That's got to be unsettling. Waking up to your own obituary...

LOL I read about this, the guy is still young and they're already writting his obituary, simply because he had a bout with cancer.  It would be funny if he found the article before they retracted.

Although, in truth, it'd be a heck of a deal for me. If I become affluent enough to have Bloomberg type up a pre-mortem obit for me, I'll have done pretty well in life, don'tcha think?
