Too Fast. Too Furious....Too Soon, Bro.

Ok. I've never been known for being particularly sensitive where these matters are concerned, but does anyone else think the media is making just a little TOO big of a deal out of Paul Walker's death?

Yes, he was young, gorgeous, talented, a father, and apparently very generous, but it's not like he was a ginormous celebrity or a definitive actor in our time. Is it just a slow news week or something?

I mean, James Gandolfini was a ridiculously gifted actor that crossed genres, was a total philanthropist, especially for veterans and played one of the greatest TV characters ever written and his death wasn't even this sensationalized. And he dropped dead on a vacation. Paul Walker was in a speeding Porsche. I mean, we've all been there, but if I die while my dude is racing through the streets, a few people are going to roll their eyes, you know?

Meh. Maybe I'm just PMSing. AGAIN. Month after month with this bullshit. Ugh.
