I’m ashamed to say, this might have been the greatest news story ever. The murder of an attractive cheating blond, money, a boat chase (actually an escape), removal of evidence and a suicide! What more can you ask for? The only way this can get better is if he was The Leroy Jenkins and if he faked his suicide in a 24esque evil plan to destroy the U.S.

There I said it. Now someone needs to make a movie about it.

[The murder](http://www.tmz.com/2009/08/18/reality-star-on-the-run-in-model-murder/) that has been on the radio for the last week or so.

I found it very entertaining.

That is all.
