What surprises me is that, given how she lived and the manner of her death, there were very small children putting flowers outside her home? These children were very young, 3 or 4, they have no concept of death or who the drugged addled horse was, but the parents are parading them in front of television cameras to perform a pointless act. Kind of weird and slightly creepy.

Yes Norway was far worse, but was also already posted and discussed (Amy as well, but that post I missed)

The comment on Norway wasn't in any way directed at your good self but at the British media in general who seem to be giving an OCD amount of time to one person who it seems likely died by their own handa and entirely expectedly if the truth be known. I'm sure the family of Amy Winehouse will be terribly saddened but this generally reported 'outpouring of grief' is sickeningly strange.

And that club is only the famous ones there are many not so famous also. Example of one I knew personally, Candy Givens of Zephyr died in a jacuzzi as a result of alcohol and Quaaludes.
I may be schizophrenic, but at least I have each other.

Who cares? the passing of another weak-willed drug addict, even one with a modicum of talent, is not worth thinking about.

Apparently there are people leaving cigarettes and alcohol outside her house as a shrine. Now that is weird. And stupid.
Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

Now that is weird. And stupid.Absolutely. They should be leaving hard drugs. ;)

They are now reporting she went on a 36 hour binge the day before her death. That is impressive, fitting 36 hours into the one day.

Maybe she was a time lord? Did anyone see a blue telephone booth near her house?

Saturday, July 21, 2046 Although as it seems to use smoking and BMI as the key factors in making changes I would say it is largely bollox.

the 27 club sounds silly though. What about all the musicians that died at 28, 29, 30, etc... Interesting subject none the less.
