I reckon he was psychotic. I always reckon anti-Semites are psychotic.

You have a point there. I didn't realise that he was an anti semite and a

traitor till I read the links from the bio. I just remember him from when I was

a kid, and he was one of my heroes. It's real sad to see what he became later.

If he was, I wouldn't spread it around. The man was an anti-semite and a

traitor.

PASS IT ON!

Visit http://www.thehungersite.com to give food to the hungry with just

a click -- every day and at no cost to you.

HOW IT WORKS

When you click the " Give Free Food " button (once a day per person) at

http://www.thehungersite.com, this simple action gives over a cup of

fortified food to a hungry person.

It costs you nothing. Funding is paid by site sponsors and food is

distributed by two leading nonprofit hunger relief organizations: Mercy

Corps and America's Second Harvest. (A valid site -- I checked it out -- JP)

As Margaret Mead said, " Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed

citizens can change the world: Indeed it's the only thing that ever has. "

Hi Joni and all here,

This may be slightly OT here but it does have to do with hero/idol

worship.

I happened to be a big fan until the proverbial shit hit

the fan (as they say.) Such talent wasted and gone down the tubes!!!

BTW, Anyone here catch on VH1 Dr. Drew's " Celebrity Rehab? " Really

daunting.. I think it's overdue time we all got together and formed a

FANS UNION and boycott or go on strike whenever these people (who are

supposedly " role models " ) take on the roles of morons and misbehave. At

least Joe Willie Namath knows what responsibility and taking

accountability is. Hie got his bachelors' degree from University of

Alabama. I know that that was probably one of the best Christmas gifts

his daughters got from Dad. He may have had issues in the past, but

don't we all?? We must know how to play our cards dealt us.

Bobby Fischer... I remember when I was 12, my older brother was into the

chess club in school and followed the tournament on TV. Sad he made the

choices he did in life and went into exile in Iceland. I sometimes

think that these people do not have proper guidance or are swayed the

wrong way in their life. I have to admit, that I see plenty of train

wrecks waiting to happen on the sidelines.

I am watching celebrity rehab.

Shows how much time on my hands to devote to trash TV, I want to say I

cannot berate the 'bad' TV unless I view it, and my daughter is a part of

this generation so sometimes I view it.

Watching this guy Jeff who I have seen on Taxi and Grease, and now on this

'show' I am not any less a fan.

Just because I didn't choose the crutch of heroin or vicodin or alcohol,

etc. etc. doesn't make me better than him.

I am glad he contributed to the world the way he did, and yes its sad

because he " could have " done more in the arts, but I see it this way.

I hope that in his all his strung out patheticness there are would be

addicts with the chemical make-up that makes them predisposed to being

addicted to chemicals, they see him and they are repulsed.

Because this man probably will be dead within a year.

If he does, its really not a waste. I think he's been a teaching soul.

I think that when I see the show.

I like to try and think, 'what are today's youth seeing?' The nasty side to

trying drugs hopefuly. because today the drug of choice isn't a hit off a

doobie, its far worse. They seem too stupid, or to be in such a state of

apathy that they don't care and then wham they are so into the addiction

that its a spiral of lying, stealing, despair.

I am rooting for him.

I don't think anyone on that show is saying " Look at these role models. " I

think they are saying , quite the opposite.
