She didn't even divulge information, she merely transferred a call. If that was enough to actually make her kill herself and leave her family behind, I submit that she was already on the mental edge.

I know some pranks can be cruel, but this didn't exactly strike me as cruel. Oh gawd we know about Kate Middleton's pregnancy?!


What happened?

I have decided that Pippa Middleton is one of those girls that sometimes looks good and other times doesn't and as such is an average looking chick.

Who said anything about dating? She seems like the type you string along for awhile just for the benefits then cut lose once boredom sets in.

The DJs called the hospital claiming to be Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. They asked to speak to someone about Kate's condition.

The nurse transferred the call to Kate's room, where a second nurse told them the details of her condition. That is an invasion of privacy and violation of protocol.

The first nurse felt so guilty, she committed suicide.

But what did she feel guilty about. It doesn't make sense.

I added a little more to my initial post.

The information given out was confidential. Although the nurses were duped, it was a violation of hospital protocol to release that information.

I think there is more to the suicide, but this may have been the last straw overall for this woman. And that's why she killed herself.

So I'm in Cincinnati this week working with a Fortune 500 consumer products company here (Duh? Now who could that be? :) )

My meetings end a little early yesterday so I'm able to get back to the hotel around 3pm. On my way back I stop in a local Tobbacco shop for a Cigar. (Oliva Series 'V' - nice smoke). As I'm lighting up the 'stick', a big dude (about late 60 something looking), walks past. The sales clerk, himself around 70, says to me, do you know who that is? I'm thinking, "no, I' not even from around here, how would I know that old grey haired black guy?". Turns out it was Oscar Robertson who's got a company he founded (ORChem) in the offices directly across the street.

Pretty cool.

There has to be more to that. What, she thought she was going to ger fired or be arrested since this is the royal family? I still don't really get it.

Hmmmmm. That is weird. Not a boys name, but I've dated 3 Rebeccas. The last one was weird because the 2nd to last one I was with for 7 years. That didn't last to long.
