• two suicides of men who were respected within their community within one week,
• a baby’s death,,
• the death of a legendary leader of the community due to West Nile,
• the death of a journalistic icon, who reported the death of President John F. Kennedy
• a toddler’s death from heatstroke after being left in a day care van and
• a police shooting in South Dallas (sub. req.).

On the other hand, a couple was seen at Barnes & Noble over the weekend checking out the books on “weddings.” While browsing through a book on how to be the perfect bridegroom, the handsome bridegroom-to-be said to his bride-to-be, “I’m gonna be a washout at the wedding.” Her response: “You’re going to be wonderful as a husband.”
