The brightess lights are but ephemeral. R.I.P. Amy Winehouse.

Here is a link of what I believe was her last performance (Her death should not have been a surprise to anyone).

Troubled singer had a long battle with drink and drugs
London Ambulance Service found singer at 3.54pm but unable to save her life
Police treated death as 'unexplained'

Amy Winehouse has been found dead at her home in London.
The Back To Black singer was found at the property by emergency services at 3.54pm this afternoon, according to sources, and her death is being treated as 'unexplained' by police.

In a statement, the Metropolitan Police said: 'Police were called by London Ambulance Service to an address in Camden Square NW1 shortly before 16.05hrs today, Saturday 23 July, following reports of a woman found deceased.

Are you saying that this is not news? Or that "iTulip news" should only involve economics/finance?

FRED, can move this to R&R if he/she so wishes.

A body can only take so much abuse. Such a waste of talent, and another member of the 27 Club.

Hmm, I think it is relevant. It puts the lie to the idea that humans are perfectly rational omniscient entities. I know a lot of people who work or worked on Wall St., and not a few of them are burned out from drink and drugs with slowed speech and seem to be 20 years older than they are... and they are running Wall St.!

Just like the NFL players who all have brain damage to one degree or another, I'm sure her brain has not been operating normally for quite some time.

I have two friends to whom I have been explaining for the last five years that we were going to have a depression, real estate was going to collapse, and that the US empire was in its twilight so get used to a standard of living of about half. So what did they do? Speculate in real estate. Now they say they want to kill themselves. And have specifically told their families when they are going to do it. This has been just exhausting.

We need to keep an eye on everyone we know because any one of us could become depressed and spiral down.

I had not seen many of these videos. What art would have come, we will never know.

One never knows when a single death may spark the next Arab Spring.

Things are getting rather "twitchy" out there now.
