Isn't she a known for having mental health issues? That combined with recent surgery/injury and the resources to get the pills is almost always the culprit at her age. I want to say it is the new cancer, but cancer is not so frequently self inflicted like this.
yeah, i'm not doubting that could be the cause. sucks. she wasn't even so much older than i am.

Should we get rid of MLK day since he repeatedly cheated on his wife, which is among the worst forms of spousal abuse?

no worries. most hmfers don't seem to think much of them, given the success of the thread in the music section.

do you want to give up the holiday? and was it given because of his marital success?

We can rename the day to be Civil Rights Day or something else to honor African American contribution. I always thought it was ridiculous to have a national holiday named after a single person anyway, as the real work was done by millions, not one man.

They had some of the most recognizable songs of the 90's, especially in concern to films/tv exposure, so I give them plenty of credit for that. But as you know, it's not like I would buy their albums.

you seem to have pretty varied taste? metallica to 311 (

) to taylor swift. but if the cranberries are too far, that's fair enough.

wouldn't that be more thanksgiving replacement-y? but it could work for either, i suppose.

Yeah, but Columbus was white and MLK was black, so we can't have the same level of outrage.

Without Columbus we would have pesky indians running around all over the place, Hitler would have won WWII, and Superman would probably be flying around with a feathered head dress.
