NOTED QUEMADO AUTHOR PASSES AWAY

QUEMADO February 15 � Ken Howell, 82, noted local author and raconteur, died of apparent natural causes at his Quemado residence Wednesday night, apparently peacefully in his sleep during the night, according to Quemado Police Department media representative Edithe Fantasia-Ephemera. No investigation is planned, according to Fantasia-Ephemera. Preliminary examination of Howell�s residence has revealed no suicide note and no evidence of drug abuse or foul play, Fantasia-Ephemera said.

Howell was transported by Quemado Fire Department ambulance to Quemado Regional Medical Center emergency room Thursday morning, where he was pronounced dead on arrival (DOA). Coroner�s spokesman Dr Mudd E Noggin informed the Myth-Legend that preliminary examination revealed no apparent indication of foul play. No autopsy is planned, Noggin said. Howell had been suffering from general physical decline for several years, according to Quemado Regional Medical Center spokespersons who spoke on condition of anonymity. Neighbors said that Howell always appeared in good spirits, with a ready smile and entertaining stories for his many visitors.

Howell was internationally renowned as the author of several books on a wide variety of technical subjects and an internationally respected technical and forensic expert on firearms.

Howell was the subject of a lengthy Myth-Legend interview and article in January, 2012, on the subject of his controversial analysis of �The Intricate Simplicities in the English Translations of the New Testament.�

Howell�s body was discovered by utilities repairmen who declined to be interviewed and requested anonymity.




Just got a new word-processor and have been having fun with a bit of throw-away blarney. (Just a little bit o' nil to add a tad of sparkle to a dull day!)

Thought that maybe a few at the 'fire might like to play with this, too.

Have a ball, y'all! laugh

Indulging in a bit of wishful thinking, Ken? Next up should be an obit, perhaps for the Quemado Daily Movement.

I must say, when I read the topic line I felt a shudder, but my eyes quickly moved to the poster's name.

Glad you're in excellent spirits if not in excellent health.

You shouldn't ought to post threads with titles like this one. You gave me a start.

Glad it's just a hoax of sorts.

The Quemado Daily Movement went down the drain quite some time ago.

So this is one of those "greatly exaggerated" deals.

I myself would have implied that I had died after falling from some megafox's second story bedroom window. It would ruin her reputation and establish mine.

Who was it some years ago on here that had a death notice posted and then resurfaced some months afterward?

Ken it is a little early for April fools jokes. We all have an appointment with eternity but please don't do that to those of us that read every thread that you start and your insight to others that you post on.

When your time comes you will be sorely missed to those who are left behind. Come to think about it maybe I will get to meet you at last when we depart this world in what is known as the rapture.

Have a nice day Ken.

Are Ken Howell dies made in a neck-size only version?
