My dad was a Dallas police officer for 30 years and worked as an accident investigator in the traffic division. I remember his saying that he worked accidents where someone should have been killed instantly and he worked fender benders that resulted in fatalities.

What it amounts to is that it doesn't matter how it happened or what was done afterwards. We can speculate, as is our nature, but the end result is tragically the same.

ETA: wfaa.com is reporting that an autopsy is being performed and that results will be available later today

Is the autopsy public record? Do they have to release the results?

Twiggy, I don't know. When I asked for one on the ex, I had to make a written request to the court and state why I wanted it. I didn't have any problem since Travis was his beneficiary and I am Travis' guardian and the insurance company was requiring the report.

I would think autopsy results are not public record.

When I spoke to the judge on the phone, he wanted to know who I was and in what capacity I was acting. He said that he had to protect the rights of the victim.

Got this of Wekipedia:

"The interior of the skull has sharp ridges by which a moving brain can be injured."

This I did not know.

Neeson Sees Broadway Tribute To Richardson
20 March 2009 5:00 AM, PDT


Devastated Liam Neeson was supported by his actor pals as he attended a moving tribute to tragic wife Natasha Richardson in New York on Thursday night.

Theatres on Broadway dimmed their lights for a minute in honour of the Maid in Manhattan star, who died on Wednesday from head injuries after a skiing accident.

Neeson emerged from his New York home to witness the tribute - and was comforted by his close friends Sarah Jessica Parker and her husband Matthew Broderick.

The Sex and the City star was among the crowds lining Broadway to pay their respects to Richardson, and was seen hugging Neeson as he attended the event with his wife's mother Vanessa Redgrave and other family members.

Meanwhile, fellow British actor Jeremy Irons struggled to contain his emotions as he spoke about Richardson during a television interview.

Asked for his thoughts on the tragedy on U.S. TV's The Today Show, Irons said: "It's... it's... absolutely terrible. It just reminds us how fragile life is. As a father and as a husband I feel for him - for the family - so, so much.

"I suppose what I have to remember is that could happen to any of us at any time - so make the most of it."

Staff at the Central School of Speech and Drama in London, where Richardson studied her craft, are to launch a scholarship fund in her memory.

LOL! Some UCLA students are up in arms! I tell you! At the choice of this year's commencement speaker: James Franco (Sean Penn's lover/Best Supporting Actor nominee in Milk). Says one of the anti-Franco contingent: "Anyone who has been in his classes knows he is an average student at UCLA. This is an accomplishment while working in his industry, but he is our academic peer, which makes him an inappropriate choice for a keynote speaker."

Mr Franco just graduated from UCLA (he majored in English). My question is: how did he major in English and I never got to teach him? I would have broken every self-imposed ethical rule I have.

Tish...I heard that there are photos of him sleeping in classes. I think that's part of the reason some folks don't want him there, too.

You might have been able to have some fun waking him up if you had taught him. lol

Sounds like a little jealousy from his "peers".

Bee, I think you could find pics of almost any student asleep in class at some point in his or her academic career. In fact, I think I may have fallen asleep in a graduate seminar--with only 8 students--once.

Tell me about it. I think half of the University that I attended was asleep at some point during the day. I'm not even saying that to be mean.

Do you all feel putting your info at the donor registration site is safe? they dont ask for your ss# but your birthdate and DL #. I just worry about identity theft.

LOL, Tishala!! I find it remarkable that an actor with his stature and potential (and his age, he isn't exactly right out of high school) has pursued his higher education so vigorously. Maybe he's not a perfect keynote speaker, but I'd take him. Oh, yes I would I would take him straight to . . . ahem. Good for him.

Pamy, this is the Oregon donor signup site. It didn't bother me a bit to provide the info for such a good cause. It's been a couple of years since I did it, and so far my identity is still intact.

I just hate giving moms maiden name..that used to be sacred for money type stuff. I guess they just want to be sure they have the right person.

thanks for the info!

LOL Tishala! Franco is super, duper yummy! Can't imagine how I'd even pay attention if he were in a class with me. Oh, how I wish I were a UCLA student.

Here's the photo of James Franco sleeping, from TMZ.

ETA - Speaking of TMZ, I am CONVINCED that James Franco's character in Pineapple Express is based on the long-haired blonde reporter dude on the TMZ show.
