Anna Nicole Smith 5

The former Playboy model Anna Nicole Smith has died at the age of 39 after collapsing at a Florida hotel, her lawyer said tonight.

Smith collapsed and was found unresponsive while staying at the Seminole Hard Rock Cafe Hotel and Casino, said the lawyer, Ron Rale. She was rushed to hospital.

Normally, I wouldn’t comment on this, figuring it would be beat to death in other media.

But it happened that my colleague and I were talking about her just this morning on the way to the jobsite.

We agreed on one thing regarding the lawsuit over her husband’s estate: If he married her of sound mind and she made him happy in his last years, then she lived up to her end of the bargain and deserved her payoff.

As my colleague said, it’s unlikely that a rich old man an aged wealthy gentleman who was smart enough to amass all that money would kid himself about the nature of the relationship.

    (While almost in a dead faint…) We agree on something here. He (the old man) knew, & she made him happy.

    You’re a rich girl, and you’re going to far ’cause you know it doesn’t matter anyway… you can rely on the old man’s money, you can rely on the old man’s money…

    (I don’t even mean to make any point with that, other than this post made me think of the song. For that matter Lyin’ Eys

    In some warped way, Frank, your theory makes me feel better than what I think most people are thinking about the situation, which can probably be summed up at http://tinyurl.com/2gcfah.

    People who take a job and do honest work deserve their pay.

    In whatever form it was promised.
