It's a fascinating website. It recounts the final moments of movie stars and famous people, their last minutes and hours upon our earthly realm....last meals, last sensationalized glory of themselves, even in death.

His hard work deserves payment.
Watch out for the warnings....you are warned of gruesome pictures...official coroner pics. Check out Ana Nicole - Kurt Cobain - Nicole Brown Simpson...there is a directory of famous names lined up for your curiosity.

Because I have mentioned in the past (please don't read all my old stuff to find it) inside information of Gollywood in my town, it is because of the tragic death of his -a truly famous guy- girlfriend, and not because I'm EMO or some weird stuff...whatever the hell EMO stands for! And even though I have some artsy-fartsy stuff that may make you think otherwise...oh, grow up! A big clue is he is coming to town, Santa Claus is coming to town...to film......a HUGE remake of a HUGE oldie...need more....Klaatu

A Good Canadian Kid - living in the Panyu District of Guangzhou, China
Another Blog I found by happy accident....My mom, hubby, sister and me visited China in 1990 ...long before it was fashionable. Of course, this was also long before "flickr"and "facebook" and well, almost anything WWW related. Our itinerary was similar to his, except we also flew to Xian and saw the Terracotta Warriors. Not certain if they still have the military flying their commerical planes, or whether the planes still leak, or if the runway lights work now....we had a few scary moments.

Blogging Blit
Having had over a year mucking about with Blogging I've become familiar with the types of blogs out there and I've "favorited" some so that I can keep up a good read. This guy, http://cartablanc.blogspot.com/ is brilliant, with a mix of topics eloquently written, and more times than not, too brainy for this simple mind. Even those who leave comments on his blog are literarily composed in confident prose.
An excerpt from his post, Of Blogs and Bloggers, speaks true of other "favorited" blogs I read, and indeed, my own is guilty of such incongruous spew.
What he said:
That bloggers tend not to read the blogs of their fellows might be taken as incuriosity. But we might better call it discernment, because, if truth be told, most blogs aren’t worth reading. For starters, most sites are confusing because they have so much incongruous stuff on them, one doesn’t know where to start. They have photos, drawings, advertisements, and all manner of other irrelevant information which obscures the writings of the blogger. And isn’t writing the raison d’etre of blogging?
As to the writings on blogs, most are bilge because they are badly written and boring, borne of the monumental ignorance, illiteracy, self-absorption, narcissism, and solipsism of the bloggers. “Ranting” is a favourite word among bloggers, who, proudly proclaiming that they “rant”, don’t consider that to read these seemingly interminable “rants” is, for the reader, to suffer a torture only slightly below water-boarding and the other ingenious methods used to extract secrets from the unfortunates incarcerated at Guantanamo.
solipsism:
–noun 1. Philosophy. the theory that only the self exists, or can be proved to exist.
2. extreme preoccupation with and indulgence of one's feelings, desires, etc.; egoistic self-absorption.
Whew, I'm glad I didn't call my blog "Colleen's Rant".
In blog world it's my decision who I read, who I respond to, whether I am forced to skip over all the titties and beer blogs, or recipe and homemaker's guides, just like some folks who will skip over Carta Blanc because you need a frickin' dictionary to understand what the hell he's saying...I think it's okay to be part of both worlds sometimes....and so I leave you with my half today...
These four pesky critters have been showing up at the back door almost every night now, scratching at my window, ripping the screen door, grasping for pellets of food. They really like Sylvester's cat food, but it's costly and they eat like pigs.
But what's worse is when I don't feed them at the back door they race up to the front door, where my cat has probably taken refuge. And they piss, they piss like dogs and spray all over my evergreens and dig holes and do messy, solipsism things.

Survivorman
We love this guy! Survivorman, aka, Les Stroud, is successfully surviving into a second season with ...
"No food, no shelter, no fresh water, no tools ... no camera crew. One man - alone in the wild for seven days with only his wits and stamina to sustain him.
Airing on The Science Channel in the U.S., and The Outdoor Life Network in Canada, each episode finds Survivorman Les Stroud abandoned in a remote location. He carries little more than the clothes on his back - and his cameras. Les not only needs to survive for a week without supplies, but he has to film everything himself, lugging over fifty pounds of camera gear the entire time. The Costa Rican rainforest, Arctic ice floes, Georgian swamp and the high Sonora desert include a few of 9 locales where Les has overcome seemingly impossible obstacles." from

Are You a Death Hag?
I am.
It's a fascinating website. It recounts the final moments of movie stars and famous people, their last minutes and hours upon our earthly realm....last meals, last sensationalized glory of themselves, even in death.
And they die in many ways.
I realize this may seem bizarre and spooky to some, but I stumbled across it quite innocently and was intrigued by the in-depth detail provided by the investigator/owner of this site, Scott Michaels at Findadeath.com, 5419 Hollywood Boulevard, #404Hollywood, CA 90027 ...and NO, I'm not getting paid for this!
Watch out for the warnings....you are warned of gruesome pictures...official coroner pics. Check out Ana Nicole - Kurt Cobain - Nicole Brown Simpson...there is a directory of famous names lined up for your curiosity.
Don't be shy..... www.findadeath.com
Each star is linked with their official death certificate, and on the lighter side, their home mailbox.
Because I have mentioned in the past inside information of Gollywood in my town, it is this person who led me to this site by the tragic death of his girlfriend...and not because I'm EMO or some weird stuff..whatever the hell EMO stands for!
