Thanks for posting this dude. And the big stories today.

I have had a week that has left my wife & I reeling which includes 2 young (24 & 31) friends dead of self inflicted gunshots within 12 hours of each other. One accidental, one not (Well, presumed so. He is still missing & from the note his family as expecting the worst).

The deaths are unrelated just horribly coincidental.

Weird. I am so sorry to hear that.

But it's weird, because I was going to post, as part of my Johnny Winter tribute, about an old friend of mine who killed himself.

I decided not to do it, because I did not think anyone would get why I would go on and on about a friend who killed himself in a post about Johnny Winter's death. Even though I can explain why, well, it's just too personal, so I refrained from posting it ...

Life is very sad sometimes.

I think back and I have lost too many friends to suicide and drugs.

And me. And murder as well, unfortunately.

Give me a shout over the weekend if you have a chance. The coincidences in these deaths really knocked me back on my heels.

I will.
