"Just be sure to stay away from any flesh eating bacteria and zombies."

Why do 'journalists' these days have to be cute and insert themselves into stories all the time? I will miss old-fashioned quality journalism that stuck to the facts and to clear language with no extranious 'cute' commentary (see above)!!! This piece is well written except for the last paragraph. I would have, though, preferred the article to have started with the word "have". Or would that have been too old-fashioned?

You gotta stop looking for news from blogs, sweetie. Bloggers are not journalists...yet. I got a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach that with newspapers failing and blogs exploding that the former will pick up these bad habits in an effort to survive.

I'm sure the last paragraph written by the cheap hack, mr. carmichael, was of great comfort to the Widow Evans. Where do you find such churlish writers?

I totally agree with you Marian. That comment irked me too! For something that serious that was not the right thing to print for sure.
