RIP Lauren Bacall[^]
Such a classic beauty; such a great actress at the best of the black'n'white movie era!!

Williams went to plagiarists' Hell, and Bacall went to the Hell of boyfriends standing on boxes?
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

That was my first reaction as well; but it looks that she was still working.

Well, at least she made it to the finish line ( that is, lived long enough that people were surprised she had not died yet )

Another true legend gone, that's almost the last of em.
Bogie and Bacall what magic.
Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?
Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.

Oh, did I miss the posts about two of our legends - Sacha Barber and SAK?
Whether I think I can, or think I can't, I am always bloody right!

I'm sticking with the people who frequent the lounge. I started this off to give the recipients a little ego boost.

Like average developer need ego boost...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

It is, indeed, sad that he has killed himself. What a waste but entirely his own choice.
What I don't get is the ridiculous public outpouring of grief, especially on farcebook and twatter. He was funny. He died. Get over it.
It's a bit like the lunacy that prevailed when princess Diana was killed.
I didn't get it then and I don't get it now.
Again, sad but what the elephant, people, get a grip!
[Dons flame-proof suit and steps back sharply]
Addendum: did watch a bit of Mork and Mindy earlier: the man really was very funny.

Eh, I think Williams had a lot more effect on most of our lives than Diana. He and Carlin were my two favorite stand-up comics, and they're both gone now.
Not shedding any tears for someone I never knew personally, or even saw in person for that matter, but still... Sucks that he's gone.
EDIT: I think a lot of the media coverage is from one of two camps... 1) People who knew him personally and are genuinely mourning him. 2) People who think posting something sad about a well-liked celebrity will make them more popular or get them some more hits/followers/likes/etc.... Mostly #2.

The effect on our simple lives is nothing; but the effect on the different charities that her foundation is supporting is important.
