72 hour internet gaming session

I read on Yahoo today that a Chinese guy from the southern boomtown of Guangzhou died after playing internet games for three consecutive days! Wow - playing games for three days solid without sleep, that’s hardcore dedication. No mention of what the game was, it would sure be interesting to know (aswell as knowing which avatar he chose).

Maybe one to add to the wikipedia list of unusual deaths? (which is well worth a read if you’ve never seen it before). It’s an article which made me think about my own death - when will I die? How will I die? How would I want to die?

And then I started thinking about life again - what exactly is it that I want to accomplish before I die? Would I happy with my life if I died tomorrow? Anyway, no internet gaming for me for a while, so it goes.
