80's Actor Corey Haim dies at 38

Corey Haim is dead. That is not a way to wake up late on a Wednesday, let me tell you. But it's a sad reality this morning when Corey Haim died outside L.A. early this morning. Though details are sketchy right now, what is clear is Haim had a long and public battle with addiction that killed his career.
  Haim became famous from roles like, Lucas and The Lost Boys and many predicted great things for the young star but in recent years had become somewhat of a joke in Hollywood along with his super frenemy Corey Feldmen. The two who met on the set of Lost Boys and had a rocky friendship through the years even starring in a reality TV show The Two Coreys in 2008.

  We have all made jokes about the Coreys and about washed up teen actors turned druggie has been. We find humor in it so we don't have to deal with how tragic it is when talented people get sucked into a hole that robs them of their abilities and sadly sometimes their lives. Out thoughts and prayers should go out to Haims family and hope that his death somehow inspires others to seek help in fighting their addiction. If you are someone you love is fighting addiction do not wait 'till it's too late. http://www.addict-help.com/

DJ Am's death ruled accidental

Doctors have ruled DJ Am's death an accidental overdose. I am in no way a medical expert but I find it hard to believe that someone accidentally takes Cocaine, OxyContin, Hydrocodone or Vicodin, Xanax, Ativan, Klonopin, Benadryl, and Levamisole. Nine different types of drugs all at one time.

DJ Am who's real name is Adam Goldstein was found dead in his NYC apartment a month ago. Drugs were in the apartment and Goldstein had a history of drug problems.

Goodbye Henry Gibson

My brother and I were just watching "The Burbs" the other day so this hit me. Henry Gibson past away this week after a brief fight with cancer at age 73. Gibson was a great actor who had been preforming since 1963. Gibson is survived by his 3 children.

Patrick Swayze passes

Patrick Swayze passed away today at age 57 after an intense battle with pancreatic cancer. Died in LA surround by family. Swayze was known most for his role in Dirty Dancing. He also had a small part in the cult classic Donnie Darko. He will be truly missed.

Billy Mayes was on Cocaine

Not so surprised. No one is that hyper naturally. Still sad though.
