Ed Bradley Dead at 65 from Leukemia


Beloved 60 Minutes news correspondent Ed Bradley is dead due to complications suffered from leukemia and I can barely believe it.


"Oh no!" I just gasped from reading the news. Ed Bradley was only 65, and I didn't even know he was sick.
Indeed, in this picture he does appear thinner than in previous years. But it still shows that trademark earring that I'm so glad Mr. Bradley wore.

He was a maverick in that respect, trumping other "older" folks working in respected industries and running with a trend begun by younger guys.

Ed Bradley was a kind, smart, and extra-intelligent and compassionate interviewer. He will be missed by millions. May God keep and rest his precious soul. Read more about Ed Bradley's death here...

They announced about the Leukemia when he stepped down. He was really a great man. I will sorely miss him...I grew up on him!
I watched all the tributes on TV the day of his death. They must have been expecting it because these shows were too well produced not to have been planned in advance. The most interesting thing I heard that day was how Ed Bradley was the first black man to enter the homes of millions and millions of white men accross the U.S. via their TVs. He was accepted by one and all.

Lastly, did you see Aaron Nevil sing a song in his old buddy's honor that night? Unbelievable!

I'll sure miss Ed. Now who are they going to get to interview the cool people? Hey, why not you?

Since I'm fascinated with how much money bloggers and webmasters are making nowadays, I've created a similar list -- a random sampling of people making money on the net.

Mooney will you please publish that list now?! (Yes, I fancy Dr. Seuss' iambic pentameter.) My WebMaster blest me with a viral post called "Paula's List of Blogger Salaries," and the response was so wonderful, here lies an update. It's bigger and better than ever before with more pics, and double the amount of bloggers, webmasters, domainers, affiliate marketers (or a smidgen of some or all of those titles) and their reported incomes.

While some invoke their choice not to post their online income nor discuss it at all, I've always been of the Suze Orman mindset ever since I read her first book. Suze encourages people to talk ab

UPDATE: PLEASE CLICK THIS LINK TO DIGG THIS STORY AND TELL DIGG TO PLAY FAIR... by Paula Neal Mooney Many of us know the power of Digg.com, dreamed up by Kevin Rose, who touted it as a "user driven" site that says it allows the general public to determine the stories they want to see make it to the front page by voting for interesting articles they find across the web. The more votes the public gives an article, the better chance it should have to make it to the front page. Theoretically... The power of Digg's front page Digg.com -- according to Alexa -- is now more popular than The New York Times. Getting one of your articles or blog posts to the front page of Digg.com will get your website seen by plenty of eyes. John Chow experienced a one-day traffic record of 55,856 page views when one of his posts hit the front page of Digg.
