 Death

On March 10, 2010 KABC-TV, KTLA-TV and TMZ reported that Corey Haim was taken to St. Joseph's Hospital in Burbank, and was pronounced dead at 3:30 a.m. (PST). Corey Haim was a complete douchebag. ^<19>

I just heard on tv that Corey Haim has died from an accidental drug overdose. He was 38.

The only Pat Travers I know plays a very different kind of music and Ms. Travers might not be considered a celebrity in the current age, but there is something ineffably sad in her story.

He sure was a household name... partly because he was a likeable guy, mostly because he never got the forecast right. Don's name was synonymous with rained out picnics.

Yesterday, because of some turmoil, I forgot to mention the passing of Former WBZ meteorologist and New England weather legend Don Kent who died March 2, 2010. Anybody old enough would remember him as one of the truly nice and likable TV personalities. Seems that the older we get we see more of the really nice and classy people pass.

We'll miss you Don.

There's a RIP thread for him too. I'm really sad about this. I can't imagine the Cornelia Marie without him and next season is going to be quite emotional.

Johnson & Johnson Heiress Casey Johnson Found Dead

By Jeran Wittenstein and Anthony Palazzo

Jan. 5 (Bloomberg) — Casey Johnson, daughter of New York Jets Chairman Robert “Woody” Johnson and an heir to the Johnson & Johnson fortune, has died. She was 30.

Los Angeles Police Department officers arrived on the scene in Hollywood at about 11:51 a.m. local time yesterday, where fire department personnel pronounced Johnson dead, LAPD officer Sara Faden said in a telephone interview.

A preliminary investigation shows she died of natural causes, with no sign of foul play, Faden said. The next step will be an investigation by the coroner that includes toxicology tests, she said. Casey Johnson was the companion of actress Tila Tequila.

“The Johnson family is mourning its tragic loss, and asks for privacy during this very difficult time,” Jesse Derris, a family spokesman, said in an e-mailed statement.

Her father bought the National Football League’s Jets in 2000 for $635 million. The team, which is one of 12 NFL clubs in the playoffs, joined the New York Giants in building a new $1.6 billion stadium opening this year in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

In 2006, she told Vanity Fair magazine that “the stupidest mistake of my life” was her decision to reject Paris Hilton’s invitation to co-star with her in “A Simple Life.” Hilton instead chose Nicole Richie to join her in the reality television show about socialites living the lives of regular people.

Johnson & Johnson:

Johnson & Johnson was founded in 1886 by Robert Wood Johnson, Casey Johnson’s great-great-grandfather; James Wood Johnson; and Edward Mead Johnson. The New Brunswick, New Jersey- based company initially sold First Aid kits, sanitary napkins, baby powder, Band-Aids, and sterile sutures.

Johnson & Johnson generated revenue of $63.7 billion in 2008, and had net income of $12.9 billion. It is the world’s largest health-products company and makes Tylenol, Listerine mouthwash, the anti-inflammatory drug Remicaid, the antipsychotic Risperdal, artificial knees, and weight-loss devices.

Woody Johnson is on the board of Johnson & Johnson.

Poor girl! Another casualty of Hollywood:

D.E.P.

Brittany was one of those actresses you really liked watching fame happen to.
She 'made' the chracter of LuAnne Platter (KOTH) and I LOVED her role in SIN CITY. Fare Thee Well Brittany... The Manger Babies are silent.

MSNBC just posted Britney Murphy's death and People (who is a rag, but usually rather reliable on its gossip) brought the post back. Sadly, I think its true.  There is now source material besides TMZ.
