MILWAUKEE — A high school dropout who became a billionaire roofing company executive and one of the nation's richest people died Friday after falling through his garage roof
Oh beautiful. It wasn't even some complex high rise or steep church. His own damn garage.

The news article is wrong.
He actually survived the fall, married his high school sweetheart, and they lived happily ever rafter.

Man dressed as breathalyser arrested for drink-driving (http://www.metro.co.uk/weird/article.html?Man_dressed_as_breathalyser_arrested_ for_drink-driving&in_article_id=761714&in_page_id=2)

Miller's brethalyser costume featured a dial with three levels of drunkenness: Boring, Life of the Party, and Sotally Tober.
When confronted, Miller stuffed chewing gum into his mouth, and insisted he hadn't been drinking.
Unfortunately, for the fake breathalyser, a real blood alcohol test showed he had a level of .158, almost twice the legal limit. He was also found to have multiple IDs on him.

The guys that wrote the song. "I can't live (if living is without you)"
(Badfinger) Both hung themselves.
The lady that wrote the song "Keep The Home Fires Burning", died in a fire at her home.
