Wow, shocked and dismayed to hear it.  :(
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Dismay, sure, but shock?


RIP.

A long time ago when I was younger I had an apartment downtown Toronto-- really east-end, Greektown.

Anyways, I was freelancing at the time, which mostly meant staying in the apartment waiting for the phone to ring.

Meanwhile, downstairs from me lived a woman about my age.

For about a week, all day, every day, she played Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You from the Bodyguard soundtrack. I could hear it through the floorboards and heating grates. It grated on me. It drove me batty. I took to drink, rarely slept, lost weight, became insane. I was a conservative until then.

So really, when I think of Whitney I think back to that sad, sad week in 1993.

That woman who lived below me, disappeared after that week, and has never been seen since.  :ph34r:

Sure - I mean she'd already took the step of finally getting rid of toxic Bobby.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Wow.

Just one of those celebrity horror stories that you figured, yeah, she's all fucked up and just a big joke.  But you wouldn't expect a death out of it.

I blame Bobby.

It was his prerogative. That's what happens when a good church girl gets mixed up with ghetto life.

Yeah, it's not like no celebrity has even gone down this path before.

Couldn't stand her music, but always kinda felt sorry for her effed up life.

What I meant was, I expected to be annoyed with her silly bullshit for a lot more years.
