I put great doubt in that. The original version I saw was "I warned him"...

Have any polytubbies been trying to make a breakthrough on acting scene lately? Two dead actors could be coincidence, but if there will be third soon someone is clearly paving the way to the stars

I plead the fifth...though I do have an audition this weekend for Scorsese's "Ashecliffe".

Of course, I'd have to kill A LOT of people to get any higher than Nazi Soldier #14.

**Julian Delphiki** · January 23, 2008, 15:18

And that's good practice for role of Nazi Soldier #4!

Actor Heath Ledger found dead

How very strange to see this all over the news. I swear I've never heard of the guy before in my life - and now this. It's all too late now. I'll never get to know him.

Initial autopsy results are reported as "inconclusive." Full toxicology in roughly 10 days...

I'm willing to bet it's something as "boring" as an undiagnosed heart condition. A friend of mine died in his sleep at age 18 -- an incredibly fit guy too. He had an undiagnosed heart murmur, his heart just stopped.

I'm going with accidental overdose of something.

I dislike celebrity hysteria.

**Wezil** · January 23, 2008, 19:12

I dislike hysteric celebs even more.

**Alinestra Covelia** · January 23, 2008, 23:23

What's wrong with celebrities' uteruses?

The demons with Ennis - Good As You:: Gay and Lesbian Activism With a Sense of Humor

http://www.goodasyou.org/good_as_you/2008/01/the-demons-with.html

The demons with Ennis: Good As You: Gay and Lesbian Activism With a Sense of Humor. News. Politics. Commentary. Irreverence.

1.) Wondering if ol' Phil realizes the 1st Amendment doesn't protect him IN AUSTRALIA?

2.) Wondering further if ol' Phil realizes Ozzies have far less scruples than Americans when it comes to buttering up protesters?

1) Nope.

2) Hard to say. Possible the whole lot of them rounded up as soon as they appeared in front of the church and promptly deported for being "the kind of people we don't want here".

btw, the term "buttering up" here is something you do to get someone to do something for you, eg - getting sex, a favour, borrowing money etc.

How insane are relegious fanatics gonna get? TO believe that some self rightous group would protest a funeral of an actor that portrayed a character in a movie is utterly insane. What are they going to do after they have just insulted a deads mans right to a proper buriel? Go to church and praise the lord? What a bunch of hypocrites

The WBC isn't a religious group so much as it is Fred Phelps's ongoing attempt to convince himself that he isn't gay. And get attention while he's at it. The first objective is doomed to failure, since no matter how hard he tries it'll only make it that much more obvious that he's hiding from himself. The second requires him to do more and more outrageous stunts to keep getting our attention. If this doesn't work, expect them to rally wherever there's a thunderstorm so they can boo and hiss when the rainbow appears afterwards.
