help himself instead!

    Re: Man crashes plane into US IRS building

    educated, yet disturbed, and thats after one paragraph of the note


    I feel that you can't do much in this world unless you live to see the results, sorry Jesus, but its true, Stand up for your beliefs, if you kill yourself you are just another nutjob, rest in rehab.

    If you want a stage, learn to perform, if you want an audience, perform better, if you want fame, copy a real artists song and end up on Britains got Talent


    end of story, noone cares


    boohooo

    ps if Cheryl Cole, or anyone from Xfactor is reading this, a loaded plane is the way to go, regardless of casualties, its worth it!
    We're only here for the Banter - The Luvvies - Chewin' The Fat

    Violence and Lubrication is the solution to fixing everything, if it still doesn't work, you need more lubrication.

    There's no requirement to file a tax return if your income is below a certain threshold. Pretty much everything he says is true.

    But crashing a plane into a building isn't the best way to improve your life.
