This seems to be the summer of death.
First it was Farrah and Michael.
Then Billy “Mr. Sham-WOW” Mays.
Followed shortly thereafter by Walter Cronkite.
And now we have…Alexis Cohen.
Who? You ask. Let this video remind you.

According to the news, she was struck by a car as she attempted to cross a street in New Jersey. Police are treating her death as a homicide but have very few leads. While I still laugh at her profanity-laced rant, my heart goes out to her mother and her family.
Alexis Cohen was a genuine original. I don’t think anyone else could be quite like her.
