plane wrecks and johnny carson

Maryellen just told me that Johnny Carson died today. To me, that is his second death.

I think I was around 4 years old, it was one of those dreams that was too true to be imaginary. Johnny Carson had died in a plane crash. So I go on for most of my life thinking that Johnny Carson was dead. I think I was in high school and someone had menitoned Johnny Carson, in which I informed them that Johnny was dead. I was corrected, and have realized that most of my life was led in fallacy.

It's true though. Johnny has left me once again. This time to emphysema.
