I know, this may be overreaching, but the difference between the two Bismarks seem to reflect the decline of the West.

Never heard of him, but he sounds like the German Paris Hilton.

the coroner's verdict was "death by misadventure,"

Interesting cause of death. I always wonder how the war would have been if the Bismarck had not been sunk so early.

No, I think it’s very indicative of the generations and how grave his ancestor was and how frivolous he was. There needs to be a balance.

As an undergraduate, he was known for his lavish parties and extravagant appearance, which at times involved dressing in fishnet stockings or traditional Bavarian lederhosen.

Oh sure, like you never did that.

Bismarck eventually settled in London, working in finance and the telecom business. He remained out of the headlines until August, when a 38-year-old man, Anthony Casey, died after falling from a terrace during a party at Bismarck's home.

Thought I remembered the name. What the article sanitizes is that the second death he was previously associated with (described above) was part of a drug-fueled homosexual orgy.

I remember the feller from the "Bucket Of Dildos" story of last year. Kinda hard to forget. Something about one of his guests ingesting five times the lethal dose of cocaine during a gay S&M orgy and dancing on the rooftop until he fell to his death.

I never get invited to the good parties...
