I just read that actor/comedian Henry Gibson (73) and singer Mary Travers (72) just died. Add Patrick Swayze from the other day and it happened in threes. |

I've noticed big deaths tend to happen in threes. There was a period from like 2004-2008 where it happened a lot. I can't remember the individuals but my ex-roomie and I noticed it and started to bet on it. |

These were historical individuals who will live on in history and in our minds. There's something to be said about a person's death not being our great lost, but the individual's greatest loss instead. I'm not attempting to diminish the significance of the pain on our heart-strings, though. |

Ah, but when does the third one stop, and the first one begin?
There's the rub. |

I think you missed out the most important death of the year: the death in the last week of Dr. Norman Borlaug. |
