Richard, gutsy post.

Diane's death was sad, especially for her children. They will have to grow up now without a mother. At least they will have plenty of servants taking care of their every whim.

A sadder death to me recently was in Seattle. A local fireman, a real local hero, was stabbed to death in the parking lot by a crazed lunatic, while walking with his three boys to their car after a Mariners ballgame.

The lunatic had been arrested over 30 times for aggressive behavior over a 5 year time span. Unfortunatly NOONE had enough guts to keep the nut locked up for life! Police at the scene said over and over how they knew that guy would kill someone one day.

Can you imagine what it must have been like for his sons to watch their father bleed to death in the parking lot of a ball game! It still gives me the shakes thinking about it.

The Royal family will recover from this tragedy, how many will remember the local fireman and his sons?
