"I Am Happy, Diana...And Nothing's Going to Hold Me Back!"

My favorite manic orphan, Anne Shirley* might be unaffected by this decision but where will the rest of the undoubtedly crazed and depressed citizens of Prince Edward Island turn in their moment of crisis?

A suicide hotline that's only open from 9 to 5?! That's like a pancake restaurant that's only open at night!! Ok..no. That would actually be pretty fantastic. In fact, I bet if more breakfast places were open at night, there would be less suicides. Just sayin'....

The article does bring up a good point: If you're suicidal, but conscientious and patient enough to look up the hotline number and "think it through," then can't you put off the self-killing till morning? No? Well if you MUST speak to someone, call a friend. Don't have any? Oh, that's really sad...man, your life sucks hard...Hello? You still there?....

* Seriously. You didn't get the reference? Where was PBS when you were growing up?
