Holy... mother of...

All this time I thought y'all here were a bunch of nobodies I don't know and never will know. (no offense, but this IS an internet forum). But after this... I realize I was very wrong. I don't have to know you in real life to be friends with you guys, and we have in fact lost a friend who is no less than a real-life friend. I feel the loss and it's very moving to see everyone coming together to wish him well on the flipside. Hating drunk drivers has now become personal... that guy better fry for this!

RIP acemcmac.
 
Dedicated to his family and friends.

Last night I had a crazy dream
A wish was granted just for me
It could be for anything
I didnt ask for money
Or a mansion in malibu
I simply wished, for one more day with you

Chorus

One more day
One more time
One more sunset, maybe Id be satisfied
But then again
I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you

First thing Id do, is pray for time to crawl
Then Id unplug the telephone
And keep the tv off
Id hold you every second
Say a million I love yous
Thats what Id do, with one more day with you

Chorus

Leave me wishing still, for one more day
Leave me wishing still, for one more day
 
Once again we are reminded of how short life can be and why we should appreciate the little things.

RIP bro :beer:
 
life is so fragile

RIP
 
Wow this is so unbelievable and sad 🙁

I didn't know the guy that well on here but his name I definitely recognize. I hope that guy gets the worst possible punishment and that acemcmac's family and friends can make it through this tough time.
 
I just read the thread above this... unbelievable. If there is an afterlife, I hope it is a good one for acemcmac, and I pray that his family isn't ruined by this tragedy.

I also hope that a judge throws the book at the POS that decided to drive with a BAC three times the legal limit :|

R.I.P

You know what? I've been wanting to wake up at sunrise for a long time now, but the business of Uni life has prevented me from doing so. Well screw it, I'm going to go to bed earlier and wake up with the sun. And remember to appreciate all the things I take for granted - like waking up the next morning... and the next... and the next.

acemcmac's death hits close to home because he was also a college student - he had so much to look forward to!
 
a sunrise: the perfect example of life starting over on a fresh day...
may you find your new life on mother earth more everlasting than the last

RIP acemcmac


ariafrost, tis true that it hits close to home.. I walk a LOT on campus, and sometimes far away across campus to have fun, and walkin back late at night now is scarier.
why is there so many close to home deaths all of a sudden.. first the kid in the elevator, similar to my experiences, and then acemcmac simply walking at night, I'm assuming somewhere by campus. 🙁
 
I didn't know Ace, but I think if people are down, a fitting tribute might be to get people to get up a little early tomorrow morning and go outside, take a picture of the sunrise and post it here in this thread for Ace. Just a picture and a note saying where you are.

Edit: http://www.almanac.com/rise/

That might help with know when to get up.
 
This one's for you Rick:

what a beautiful face
i have found in this place
that is circling all round the sun
what a beautiful dream
that could flash on the screen
in a blink of an eye and be gone from me
soft and sweet
let me hold it close and keep it here with me
and one day we will die
and our ashes will fly from the aeroplane over the sea
but for now we are young
let us lay in the sun
and count every beautiful thing we can see


don't take a single day for granted guys.

Probably one of the best ways to start the last day of one's life.

This reminds of the beginning to the movie "The Outsiders" where Pony Boy was saying something about the sunset or something...
