ANNA NICOLE SMITH - DEAD

Former Playmate / Trim Spa Spokeswoman / Train Wreck Anna Nicole Smith has died after collapsing in her hotel room, report various scavenging media outlets.

What's more, news of this is already up on Wikipedia. Moments ago the article included a statement that Smith's boyfriend / possible baby-daddy Howard Stern had murdered her, but that appears to have been taken down.

Gawker, with its infinite resources as a blogging juggernaut, has a record of the graffiti'ed Wiki article.

Potential zingers over this news item abound, but let's take a moment to remember what awesome television The Anna Nicole Show was. That show was like a weekly dose of pure, uncut Schadenfreude.

Does anyone ever feel like the world is so weird that we must live on some alternate version of Earth, rather than actual Earth?

All that I can say is that of all the possible worlds, while this may not be the best, it is certainly the most entertaining. Thank you, television, and thank you Anna Nicole Smith, for making sure that I never have to pay attention to Voltaire again.

Yeah I checked Wikipedia too. Love the quick changeover to the past tense in all references to her. Such a tragic turn to an already tragic story.
