    This is my first celeb death that is surreal and weird and just generally feels wrong like this person should always exist in the background. I really hope that his story brings some lessons and guidance for others. And i hope that those who knew and loved Matthew find a soothing peace in the coming days and months.

      Really? I’m completely unsurprised he drowned in a hot tub. I figured that or overdose. He’s been a mess for a while.

      Ring-a-ding-ding, baby, what a way to go.

          Have you read kitchen confidential yet? I had bought the book years before he passed but never got around to read it. And then he died and I couldn’t bring myself to read it, until earlier this year. I am so absolutely glad I have that book, it’s like hanging out with him.

        They were sad and deep losses to the industry. I still can’t bring myself to watch a a Robin Williams film.

        But for whatever reason none of them had given me this sort of what feeling. That’s all.
