A friend of mine was killed in a car accident last night.
I am pretty bummed. He left a wife and little boy. I came across this video though, and it is kinda old, so some of y'all have seen it. It lifted my spirits a little. Please watch.

20. Thanks everyone. It has been a rough day.
The funeral was today. So sad. A 29 year old woman is a widow now, and an almost 2 year old is fatherless. I am so sad about this.
