Why I'll Never Envy Famous People |
| 9/23/2008 10:22:50 AM |
 I think that the common attitude towards famous people stinks. It seems to me that the vast majority of famous people are put on a pedestal only to be knocked down again when they are bullied and harassed by the media at a later date. It is as though the fact that famous people are generally good looking and live in opulence serves as an adequate excuse to hate and... Read More |

 Meeting famous people can be a little intimidating if they are not prepared to talk to total strangers. Just like you and me, famous people need their privacy and if they are abruptly approached in public by complete strangers they may seem aloof and insensitive if they do not come across as being really interested in meeting you. Famous people often go to great lengths to... Read More |

Meet Famous People and Respect Their Space |
| 9/2/2008 8:13:34 AM |
| Meeting famous people can be a daunting experience. I used to think that famous people were some sort of demigods, and would get really intimidated when I met them, but after meeting a few of them, I discovered that they are just like you and I are; the big difference is that they have either achieved something to make them famous by using their considerable skills or...

Do we all know famous people? |
| 7/29/2008 4:58:41 PM |
| There's a theory of 6 degrees of separation that is somewhat controversial. It was popularized because of a mailing that worked a few decades ago, to where it proved that in a particular part of the northeastern United States, people were basically all connected by at most 6 people in between. But some argue that it is a subjective mailing and that that is not the case.... Read More |

What's the Big Deal about Famous People? |
| 6/25/2008 9:05:41 AM |
 Most of the general public are in awe of famous people, but I have never really understood why. I don’t believe for one minute that famous people are any better than you or I. They are just ordinary individuals with the same kind of thoughts and emotions as any other human being. I actually feel quite sorry for famous people. When famous people form new relationships with... Read More |

Dead People of the 08 Darwin Awards |
| 3/11/2008 1:00:26 PM |
The Darwin Awards is a morbid contestant that ranks and names winners for the most outrageous ways that people die. Dead people is an adherently morbid subject but after reading the 2008 candidates you may find a humorous side to dead people.
Candidate 1:
Just last month a Bulgarian biology teacher was coming home from a funeral. Her and her husband reportedly stopped in the road, ran to a man hole and poured some unknown chemicals down the drain. People think the chemicals were making them dizzy in the car. The chemical reaction caused an explosion, which decapitated her.
Candidate 2:
A 50-year-old New York man went bird hunting with friends and his dog. His dog found a deer leg bone and brought it back to his master. The man tried pulling the bone out of the dog’s mouth. Not having any luck he began swinging the butt end of his shotgun at the dog. The butt hit the ground, went off in his stomach and killed him.
Candidate 3:
A 23-year-old Pennsylvania man who had many body piercings decided to attach his piercings to workplace electrical equipment. After being warned not to, he did it. He was electrocuted to death.
- It is amazing how many dead people die from avoidable accidents. Famous people are not an exception to this rule either. Be safe so you don't wind up with one of these awards.
