Bad Things Come in Threes....


While I was visiting Ed's grandma in the hospital this afternoon, she told me that Farrah Fawcett passed away today. I had heard this information earlier, and I think it's just terrible news. Her comment prompted a conversation about how bad things come in threes. I mentioned that Ed McMahon passed away earlier this week, and she said "Who will be next?" At the same time, we both said, "Bad things come in threes". I can't explain to you why, but I completely agree with this theory. I can't even come up with a specific example at the current moment, but it always seems to be true. As I was on my way home from the hospital, I heard on the radio that Michael Jackson had been rushed to the hospital. By the time I made it home, I randomly received 2 text messages that he had died. There's the third, grandma....

RIP Ed, Farrah, and Michael. Each of you will always be a part of my childhood memories in some way. As my friend Haley said about it "Some people are so infamous, you kind of feel like they are going to live forever." Unfortunately they do not... and it's very sad.

  2. It's so sad!! Michael was one of Jason's very first concerts, back when he was like 5 years old. He's pretty bummed tonight.
