Don't know if you guys have seen it on the news but there was a big downside to the storm you guys got out in CO. My buddy i went to high school with was on a private plane leaving Telluride with his father who happens to be Dick Ebersol (pres. of NBC sports) and it crashed on take-off, killing the pilot, stewardess and my buddies 14 year old bro who also attends the high school i went to. Dick and my buddy are alive and in stable condition but it's an awful situation. Sorry to post such a grim one with all the talks of pow pow. Just keep the fam in your thoughts/prayers. It has to be awful to survive a plane crash when your bro who was sitting next to you didn't make it. Thanks guys.

Positive thoughts to you and the Ebersol family. This type of news hits a little close to home for me as well.

No one deserves the pain associated with a tragedy, and Raps you're right - give thanks for family but Fucking Damn it, I'm tired of hearing about this asshole Ebersol - BooHoo, because he works for NBC he deserves all this fucking attention, more so than the hundreds of other people that die tragically each day - ?
No, u really are.

I saw this yesterday. No one deserves to loose a loved one before it is time.

Hey general thanks for that point - cause yeah, uaremental, i wasn't asking your opinion of who's misfortune should be publicized. Whether he is famous or not, it has no relevance, the family is close to me, i was just asking for a little support, not for someone to step on others misfortunes.

It's a small world. An old roommate of mine is a friend of Susan St. James and used to ski with them.
Envy makes people bitter, guys. Don't buy into it.

It appears they found Edward Ebersol under the wreckage. Sad day. My condolences to the families and friends of all those who were killed.
