| A certain young lady went off to school with tears in her eyes this morning. The guy obviously had great talent. |

Location: SoCal | I had a friend who used to say that celebrity deaths come in "3's". So we've had Suzanne Pleshette, John Stewart, and Keith Ledger. Hopefully, it will be quiet for a while.
Now to keep this on Ovation guitars, Stewart, in the early 80's (1984?), on the PBS special, The Kingston Trio and Friends, played both a GC 12 and 6 string..... |

Location: Cicero, NY | It is a shame about Ledger. Heard his recent Joker role is fantastic and quite a bit darker portrayal than Jack's. Hate to see good ones go. Especially ones that seem to understand that their actors and not spectacles that have to be in the spotlight every split second. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I didn't watch Brokeback Mountain. My wife says it was because I'm a homophobe. I know it was because I was watching the Boise State v. Idaho football game on the other TV and it went into overtime. She said it was a sweet story and had great scenery. I can see cowboys and scenery like that every day. |

Location: UK | Mark , i think we may have had this exchange before but i think watching a football game is at least as homoerotic as watching Brokeback Mountain |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I never figured out what you do with that stuff. My wife's uncle Fuzzy gave me a pinch one time and I ended up swallowing some and having the dry heaves for the rest of the day. Ruined a perfecly good meal. |

Location: Red Deer, Alberta, Canada | R.I.P. Heath Ledger.. I was shocked to hear they found him dead at such a young age. I do have some of his movies that I will treasure forever. My prayers and thoughts go out to all his family and friends; and especially his daughter! Very fine actor and did a great job in them. :( | |
