Anna Nicole Smith is Dead

Hi Everyone,

as shocking as it may sound,it is true. Anna Nicole Smith Died today, at the age of 39, in a Hotel Room in Florida. Of course, there’s a bunch of Speculation now as to How she died. There’s Rumours of Drug Overdose and even of Murder. The one Thing that I’m wondering most about though,is what’s gonna happen to her 5 months old Daughter. My Heart goes out for that little Earthling. Well,that’s it for today. I don’t really feel like much Blogging today. I just wanna say that my Husband is an Ass somedays and today was one of those days.

So long, My Friends.
