okay, so as to try and head off the drama, I'm gonna start a new thread about all the other celebrities that are "leaving the spotlight for good."
We have Farrah Fawcett-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farrah_Fawcett best known for being smoking hot and for her role as one of charlies angels.
We have Ed McMahon-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_mcmahon best known for the phrase "heeere's Johnny"
we Have Billy Mays-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_mcmahon best known for selling things in a highly entertaining fashion,
and we have Karl Malden-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Malden best known for saying "Dont leave home without it" as well as many tv and movie roles.
There may be more, these are just the ones I know about.
odd how they keep dropping off, though, aint it?

Malden died too? I used to know him as the only Serbian who made it big in Hollywood.

At this rate there aren't going to be any celebrities left here soon.

Ed McMahon was so talented that he maintained two separate identities, and Dracomax was the only person to ever figure it out.

I was in this organic store today off wilshire in LA, and they had two celebrity photos on the wall who'd come in and eaten there. one of them was Billy Mays and he had a top hat and tuxedo on. It was brilliant.

I never heard of any of these people apart from Farah Fawcett because I watched Jonny Bravo cartoons.

I've heard of Farrah Fawcet in many places. I've watched a few films with her (like the one where she's attacked by some maniac but she beats him up and holds him tied in a fireplace pondering what to do with him) and the sitcom where she starred with Ryan O'Neil trying to cash in on their tabloid publicity... Oddly enough, "Charlie's Angels" is not among first things I've heard her for, no surprise since actual series was never played here.

David Carradine died a few weeks back too (Bill from Kill Bill). He had a rather disturbing death.
