OK....has someone put something in the water? I've been watching CNN, and folks are dropping like flies!?

Question

Even an old tortoise has died!

Answer 1

Yes, there are times when that happens. People do drop like flies in an instant and then it is quite again for some time.

Wish Bin Laden would drop like a flie though. The price of oil will drop $10.00 a barrel instantly and that will save us money to do fun things like vacations.

Answer 2

I believe that everything that we have done to this planet is what is only now effecting us. Even though the media and companies trying to make money try to disprove global warming. I don't believe we can deny that something wrong is going on. Recent examples: Katrina, mudslides in California and the Phillipines that took out entire neighborhoods, and floods in places that never even flooded before.

Answer 3

For some odd reason, it seems celebrity/famous personalities die in groups of 3. It's weird, and I don't get it at all! Maybe the Grim Reaper gets bored taking plain old souls, so he decides to pick a few celebrities to make things interesting!

Answer 4

Approximately 9500 people die per day in the USA

and

146,000 people die per day around the world

I'd say.. CNN is a little behind on their reporting

Answer 5

That's sad about the tortoise. He was really old.

Answer 6

It always happens in three's. (except for of course...maybe the turtle)

Answer 7

yea the rich old Guy ...and the litle girls mom.....2 high profile type people....I was like wow too

Answer 8

if there is something in the water, then I'm glad I'm on the other side of the pond in the UK!!!!!!

Answer 9

that is not true.....I cant get these flies to drop here!

Answer 10

Sometimes it just happens that way.
