I dont know who this guy was or what his claim to fame was. There was another, better known actor who did the same thing--River Phoenix, I think?

Corey Haim was an 80's "teen heart throb" although I was never really a fan of his. He is mostly known for his part in the movie "Lost Boy's" - a movie about vampires. I posted his death because he was ( or at least I thought he was) pretty well known among the 80's generation.

I was an 80's brat and remember him well. So very sad to go at such a young age and for such stupid shit (this coming from a girl who often tries swalling too ma ny pills to end it all).

I hop ehis friends and family can find some sort of peace ,

River Pheonix did die in similar curcumstances, I want to say somehting abotu partying at a club,,od,,,etc,,,etcc,,,
His little brother ended up being the superstar of the family.

Also the guy who played 'BONER" on a popular 80's prgram axed himself off a week or so go aswell.

This is just a curiousity, but in his instructions to Bodhisattvas, the Buddha tells them not to associate with actors, dancers, or other people who create illusions.
