DUH-worthy

Just the headline made me want to scream "DUH!"

Study: Rock stars more likely to die early.

DUH DUH DUH DUH DUH DUH!

Did we really need a study to tell us that?? Do we really need to quantify a first-five-years risk for people who finally hit the big time? Did time and money really need to be spent on a subject like this???

Reminds me of this other study that had me pitching a fit earlier this year!

*sigh!*

  1. Gosh, I hope that's not true.

    But then again I never DID become a star, so I guess I'm safe. Whew!

  4. Jeff> well, when one hits the big time, it always seems like drugs and alcohol play prominent roles in bringing the same one down... of course it's all up to the individual anyway :-)

    thoughtfulmind> thank you

    kapgar> my point exactly - although I guess I'm mad that *any* money was used on this.

  5. I just read a headline in the Sun Times yesterday that went something like "Study Shows Men More Attracted to Attractive Women"... uh...
