There's also an article about the guru the Beatles had, as he has just died at 91.

Don't know if you'd technically say he was a celebrity, even though he knew four of them, but if it's the guy I think he is, I remember seeing an old book he and John Lennon once wrote together.

I see Mr. Ledger OD-ed on prescription meds. A celebrity overdosing on drugs? I've never heard of that happening before...

[Big-Will]

I'm not surprised the coroner concluded what he did, seeing as I thought he OD'd when I first heard about his death.

Kieth Ledger killed himself? But that's impossible! If the most perfect man to ever walk the earth (as Hollywood wanted him to change His Holy Name to) thought His life unworth living, what chance do the rest of us lowly mortals stand? THINK ABOOT IT Men!

Aw. Well, I'll have to pay tribute by driving down to the sunny south-side of Dallas and getting a Paris-burger or somesuch.

Well, here's another celebrity death link:

Blind Guitarist Jeff Healey Dies at 41

How sad. It happened last night too. Rest in peace.

I doubt any of you guys have heard of her, but Lydia Shum Din-Ha (a.k.a. Fei Fei, literally fat sister, in an affectionate way) died on February 19th. She was a really famous Chinese actor, really popular on Canadian-Chinese TV and in Hong Kong.

I watched the memorial service... What a pity; I loved watching her in the Chinese celebrity talk shows and soap operas and stuff...

Rest in Peace.

And now, A joke in really bad taste about the death of Heath Ledger:

Do you know how Heath Ledger, the guy from Brokeback Mountain, died? He got rear-ended!

I know. I should have waited 22.3 years till I said that, but my aunt keeps saying it.
