Could she have been slipped something, or could something else have gone wrong? She just didn't seem like a drunk driver type. <br /><br />I hope there will be a serious and comprehensive medical examination and police enquiry. Something here just doesn't add up. <br /><br />But my very sincere condolences to those who lost their loved ones in this terrible incident.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11636447.post-29331033725542468742009-08-05T16:58:57.986-04:002009-08-05T16:58:57.986-04:00Andy, you have seen and will continue to see thing...Andy, you have seen and will continue to see things in a different light forever--especially when you look at your son, perhaps.<br /><br />Thank you for reminding us, however painful it is for you to do so, how our actions send out ripples into the world--ripples that we often never see or intend.<br /><br />Perhaps 'John' has yet to experience ripples that have affected him as closely or as dearly as some have affected you.

Frankly, having dealt with many deaths in my own family, I too find a thread of relevance to each and every loss of life. Death can affect us profoundly, and the fact that Mr. Ostroy reaches out to us and speaks of his grief and loss says a lot about his character - and your impatience at this says a lot about yours. <br /><br />If I had my druthers, I'd say that Andy's musings are far, far more interesting than you and your comment could ever attain to be.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11636447.post-20224997872789650942009-08-05T16:31:59.954-04:002009-08-05T16:31:59.954-04:00Hey John, thanks for the concern about my late wif...Hey John, thanks for the concern about my late wife. I would hope that somehow she's aware that you are looking for her as I shamelessly exploit her. <br /><br />Two thoughts: when <em>your</em> wife gets brutally murdered, you can decide how much you want to talk and write about it; and, when you have your own blog, you can also decide what you want to write and when. Until then, if you don't appreciate how or what I write, you're free to not to read...<br /><br />Unfortunately, you've clearly missed tyhe point I made.The Ostroy Reporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04955421147082736335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11636447.post-77637038984282941342009-08-05T15:09:50.290-04:002009-08-05T15:09:50.290-04:00Andy, must you exploit your wife's death and p...Andy, must you exploit your wife's death and parallel her death to every death you write about and turn it into a "I know how they feel" story? Dont get me wrong, sympathy should go out to you and youve experienced great loss and no one is saying you shouldnt feel sorrow. But this is like the 3rd or 4th story youve written where you've mentioned your wife. This story is really nothing like your wife's death. Liam Neeson's wife's death was nothing like your wife's death.<br /><br />Its beginning to look like the ONLY reason you write stories like this is to mention you know "how they feel". It would be better if you just wrote a tribute to your wife every once in a while. This just seems like exploitation. I know I will get attacked for this, but I think deep down you know my point, so Im ready for the attacks.Johnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11636447.post-64970969356418091352009-08-05T14:34:55.977-04:002009-08-05T14:34:55.977-04:00Amen...Amen...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11636447.post-80214928707275064322009-08-05T14:16:14.314-04:002009-08-05T14:16:14.314-04:00My gut feeling is this woman had been taking selec...My gut feeling is this woman had been taking selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. These drugs cause mega violence in a small proportion of users. The most dangerous episodes occur when the user is just beginning or ending the regimen. Thus it is possible this woman may have no trace of these drugs in her system and still be suffering the effects of their use.starviegohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05321589493629069842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11636447.post-79556054899317647892009-08-05T11:29:23.857-04:002009-08-05T11:29:23.857-04:00SUe the ALCOHOL CAMPANIES Like You did TOBACCO,And...SUe the ALCOHOL CAMPANIES Like You did TOBACCO,And put a 2.00 per drink TAX on EVery Beer,drink,shot,Bottle,Can,And SO on...BOOZE KILLS and Pays Nothing Like a SMOKER PAYS,Who may by the way only harm themselvesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11636447.post-88250802492921051782009-08-05T11:24:57.328-04:002009-08-05T11:24:57.328-04:00I'm not sure why you are highjacking this man ...I'm not sure why you are highjacking this man blog to talk abotu the war.

Are we americans so comfortable and indifferent to death that we shrug off the murders and violence committed in our name. Eight people died in Long Island due to a selfish act. In Pakistan our drones have MURDERED over one thousand civilians in another useless and senseless act. I hope our compassion and anger will be willing to take actions against both events.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
