OK, I know I'm going to hell for posting something about Anna Nicole Smith right after posting something on 9/11, but I felt compelled. This story has to be out of some Shakesperian tragedy doesn't it? I mean really ... how many times does a mother give birth and her eldest son dies in the same day; in the same room? I'm sure his death is something explainable, but it does seem like the basic story line is straight out of the literature.
