Obituary

Oh, Mr. Alan Landers...
The man whose face advertised the tools to his very own murder.
His goal was to make money and work the system of Corporate America.
I chose this guy because it's pure irony.
To me, this guy made it to the very top of the system and yet he suffered a short life. What are the consequences of his occupation? Is it worth it?
He could very well be a model, but not a role model to me. If he had made the decision to smoke on his own, I might have thought it was fair. But because he pretty much blamed it on the pressures of being a model, I feel pity for him.
The fast track to fame might also be the fast track to the end.
My grandpa died from lung cancer and I know the risks.
He knew the risks. Everyone who holds a cig knows the risks.
