Bonus Post of the Day


Had to share the following article: THIS ONE  A very distinct, honest look at the media coverage (or lack thereof), delving into the increasing cross-cultural tragedy of addiction. This is not a somber, sappy or lecturing article. It has just the "right" tone. And, it is extremely well-written.

  1. Thank you, Shauna, for posting it. I wholeheartedly agree with the editor. It would have been tacky to bring up her drug addiction at the funeral in any way besides the subtle comments on her 'battles' - beyond dropping that from the coverage it is time to stop ignoring the problems with prescription drugs.

  2. Hello P - Yep. I liked the article, obviously, and believe it dealt w/ excellent points. However, I was not at all expecting anyone to bring up her addictions at the funeral... Otherwise, the author was spot on.
