This will always be a top 10 convenience store disaster for me.

I just looked up Wong's wiki page. Two things stuck out that were interesting:

"Victor Wong studied political science and journalism at the University of California, Berkeley and Theology at the University of Chicago under Paul Tillich, Reinhold Niebuhr and Martin Buber. When he returned to San Francisco, Wong resumed his studies at the San Francisco Art Institute under Mark Rothko.[1]"

Then, he seemingly died from the stress of not knowing if his sons were killed in the 9/11 attacks:

"On September 11, 2001 Wong and his wife Rose spent the day trying to get news of Wong's sons, who lived in New York City. (They were unharmed.) After Rose went to sleep, Wong stayed up to continue following the news; he died of a heart attack at some point during the morning of September 12.[5] Wong was 74 years old."

That is awful.
