Rumour is she died of an aneurysm.

Hard to believe, I know, but some folks in show business don't actually die from drugs, so it may possibly be true.

Yes, 'sudden' death does happen amongst the healthy young, but typically it's suicide, physical/car accidents and drug issues that are big killers.

I'm guessing older bods, like ourselves are at a significantly greater risk of suddenly dying vs someone in their 20s.

Sadly, it's true.

hotels are boring.  And I'm too broke and not far enough away from home to call for prostitutes.

Hey Ed, is Campus Cuties still in operation in Columbus?  Now that was a fun evening.   God bless regional costs of living.

No idea. I never did the prostitutes. Ick.

They're not prostitutes as much as they are OSU students in off-semester work study programs.

I never hung around Columbus that much when I was younger. It was still an hour's drive in a ratty old AMC Pacer.

John Pinette has died.

I commuted 40 miles to the campus every day. That was before they cleaned up the south part of campus and the gays moved off to German Village.

Couple of hours work - I'm clean, the floors are clean and the bike has stayed clean, next few evenings/days, the garden and outside of house.

This is cool (not a pun) - random group of strangers saves a woman's life by giving her literally hours of CPR - in the wilderness, outdoors - after she is nearly frozen to death.

"Her body was very cold. There were no vital signs. The group of six — a Calgary RCMP officer and his wife, a retired paramedic, a carpenter, an office worker and a German student — got to work."

Sounds like a movie of the week cast.

I liked their answer for why they didnt give up when she remained unresponsive "We just kept telling eachother that she was too young to die."

I don't know about that, I think that after about 1.5 hours of CPR the movie would start dragging a little.

By Canadian film standards that's a killer plot.
