they always seems to go in threes....

so liam neeson's wife passed away yesterday. and on the 13th betsy blair (gene kelly's wife at some point, she just missed out on an academy award for a movie she did once) passed away from cancer, and about a week ago, an ex-wrestler was found dead in his home in tampa florida, making him the 4th ex-wrestler to do so in 2 years.

but i'm still keeping my ears open for any more deaths cause i'm not sure if the wrestler qualifies.

i mean, I'VE heard of him, but i don't know if he was well-known enough.

i guess we shall see in the next few weeks.......

UPDATE:

UK celebrity Jade Goody (of Big Brother fame) died on sunday in her sleep after a 7 month battle with cancer.

and not ALL aspects of wrestling is fake. the tricks take actual skill to pull off successfully, and the bloody is real. and unfortunately, so are the injuries and in-ring deaths.

admittedly the moves are choreographed, but if you watch stars such as rey mysterio and jeff hardy, they perform high-flying stunts which are pretty awesome. and that's mostly what i watch it for. the off-stage drama can be quite terrible, but it's more entertaining than Y&R or B&B. cause there's cute guys and people actually get hurt.

i loves it.

I know, but I just love to go along with the American tradition of the real/fake debate. lol.

And, I have seen some excellent youtube videos of broken legs, knock outs, blood etc. All makes for great entertainment! Jr Her loves watching the wresting, does my son...
