Which deceased actor or actress do you miss the most?
Oi, been thinking about two a lot lately: Heath Ledger and Phil Hartman. Both for very different reasons, both taken from this world by tragedy.
If I HAD to choose one it'd probably be Ledger the most, but only because he was the youngest.

His death still hits me hard because I honestly think he OD'd because he was having nightmares about being The Joker. I think it was an accident and he had been steadily taking more and more sleeping aids to fight the insomnia and dreams. This guy went from family films like 10 Things I Hate About You and A freaking Knight's Tale to hardcore stuff like Brokeback Mountain and The Dark Knight. He did great in all of them but I don't think he was mentally built for those last two roles. I think he got his female co-worker pregnant BECAUSE he was feeling the pressure of playing a gay role and wanted to reassert his masculinity, and it's possible the backlash from that role followed him into the DK Joker role.
*shrug* all of this is pure speculation of course, but give me a better theory. He never had a history of drug abuse or erratic behavior to my knowledge....and these things don't usually happen over night or for no reason......

random politcal rant ▼
prompt: facebook video post of girl ranting for 6 minutes
ion don't know why everyone made at Obama for not "doing more" more for blacks, more for the poor, just more
look, I never expected him to do anything but look pretty and sound intelligent
we ALL know presidents are just shiny figureheads!
bill clinton/jimmycarter both great men, BUT if you switch clinton with obama, meaning, obama's first term was in (clinton yers) and clinton's FIRST term started in 2008 our view of BOTH men would be VASTLY different
it's not the president it's the time, clinton got lucky, it was great time to be president then
don't get me wrong both men have their own personality credits but again, the figure h ead needs to be shiny
bush, as much as I can't stand him, had the right of it, in retrospect he MAY have been the smartest pres in decades....
why? b/c he got it, he saw it w/ his dad he KNEW the presidence was a cush job b/c all he had to do was be the mouth piece
he KNEW that no matter what he said it didn't matter b/c the 1% was/is gonna do what it wants ANYWAY
so you know what happened, bush sr. said "georgie" you're gonna be president aren't you happy? it'll be like an 8 year vacation!
and georgie said "yep, it sure will daddy thanks for that!"
why do you think bush was always SMILING?! and see, THAT'S why I dont like him
George bush didn't favor WHITE ppl he favored RICH people b/c 1% are rich and have all the control
it just so happens (by no coincedence) a majority of RICH 1% are WHITE so it LOOKS like republicans 'favor' them when in reality the RICH black folks are JUST as fat and happy as the rich white
back to why i can't stand Bush:
You ever known someone with tenure or undeserved job secruity?! lets call them Rick. Rick has a cush 6 figure job and his boss can't AFFORD to fire him, so what does Rick do? nothing more than what he HAS to do, he has no reason or INCENTIVE to go above and beyond for his company and this PISSES his boss off to the umpteenth degree! b/c his hands are tied.
if you haven't caught on yet, Bush was Rick, and I, you, WE are his BOSSES! Bush knew he was gonna be president for 8 yrs b/c he had no problem rolling over and letting the CEOs and cheney's of the world run things

note: I dont'consider myself to be a political afficianado, I hate politics, but I don't sit w/ my head int he sand either, u'd have to bve a fool not to have SOME opinion on the state of the nation....ergo, if you see the flaws in my logic, congats, I'm sure there are many, I didn't research b4 writing this, I'm just saying what I think after having been a member of this world for 27.5 years.....peace and blessings |
