He can't complain no more, I guess.

Except that River did hard drugs all the time. Heath's was probably accidental and was only sleeping pills.
So not so much.

Didn't really care for most of his movies, but anyone who flips off the paparazzi is alright by me. So I am actually sad about him dying.

didn't mean it in that respect. more like a very talented actor of his time taken very early, i remember the way everyone reacted when river died (especially me whenthe news accidentally said that keanu was dead)

Yeah, not nice. When I posted the link, it was a normal photo of him smiling next to the article.

At one point they had a gallery of about a dozen photos of the coroners taking the body away.

And when they talked about his film career the very first films they mentioned in several articles were Monster's Ball and Candy. Why those two? No reason in particular ... oh, except they were the roles where he played a suicide and a heroin addict.

I'm sure they were just regurgitating the stuff that they got from other sources but still, what the hell The Age??!?

I've not seen any news outlet not sensationalising it. There's a bunch where they're saying he had OH MY GOD SIX KINDS OF PRESECRIPTION MEDS IN HIS APARTMENT!!! But they conveniently don't mention that one of them was a prescription anti-histamine... And they've no idea how recent some of them are, some might have been antibiotics for his pneumonia, etc.
Bleh. Body's not even cold yet.

To be fair to the masseuse chick, Mary-Kate was apparently dating Heath. So it's only slightly retarded calling her before 911.
Though they're now saying she also rang someone else before ringing 911.

No, wait, I just read another report where she rang Mary-Kate three times before calling 911? Sigh.
Every chance he was dead either way but damn.

The part I find dumb is that she is aparently trained in first aid so rather than starting CPR she called M-K O three times, aparently for a total of 9 minutes. At what point do you see someone not breathing and think 'no I won't start that life saving procedure I know, instead I will call a twiglet who can't do anything'

I don't get how people's thought processes work sometimes. I reaslie shock and fear would have played a part but really

according to a "source" in the paper, its common for celebrity stylists, massuses, chefs etc, to call someone else first if something happens before calling for help. apprently its to find out what to do or hide so it doesn't become too much of a scandal.

can't remember where i read it but that stuck with me during the week
