In an accident in the way out West Texas mountains, Jeff Bezos, Amazon founder, crashed as a passenger in a helicopter, MyWestTexas.com

He apparently had only minor injuries, which is fortunate. He was treated and released at the local hospital, and hopefully is having a speedy recovery. His treatment is one of my corollary ER horrors, treatment of The Famous in the ER. It is never good, because either they, and certainly their loser hanger-on entourage, insist on being painful and involved, demanding things nobody else gets. I was only peripherally involved with the treatment of an “A List” actress, and it turned our ER into a zoo.

I’m glad nobody was badly injured, and I hope they were nice to their ER folks.
