Anorexia induced cardiac arrest??

She was always super strange. If it's not drugs, I'll be shocked. Only two weeks ago she got fired from a movie her for being impossible to work with.

As I said in the Death Pool thread, I liked her. She was so eerily insane in Girl, Interrupted. So sad, so young.

Was she the one with the chicken carcasses?

She certainly didn't look anorexic. If it isn't at least peripherally drug related, I'll be shocked. I really enjoyed her in "Just Married". In fact, it's been the only movie with Ashton Kutcher that I could stand.

Difficult to work with or not, 32 is damn young to bite the big one.

yes.

I guess I saw her in Girl, Interrupted. I can't say I saw anything else she was in. Apparently not a healthy mental place, movietown.

Art Clokey, creator of Gumby, has left the world of the animated at age 88.

"Hey, Elspode", you ask, "what's your favorite Gumby memory?"

Glad you asked. In 1986, my wife, son and I were on a pilgrimage to Disney World. As we were stopped in the line to pay our thruway toll, I looked into my rearview mirror to see that the minipickup behind me had Gumby and his horse pal, Pokey, on his dashboard. Gumby was on all fours, and Pokey had mounted him from behind.

Ah, pop culture memories.

A passing friend of mine died yesterday, Juliet Anderson, better known as Aunt Peg. I linked to the Wikipedia entry but there are plenty of other obits out there.

I'm quite surprised that no one has mentioned the death of homeboy Teddy Pendergrass.

And I don't want to hear any more about that transsexual model he was with the night of his accident in the 80's either. Old news.

I'm a bit bummed out by the death of a lot of non celebs at the moment :(

Kate McGarrigle shuffled off this mortal coil.

Sorry to hear that Monsta. Care to share. Sorry for your loss.

Thanks, but not my loss per se -the earthquake victims

Right on.

Pernell Roberts has passed.

Stevie Ray Vaugha..nearly got sick when heard the news back then. :shred:

Robert B. Parker. The author of the Spencer for Hire series and Jesse Stone. Love all those books and re-read them often.

Jamie Gillis died Friday. A moment of silence, please!

Proof that life is measured in inches.

I remember the night he died also. The local radio station played their entire SRV catalog, in chronological order. At the end, they did it again.

Not a celebrity but a great public servant.A touching article about the life and death of Juanita Goggins. Rest in Peace.

Peter Graves has passed away.

Give him Hamm on 5, hold the Mayo.

If he chooses to accept it. This recording will self-destruct in 5 seconds.

bummer - another good one gone.

Power pop pioneer Alex Chilton.

Daniel Boone was a man
 

Yes a big man. Fess Parker dead at 85.

Daniel Boone, as you'll see from the show lyrics, was like a pioneer-era Chuck Norris.


Daniel Boone was a man,
Yes, a big man!
With an eye like an eagle
And as tall as a mountain was he!

Daniel Boone was a man,
Yes, a big man!
He was brave, he was fearless
And as tough as a mighty oak tree!

From the coonskin cap on the top of ol' Dan
To the heel of his rawhide shoe;
The rippin'est, roarin'est, fightin'est man
The frontier ever knew!

Daniel Boone was a man,
Yes, a big man!
And he fought for America
To make all Americans free!

What a Boone! What a doer!
What a dream come-er-true-er was he!

Daniel Boone was a man!
Yes, a big man!
With a whoop and a holler
he c'd mow down a forest of trees!

Daniel Boone was a man!
Yes, a big man!
If he frowned at a river
In July all the water would freeze!

But a peaceable, pioneer fella was Dan
When he smiled all the ice would thaw!
The singin'est, laughin'est, happiest man
The frontier ever saw!

Daniel Boone was a man!
Yes, a big man!
With a dream of a country that'd
Always forever be free!

What a Boone! What a do-er!
What a dream-come-er-true-er was he!

Only 85? I figured he'd must be much older than that by now.

Yeah, and he was 40 when he started doing Daniel Boone! (that doesn't sound right)

We're gonna miss you Dan'l! :sniff:

Date of Birth: August 16, 1924 - I'm shocked I thought he was much older

I feel like I should really know who this guy is. You were the 3rd person I respect who has commented on his passing.

It's one of those things, where one rather unknown artist wound up influencing an entire generation of other artists. He took the Beatles and the Bryds, especially Roger McGuinn's jangly guitar, to the next logical step. It's a long list of acts that never would have existed without Mr Chilton, including REM, the Bangles, Television, Cheap Trick... and thus a whole nother generation of guitar pop.

You know the theme for That 70s Show? That was Chilton's band's debut single.

My favorite and many others' favorite "September Gurls"

The Letter

Sad to hear about Robert Kulp. Seems like most of the actors from shows i watched when i was a kid are dead.

Greatest American Hero? Why could they never figure out how that suit worked?

because they lost the manual!

June Havoc, immortalized in 'Gypsy,' dies at 97
Mar 29 11:37 AM US/Eastern
By BOB THOMAS

Actress and writer June Havoc, whose childhood in vaudeville as Baby June was immortalized in the musical "Gypsy," has died in Connecticut at age 97.
Havoc was the younger sister of famed stripper Gypsy Rose Lee and died Sunday of natural causes at her home in Stamford. Her death was confirmed Monday by her publicist and friend, Shirley Herz.

While she never reached the fame of her sister, Havoc had a varied, successful theater career that lasted from 1918 into the next century.

With music by Jule Styne, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and a book by Arthur Laurents, "Gypsy" is considered one of the best musicals ever written. The original 1959 production starred Ethel Merman, and it has been revived several times since. It also became a 1962 movie starring Rosalind Russell, with Natalie Wood as the grown-up Gypsy.

omg, I just saw this online before I read your post, Shel. She was so great in that show. Her tirades cracked me up! Classy and contained passion.

RIP, Miss Julia. :(

For Shel. :)

One of my favorites! Thanks Shawnee! :D

Wow, you really are gay, aren't you? Not that I had any doubts, but, well, you couldn't have be any gayer if you wore lavender shirts and swished around while you decorate interiors and make flower arrangements.

Well.... that and taking it up the arse are pretty strong clues I guess...

He has track lighting, but his name isn't Steve.

I only swish with mouth wash after swallowing. And I've NEVER worn lavender!

I don't take it up the ass, I put mine in other's asses. Never really liked getting fucked. To me, it feels the same as shitting. :eek:

And no track lighting!

:D

You're missing out!
But duly noted.

Is it hot in here?

Where's "here"? ;)

Don't know if it falls into the category of "death that bummed me out the most" but a notable fellow..
