Life ----- Definitely Not Fair
So this brilliant doctor who has had a long and very successful career, a nationally recognized expert in infectious diseases, decides to make a radical change in his life after some tough years -- surviving a bypass surgery and caring for his former wife who died of a neuromuscular disorder in 2001.
So he remarries and moves to Botswana, where the AIDS rate is 40%, to help deal with the disease and train healthcare workers there. And then one day... http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/africa....ap/index.html |

I don't blame the crocodile. Who wants to eat something infested with the AIDS virus?

Nope, life is not fair. I'm sure he knew that going in. Too bad he didn't get a chance to do more good.

Actually, it sounded like he had put it all together. Other than going sooner than he may have wanted what more could he have asked for?

SRV died in a helicopter just a short while after giving up cocaine and whiskey.

Life was definitely not fair to the guy who got hit by a train at the station near my house this morning. I got there after they'd moved the train but before they'd removed the remains. All I saw was a foot sticking out from underneath a bloody sheet, but it was still a bit more gruesome than I like my day to begin.

So... in essence, crocodiles are to blame for Botswana's AIDS problem?
