It's probably wrong that I find it more tragic when something like this happens to a famous person,

but for some reason I do.

Scot said...: I think we'd be frozen in terror and grief if we took in all such tragedy. In a way, the famous cases can be representative for all the strangers. Or at least that's how I justify that, being upset about what makes the news but not being similarly moved by what else goes on under the media radar.; 10/25/2008 7:23 AM
Craig said...: I agree with Scot.

And this is just atrocious.; 10/25/2008 12:05 PM
B.G. Christensen said...: Okay, I don't feel so bad now for having feeling more sympathy for famous people. And I still feel horrible for her and her family. She was on the one season of American Idol that I watched and I liked her then, and then I was even more impressed when I saw her in Dreamgirls. I can't imagine what she's going through now.; 10/25/2008 2:54 PM
