Actually, if the circumstances were the same, once I got over the initial grief, I probably would. Life's too short to take everything so seriously...

I am in agreement with you here. The funerals I have been to in my family have had some element of celebrating the persons life and reliving fond memories. I also found it morbidly funny as well as recognized it in poor taste in the wrong setting.

Back to the topic at hand, Mark was one wacky character who made the game fun to watch.
