That is absolutely awful. At least her mother did not have to suffer anymore. She must had been completely grief stricken.

I feel sorry for Billie Lourd, Carrie's daughter and Debbie's granddaughter.

I remember when a time in the 1970's when we had freezing rain (Northern Ontario, Canada); the school bus could only go to a certain point on the route and had to stop.
Past that point, there was steep hills and sharp curves.
The schools called parents to get their children at the new stopping point; it was less than 1/4 from my home, so not a big deal to me.
A family about a mile up the road sent their oldest son on ice skates; he picked up his siblings one a time, took them home, turned around to get the next one.
Other families sent snowmobiles to get kids; the snowmobiles continued until all kids had were home; they picked up whoever needed a ride.
The furthest distance from the stop to home for the kids was 5 miles.
The buses were able to pull into my Aunt's general store (across from the pick up point) and make a U-turn in the driveway to return to the bus depot.
I don't miss that weather...

No worries. Nowadays someone reports a snowflake, and all schools cancel their bus routes.

I grew up in the mid-south US where ice storms seem to happen every few years. After one in the early '70s my Dad attached a pair of blades to the bottom of an old pair of dress shoes and we learned to ice skate in the streets...I remember having to stop when my ankles started bleeding!

When young they learn to eat their beer with an ice pick - or lacking an ice pick, the pick on their skates.

I have a friend (yes, really) who has always wanted to be a stand up comedian. I have no idea why - he is not the slightest bit funny. However, he did send me some good jokes. Here are a few...
"I can stop a speeding bullet.
Once."
"When I heard they had a cure for dyslexia, it was like music to my ass"
"There's a new TV show on tonight about Origami.
It's paper view".
"The guy who fell into an upholstery machine is now fully recovered"
I'll get his coat...
Actually, I have plenty more where that came from. $50 for me not post them...

Depends on how closely it's fired from, and which part of the body it hits.

I'm sure you can stop more than one speeding bullet... 
|
|
|
|
|
I am sure that he will soon have to!
... such stuff as dreams are made on

With jokes like that, I'm sure he'll have a choice of speeding bullets to choose from.

This is a very old joke. It is in more than one joke book and has been used by Jeff Dunham as far back as 2003.

I did kinda pre-warn that these were bad jokes and I have not heard that one before until he assaulted me with it. I'm just paying the joy forward...

You have slightly missed the point

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Reminds me of our old friend wizzardz (not sure what his username was exactly).
He posted one of his shows on YouTube once.
"Hi guys, good to be here.
I'm actually quite nervous, but what's the worst that could happen, right?
...
I could f***ing die man." 
Unfortunately, wizzardz disappeared into thin air (and resurfaced once or twice before disappearing yet again).
