I count six as of now: David Carradine Ed McMahan Farrah Fawcett Michael Jackson Billy Mays (he was famous for his pitch work) Fred Travelena (just learned about this one, he was famous for his impressions) Who's next, I know Walter Kronkite isn't doing well. I don't know how much more of this I can take?

We all know this but the constant barrage of bad news relating to people we are aware of and sometimes feel we know can be overwhelming.

We all know this but the constant barrage of bad news relating to people we are aware of and sometimes feel we know can be overwhelming. I remember when Bill Cosby's son was murdered on the 405 freeway near the Getty Center, Bill actually went to talk to the grieving families of the people that were killed, be they murdered or not, the same day. He wanted to let them know that they mattered, too even though the news concentrated on his son's murder. People die everyday but their stories are unsung, they're not celebrities.

LOLcat Freak Posts: 3,988 Group: Members Member #36 Joined: May 10, 2006	Now I'm hearing that Rick Astley was found in a Berlin hotel room dead, but I'm not going to believe it until I get an official word. This report is coming from CNN iReport, which, last year reported Steve Jobs (Apple) died. He didn't of course (he's sick though). I don't know why people think it's fun to spread rumors like that. If it is true, I'm going to be devistated, because Rick Astley was one of my favorite artists of the 80s. I had a crush on him and had a HUGE poster of him on my wall.

Obsessive Saddo Fangirl Posts: 7,839 Group: Members Member #5 Joined: May 7, 2006	Some people may find this a little morbid, but I subscribe to the Celebrity Death Beeper - http://www.celebritydeathbeeper.com It sends you an email every time a celebrity passes away. That's how I heard about David Carradine, Billy May and Fred Travelena. I didn't know who May and Travalena even were, so it covers all types of celebrities, sportsmen/women, artists etc. Call me a Death Hag, but it's how I stay up to date.

Born To Be Wild Posts: 5,458 Group: Members Member #23 Joined: May 8, 2006	Oh yes, too many deaths lately and I am sure that's part of why I'm feeling so down lately. It's constantly on the news and I'm on 'death' overload right now. Death is a part of life, for sure, but it doesn't make it any easier to deal with. Very depressing indeed.

LOLcat Freak Posts: 3,988 Group: Members Member #36 Joined: May 10, 2006	It wasn't true about Rick Astley. When I saw CNN iReport, I knew it probably wasn't true after what happened last year when they falsely reported Steve Jobs death.
