A study of more than 1,000 mainly British and North American artists, spanning the era from Elvis Presley to rapper Eminem, found they were two to three times more likely to suffer a premature death than the general population.

Well it started about a month ago, when I was wondering what ever happen to my girlfriend from high school. I have been searching the web for a site that could help me locate her. Just when I thought I found a site that could do the job, I would get the smoke and mirrors trick, bummer.It started to seem that I was never going to find her, I came across a site calledpeople finder. While at the site I was able to get her phone number and an address. So I took a chance and wrote her a letter, saying who I was,praying she would remember me from back in the day. At the bottom of the letter I left my phone number so she could call me if she wanted to. Success, she called me… We talked for hours catching up. Luck for me the timing was right, she is moving back into town. You are probably thinking by reading this blog this is some sale scheme. I assure you this is not. I just want to write about this site I found, because with out this site I would have not found my girlfriend from high school. Check this site out and tell me what you think…. Good luck to you people out there on the world wide web.

I wonder if the new owner will put it on pimp my ride. That would be sick, I wonder where they will put the X-box at?

“A steam-powered car, billed as the oldest car in the world that still runs, will be sold in a Pebble Beach, Calif., auction in August.

The car was built in France in 1884, about a year before Gottlieb Daimler and Karl Benz of Germany built their first experimental gasoline-powered cars (The two were working independently of one another.) Henry Ford, the man many Americans mistakenly believe invented the automobile, built his first car 12 years after this one.”
