She is a drug addict that is currently failing Celebrity Rehab.  You just never know.  Plus, I don't like to jinx people I like.   :-)

Leif Garrett. I watched him last night on Celeb Rehab. His Mom has stage 4 lung cancer. He has that look in his eyes. He could care less about life.

She was on "I'm a Celebrity get me outa here" She was vile to watch. I do not know her drug of choice though.  She is a user of humans, you can tell by her reactions to certain things.  She is a survivor if she OD's it will be by mistake. Yes I am a reality show watcher.

Oooohhh...didn't consider the Owen Wilson angle, what with him attempting suicide not long ago.

There's plenty of others I'd throw in too...

Jack LaLane
Harry Morgan
Abe Vigoda
Jeff Conaway
Andy Rooney
Elizabeth Taylor

And most likely to be found on the beach face down in a pile of her own puke....SNOOKI!!!!!

Snooki could be a 2012 pick.  She might have a year left in her.

I do too.  Jerry is going to be awfully damned pissed at Jeff, when he finally self-destructs.  I don't blame him.

Gary Busey had a terrible motorcycle wreck, that is the reason he is out of it. He is the reason California has a helmet law.
