Heath Ledger autopsy results due in 10-14 days

No illegal drugs on the $20 bill or otherwise in the apartment.

I wonder if his lying face down was a factor? Also, was his face covered? It will be interesting to see if suffocation played a role in conjunction with the pills.

28 is just too young for this.

Sorry to sound insensitive, but the death of George Reeves comes to mind. Mr. Reeves died under mysterious circumstances and with initial autopsy results saying Heath Ledger's death was inconclusive, there is the possibility we may never know how someone so young and talented came to such a fate like this.

RIP Heath Ledger

This is probably where the Olsen confusion sprang from. It's weird, but if the masseuse was familiar with Ledger's habits and Olsen, then this seems reasonable, if not exactly thoughtful.

The main character of A Knight's Tale? Played main roles in 10 Things I Hate About You, Brokeback Mountain, and filmed a role as the Joker in the latest Batman film, The Dark Knight?

He's Australian but came over here at age 19 to star in bigger movies. In Australia, he had been in Blackrock and a tv show called Sweat.

And a film about Ned Kelly. Three guesses for the title.

Lots of people at my college are pretty shocked and sad about Ledger's death. Even though I'm not an extremely huge follower of movie actors/actresses, I'm pretty disappointed that Heath Ledger died. From the couple movies I saw him in, he was great. He was definitely one of the better actors of today. People will probably be a little sad to see him on the screen knowing that he's not alive anymore. Hopefully his family found out about it before the media got hold of the information...that would be a shock to see on TV that a close family member died before you had a chance to hear about it.

Actually, it was on the radio that Ledger's family (in Perth) found out before they were rung up. His body was found at about 7:30 am AEST (my time, not Perth time).

Yet another layer added. The Westboro Baptist church, the church headed by the homophobic Rev Fred Phelps, seems intent on picketing any memorial held for Ledger in the US and at the Oscars, because of Brokeback Mountain.

Of course, should they be stupid enough to come to Australia, I'll be forming my own lynch mob.

Phelps' org has been picketing the military funerals all over this country. He's a loon.

Military AND gay funerals. Loon isn't the word I'd use, because loon implies that he is harmless. He's nothing but. He's not unlike a small-scale Hitler, one who is so overboiling with hate and determined to make others' lives a misery.

Oh, god, A Current Affair made the mistake of interviewing Phelps. But I think the interviewer's final word to him was good, even if he is still deluded that he is doing God's work.

http://video.msn.com/video.aspx?mkt=en- ... 2cdd8f1eb9

I am reminded of similarities between Phelps and Zeromus, the final boss of Final Fantasy IV. They're the embodiment of hatred.....
