Freddogg Off The Chain

“Cory Lidle's doomed plane didn't just crash into anybody's apartment.
It exploded into the empty bedroom of Kathleen Caronna, the Manhattan woman who was critically injured when a balloon knocked part of a lamppost onto her head during the 1997 Thanksgiving Day Parade.”


Some people do have all the bad luck and if it weren’t for bad luck they’d have no luck at all.

But what the freak is up with this woman. A six story balloon goes untetethered and drops a lamppost on her head then nine years later a Yankees pitcher flies a plane into her Upper East Side apartment purchased with a Macy’s Parade payout settlement.She can thank her lucky stars she wasn't home. That was fortunate.

Sometimes bad luck can bring worse luck but if it doesn’t we call that good luck. Like the girl who went through a red light and sent me into a roll over accident which was my bad luck and I was hurt with some ugly injuries which was more bad luck but all my parts and internal organs stayed together which was good luck which is why I ain’t complaining about it.

Sports analysts talk about making your own luck through preparation but I remember during a Florida Hurricane a tree fell on a car and killed a boy whose first name was Bowden named after his grandfather Florida State football Coach Bobby Bowden. Coach Bowden’s life has been mostly fortunate and filled with good luck but he'd trade every minute to erase that one moment of bad luck.

I believe bad luck is an unrelenting part of life which is why when things are going good we should be happy because the time is coming when all luck changes from good to bad then back to good and ultimately we die and if there's a heaven well that will be the ultimate good luck and if not well ain't that a bitch.
