Bad things in 3s?

One of my mom's friends - a particularly spiritual woman who enjoys Paganism, being psychic, mysticism, and other non-traditional perspectives on life - claims that bad things happen in sets of three.

So if Farrah Fawcett is one and Michael Jackson is two, who's unlucky number three?

Both those guys were SO young and so iconic to so many, it's terrifying. How could both be lost on the same day?

It's terrifying to think that some day I'll be able to say that I was alive when Michael Jackson was, when he toured around... the same way some people talk about Elvis.

Well, if we listen to my FB friends, number 3 was Ed Mc-whatever. But, another set of friends is thinking maybe Patrick Swazey (sp?) is next.

All I've been thinking is how sad that Farrah was totally eclipsed by Jackson...even though I'm totally more a Jackson fan.
