No, never....the world is perfectly safe happy and rainbows and such....... and people like heath ledger never unexpectedly die.....but on a more serious note someone was murdered right down the road from my house when I was little, scary stuff.

My sister was a PA on one of the 'big 3' nightly news casts here in Chicago, and explained to one of the anchors between broadcasts why the writing in a piece was misrepresenting an important fact, and when he did the story on a later broadcast, he actually overrode the prompter! Freaking amazing!

Anyone else hear about the Fox news reporter talking about how Lincoln LEFT office???? As in, he didn't know Lincoln was assassinated and was serving his second term.
