Shock

It is amazing how much a day can change. This afternoon, I went downtown to look around, I had a really good time. I checked out this really funky travelbook store, met a cute guy there. Checked out the galleria mall, it is such a beautiful mall too bad it is practically empty. Checked out the beautiful main branch of the London Public Library (way nicer then Skidsbury). All in all it was a good afternoon checking out places I hadn't been before. I went into this one store Speedcity Records, trying to find a used Dixie Chicks and Madonna cd since mine have mysteriously disapeared to no avial. As I am looking around I hear CHRW playing so I talk to the clerk, and ask him if they listen to it all the time, because I do newscast theres thursdays and fridays, and then he says have you heard about Kaarlo who is the general manager, I say no, and he procedes to tell me that he has died, and that Grant the program manager had found him yesterday. I was/am in shock, so I go straight to the station to see if this guy is telling me the truth, and Jimmymac tells me it is. We don't know what happened, it could have been a heart attack or something to do with this diabetes. Apparently it happened thursday night, but he wasn't found until Monday when Grant went to his place after he didn't show up to work. It just seems so surreal that Kaarlo could be dead. He is only 38. He was such a nice guy, the station won't be the same without him. An unexpected death can really make you appreciate the sanctity of life, and how precious it really is. No funeral arangements have been made as of yet, his mom is coming in from Finland. So that was my day. Oh yeah I have a phone conference with Wanda tommorow, so I will hopefully have more news.
