What a sad, terrible story for your entire family to endure. It's OK to feel nothing about a celebrity death or suicide; I don't think there is one way to react to news like this and seeing as you've had personal experience with suicide, your feelings seem pretty valid to me. I'm really sorry about your family.

Though it wouldn't have worked in this instance, I miss the Banhammer.

I'm not sure why I typed "natural". I guess I meant to say that she was mostly known as a blonde.

*eyes rolling*

Oh, chill out.

I'm pretty sure it was a joke.

*Chills*

Not so much in Austin anymore, unfortunately.

$100k would go a long way in San Antonio; besides, I assume that she already lives there and would like to stay.

Oh, sorry! Misunderstood, obviously.

Sorry; I just chose your comment as the one to which I would reply but I knew what you were getting at. I guess that could be confusing. :-)

Wait a minute. Ghetto? The rest of civilization?

That was the BEST show. Addicting!

I thought she was saying that the cop needed to be "20 feet" away from her before she would leave.

I believe that's Sharon Tate, one of the victims. She was a natural blonde and looks a bit different here.

Re-read the court transcripts of how the victims were murdered. There isn't a time frame after which a heinous crime suddenly becomes palatable.

I know it broke your heart and probably still does but always remember that you gave her something-however small-that she cherished until the end. Many people can't say that. Good for you.

Yeah, I thought both of her parents were UT-Austin alums. That school will chew you up and spit you out if you can't hack it, though, and they clearly didn't think she could. I'm glad they stood up to her.

AND her grades weren't that great in high school and her SAT scores were well below the UT average. She needs to face it: she just didn't impress the UT admissions office.

What about Chaz/Chastity Bono, who by all accounts, had two supportive and loving parents?
