As his stepmother had not even taken leave of him, but had entrusted his departure to the relative with whom he had been lately living, it was considered as an act of "riddance," and accepted as such by her party, and even vaguely acquiesced in by the boy himself. ❋ Bret Harte (1869)

By the way it's spelled "riddance" not "riddens" as for Michele, you're correct, now that they've awoken, about all you'll have left up there is an occasional "bear siting". frustrated wrote on Sep 11, 2009 11: 57 PM: ❋ Unknown (2009)

Robert [Sherrill] is a liberal anti-gun reporter from New York. He wrote a book called "[Saturday Night Special]," mainly about how bad guns are. In it, however, he raised an interesting point, one that is a dirty secret, something which decent people are not supposed to mention publically: Of the people killed with guns every year, how many are true "tragedies," and how many are we frankly better off without? When drug dealer A kills drug dealer B, Handgun Control, Inc., marks it down as a [terrible loss] to society. In fact, drug dealer B may have been a boil on the butt of society, and will not be missed at all. When Blood A kills Crip B, Sarah Brady [wails] "See, you are more likely to kill an acquaintance than a stranger." When a women kills the man who has been beating her and the kids for years, the anti-gunners say, "If there had been [no gun] around they would have turned into Ward and June Cleaver and lived happily ever after." I say GOOD RIDDANCE. One less drug dealer, one less wife abuser, one less psychopathic [social parasite] suits me just fine. Certainly some good, innocent people die from gunshot wounds every year, but I wonder how many? Nobody keeps statistics on decent folks vs. dirtbags. So often when I read about a shooting in the newspapers, it seems to occur in the parking lot behind a bar at 3:00 a.m., and the victim has a tattoo of Satan on his arm and a rap sheet like a roll of [Brawny] paper towels. Pardon me if I'm not heartbroken about society's terrible loss. Whenever you hear somebody talking about the number of tragic gun deaths, remember to adjust the statistics to take into account the estimated Good Riddance Factor. ❋ (I Am) John Doe (2009)

Lyrics to [Good Riddance] (Time Of Your Life): Another turning point, a [fork stuck in the road] Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go So make the best of this test and don't ask why It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right I hope you had the time of your life So take the photographs and still frames in your mind Hang them on a shelf in good health and good time Tattoos and memories and dead skin on trial [For what it's worth], it was worth all the while It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right I hope you had the time of your life It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right I hope you had the time of your life It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right I hope you had the time of your life ❋ Lucio Soph (2010)
