Body pulled out of the River

2/2/2007

From our offices, of the administration building at Potawatomi Casino, today we watched rescue folks pull a dead person out of the river.  And for some reason this doesn't even phase me anymore.  How sad is that.  There was a dead person in the river we watched the whole thing and most people joked about it.

THAT PERSON WAS DEAD!  THEY WERE IN THE RIVER!  That being an okay thing to witness is not okay.  This world is sick.

On top of that another body was pulled on 01/27 - not even 1 week ago!

Here's the story about the guy found on the 27th.
MILWAUKEE -- Police pulled the body of a missing Iowa man from the Milwaukee River this afternoon.This afternoon, police identified the man as 26-year-old Max Walker of Davenport, Iowa.Police said Max was last seen around 1:30 a.m. Tuesday at Buckhead Saloon on Old World Third Street...

"He was in town along with another friend from Davenpot, Iowa, and the friend called the police yesterday (Wednesday) about noon to report that he had not come back to the hotel room," Milwaukee Police Public Relations Manager Anne Schwartz said.Walker was an honor student at St. Ambrose University in Iowa.He' hadalso served in the Army Reserve, driving a truck in convoy duty in Iraq.

I'm going to run now and say a prayer for both of them.
