oh noyou didn't

When I was a child, I saw a TV show called The Lady and the Tiger. For those of you who do not know the myth, there is a line up of doors...one having the safety of the Lady, the other the danger of the Tiger. The end is ambiguous about which door the person chooses.
This traumatized me! I do not like ambiguity.
The Sopranos, which I loved, loved, loved, ended with the same ambiguity...does Tony live or die. They set it up beautifully, the tension was palpable. But the end was a cop out to me.
I am going to pretend to myself that he lived.
There were lots of laughs though and the cat spooking Paulie was wonderful.
I would like to think they left it this way so maybe they could come back with a sequel. That would be great!
