Goodbye Heath Ledger

January 22nd 2008 22:25
Sadly, 28 years old Heath Ledger was found dead in his Manhattan apartment this afternoon by his housekeeper. Pills were supposedly found scattered in an area in close proximity with his body on his bed. His talent is going to be missed. He was in full cardiac arrest when help arrived. Naturally, they suspect he committed suicide; my question is, Why? Accidental OD, maybe. What are your thoughts?

Update: The autopsy conducted today, didn't produce any obvious results. And may take about a week to be conclusively resolved. What was painfully sad for me was the reaction of his family. His fathers remarks were touching. I feel that his family, Australia and the creative world have all lost a very bright star.

Fighting the war in Iraq would be safer for Chinese men than working in the coal mines of China, if what I read in a Yahoo news article this morning is accurate. Reading this brief while quaffing the amber elixir of life, my morning face slapping, butt kicking cup of java, is for me the ritual that starts off a perfect morning.

Apparently 3,800 hundred Chinese men were killed mining in 2007 according to Xinhua News Agency whereas the attrition rate for US soldiers is around that same amount (3921) after four years of warfare. You just know these Chinese fellas would like the odds in Iraq better
