What a Shame...


You rarely get second chances in life. Back in September of 2008, almost one year ago, DJ AM, a famous disc jockey, and Travis Barker, drummer for Blink 182, survived a plane crash that killed the men's two friends, the pilot, and the co-pilot on board.

Both recovered from severe burns and thanked God for a second chance at life. On Friday, DJ AM died of a drug overdose in his New York apartment.

What a waste of a second chance. I cannot imagine what his family and friends are going through. After overcoming his drug use in the past, it ultimately caused his untimely death.

For the second time in one year, they have had to deal with coming so close to death, unfortunately this time, he went all the way.

  1. Such a shame, but one less drug user off the streets. I love Gossip Girl!

  2. He had 8 oxycontin in his system, one in his mouth and I think a few in his hand. But the thing that shocked me was...

    finding out he was 36 years old.
