An icon is gone - yumekochan - 06-25-2009
Farrah Fawcett passed away 25 minutes ago from cancer. I shall bow my head and be thankful that she is free from pain now.

Agreed. Requiescat in pacem, Farrah.
Especially since I had a beach towel when I was a kid with her face plastered on it when she was in Logan's Run...

I had THE famous poster of her when I was in Junior High. Possibly the first "celebrity crush" I ever had. I can't think of words foul enough to
express my outrage at the universe. Just thinking of the pain she must've suffered. Beyond all suffering now, though.

Wow, that was classy. Condolences to both their families and friends.

Peggy and I were just talking of this a few minutes ago. (She's suddenly feeling an intense sensation of age and mortality, I might note.) In a way, this
is the death of our young adulthoods -- Farrah was the 70s, and Jackson was the 80s, symbolically...

Michael's death... I think he may have brought it on himself. Some of those cosmetic procedures he underwent, the skin lightening in particular, are
extremely bad for your health.
- Bob Schroeck - 06-26-2009
Word on CBS radio here this morning was that overuse of prescription drugs might have contributed -- he had a Demerol shot right before collapsing, reportedly
-- but it won't be known for sure until the toxicology reports come back in a few weeks.
