I Won't Do That

Sometimes you need to let go. I mean, I can recall being an impetuous teenager and a nutty young adult but even I wouldn't go to these lengths. But maybe I'm just lazy. RIP Jackie. I doubt he was worth it.


Dr Jacquelyn Kotarac: What happened to Dr Jacquelyn Kotarac?

Dr Jacquelyn Kotarac, 49, died in a chimney.

Dr Kotarac, 49, tried to climb down the chimney of her boyfriends home. Kotarac got stuck in the flue and died.


Kotarac had tried to enter her boyfriend’s home by the door but was unsuccessful so she climbed up to the roof and squeezed herself into the chimney.

She was missing for 3 days before her body was found. The news from Bakersfield, California, was known on Tuesday, Aug 31.

The coroner ruled Dr Kotarac’s death was due to mechanical asphyxia, and the manner of her death was accidental.

Kotarac, 49, visited her boyfriend, William Moodie, 48, on Wednesday night, Aug 25, 2010. Moodie left his home via his back door and that was when Kotarac tried to gain entry into his home using the chimney. Moodie returned to his home on Thursday. Then he left home to go on a business trip for several days.

A cleaner at Moodie’s home saw fluids dripping from the chimney and smelled odors. When firemen arrived, they had to dismantle the chimney to remove the decomposing body.

She was just trying to block Santa Claus from bringing him any stuff.

Their relationship was described as "on-again, off-again." I'm guessing this was the off-again stage if she came in through the chimney.

Death is never really dignified, but man.

You would think that, being a doctor and all, she would have better judgment. Then again, smarter people have done dumber things. Love does some crazy shit to some people.

Being a Doctor just means she focused her smarts on a narrow target, possibly neglecting of the other parts of her social development.

I was OK with this post until I read about the part where fluids were dripping. Now anytime I check on a new comment its all I remember.

Being trapped in the chimney scared the piss out of her.

She looks a little "off" - (headed straight to hell.)

This is what I don't get - she's beautiful, has a nice career, smart enough, a good salary and the wherewithall to make it thru medical school; and she freaks over a bit of penis??

A cautionary tale, I suppose. Women take sex just a teensy bit more personal than men do - but, come on, Jackie! You could've written your own ticket woman!

She was probably a shrink. They're always the most secretly fucked-up ones.

I believe she was an internist.

This is the eternal mystery. Why do people persist in doing things they know are bad for them?

I wonder if she was drunk or doing drugs. Or maybe her surviving family could sue the author of the Harry Potter books. As I recall, traveling from one fireplace to another was one of Harry's favorite modes of transportation. I bet if that woman had never heard of floo powder, she'd be alive today.

Oh yeah, is anybody else reminded of that astronaut who flipped out over a bad relationship?
