My Two Cents Worth: They come in 3's

They come in 3's

It has long been said that celebrity deaths come in 3's. Yesterday morning we lost Farrah Fawcett to cancer, and last evening the children of America became just a little bit safer when Michael Jackson died of a heart attack at age 50. Who will be number 3? Some are considering the death of Ed McMahon a few days ago as part of the trifecta. Could be I suppose. Maybe, for America's sake, number 3 will be Obama. Or not, because then we would be stuck with that bufoon Biden.
