Twenty-year-old Jonathan Michael "Sully" Sullivan, a native of Birmingham, died unexpectedly on Wednesday, June 15, 2011 while rock climbing with friends in Virginia. Jonathan will be lovingly remembered and deeply missed by the family and friends he leaves behind. He was a student at Shelton State Community College in Tuscalooosa and was planning to attend the University of Alabama, where he was invited as a walk-on to the Crimson Tide football team. He was a 2008 graduate of Spain Park High School in Hoover. A gifted athlete and musician, Jonathan sang in the Spain Park High School Show Choir, lettered in track, and played on the defensive line for the Jaguars under head football coach John Grass. He helped lead the Jaguars to the state championship game in 2007 and graduated with a scholarship to play football at The University of North Alabama. At UNA, he played football as a defensive lineman under head coaches Mark Hudspeth in 2008 and Terry Bowden in 2009. Jonathan helped lead his football team to a 2009 National Championship. In lieu of flowers, memorial gifts may be made to Crimson Tide Foundation, P.O. Box 870343, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487-0343, to help establish a football scholarship in Jonathan's memory.

I'm not sure I agree with the first sentence in that obituary.

You think it was expected or you saying it is impossible to die if you are actually "climbing"?

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

I took it as meaning "unexpected death" and "rock climbing" don't go together.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."
