In a tragic time such this, it's easy to forget who the real victims are. Specifically, actor Alec Baldwin, shown here on Wednesday near the Manhattan accident scene where Cory Lidle's small plane crashed into a high-rise building. Baldwin is giving a New York City police officer the Glengarry Glen Ross treatment for not letting him pass the barricade to get, well, wherever Alec Baldwin goes these days.

We enjoyed both Gawker and Defamer's takes on this.

And to Alarming News, for this amusing yet wise postscript: "At least Sean Penn had a life raft."
