I heard her kid is the second coming of Jesus. And by heard, I mean I made it up in my head.

haha a human being died! hahahaha! that's rich!

Yeah Chris, you're right: The appropriate thing to do is spend the next few days mourning the tragic loss of this pill-popping, illiterate set of tits and the pathetic diversion she made for celebrity rubberneckers.

Fuck Anna Nicole Smith. I am seriously glad she's dead. I mean it. I don't want to waste another second of my life hearing or thinking about her. Every day, 150,000 people die that were more interesting and worthwhile than that barely-verbal freakshow. At least now her baby stands a chance. Here's hoping Britney is next.

It's not funny; it's insane that anyone gives a shit beyond her immediate family. She was hardly alive as it was.

i wasn't really being sarcastic. death is god's punch line.

I'm going to have to agree here with Ed.

The death of Anna Nicole Smith counts as a victory in the wars against drugs, jackass-television, and sexually transmitted diseases. Here's to hoping that the flesh drips off her body in chunks when she reaches Hell.

VJ, I won't speak for EvilEd but "a victory in the wars against drugs" would be drug legalization.

I too am glad she's dead.

Problem is, there are still plenty of her ilk in circulation. We need to take steps to reduce their numbers.

You know, if some sniper were to pick off mindless air-headed Muppets like her (i.e. Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, et al) I'd cheer him on, and if he was caught I'd make a donation to a defense fund, or something.

But yeah: fuck her. She wasn't even that hot to begin with, except maybe in a very trashy, loathsome way.

FearlessLeader, I'll speak for VJ: I mean, I mean, I meant whatever you meant for me to mean. I am a mindless spineless sycophant trying to sleep my way into The Beast. I have stalked Chris Riordan from Buffalo to Utica and down to NYC where I asked him to meet up with me for some drinks I plan on buying him so he loses his inhibitions and finally comes out of the closet all over my chest.

As for Anna Nicole - I mean, yeah, she's pretty much the last person you want your daughter to grow up into. But she is dead, and her kid died a few months ago. Probably both murdered by the Evil version of Howard Stern. If dancing and spitting on graves gives you a big boner, by all means - do the cha cha and mock her life and death. You're all going to hell anyway.

However, there are bigger "fish to fry" than Anna Nicole Smith's corpse. If you are really interested in changing the world we live in, that is.

Changing the world? Not likely.

At least the sorry state of the world provides comedians with material. They're generally the only ones who benefit; well, them and the carrion birds.

I think it speaks volumes about the state of our nation that CNN would bump a discussion on atheism with Richard Dawkins as a guest, just to spend an entire hour devoted to this worthless waste of humanity.

That's what happened Thursday night on Paula Zahn's show - the atheism show was rescheduled to Monday night, FYI.

You know what I find funny about all this? All the Britney's shaved head and Anna Nicole coverage is being blamed by many on a "slow news period", something I would have thought was impossible given there's a war in Iraq, we still ain't found Osama, and Samuel L. Jackson's in a movie where he ties up a half-naked Christina Ricci.
