Or slipped in the shower or choked on her own vomit.

Still not in my forties.

I don't know. Been trying to find out but no one seems to know anything.

Just read that a decapitated woman was found topless, wrapped in black plastic bags this morning and that too is classified as unnatural causes.... dah really.... :???:
Edit: NOT in The Reflections condo, if anyone drew that conclusion....

It's interesting that the headline mentions "Caucasian" because if someone is found dead, why would the race matter? A death is a death. But I guess race matters here much more than one might suspect.

That was the newspaper headline. I didn't actually give it a lot of thought....

Yes, the newspapers here mention race when it's unwarranted.

Who is Caroline Brett? Why?

I like when they ask me my race to my face. Like it's not obvious.

Actually Singaporeans are learning that not all races are obvious...my son looks caucasian but describes himself as Eurasian and sometimes Malay.

My friends adopted Indonesian son calls himself 'Punjab' as that's what his mother is.

God knows what our little girl from Indian genes will call herself in time.

Heard now that this woman died of natural causes. A heart attack.

At the same time, I hear that a 40 year old man was found dead this past Friday in a different block. Police are investigating.
