I don't really feel close to any of my colleagues and

What a shocker. A young horse fractured his leg during the Derby. Let me use this day, as I do every year, to say how inhumane horse racing is. They run them too young and too hard and many of them end up crippled and at the slaughterhouse. Sad.

I found out a few minutes ago that a friend of mine passed away a couple hours ago. Someone had attacked him with a baseball bat Friday night. I've known this person and his entire family all my life. When I was younger our families went to church together so I was friends with him, his brother and his 2 sisters. His mom and dad were really great folks too. His sister and I were friends in the same grade since kindergarten. He was a hard-working, church-going person with a wife and kids. I've never known him to even be rude to anyone, so I have no idea why someone would attack him in the first place. I feel so sorry for his family. His mother passed a few years ago. In a way, I'm glad she wasn't here to see her oldest child pass away on Mother's Day, especially from such a violent cause.
