Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

daughter Jamie Lee Curtis has confirmed that her legendary actor father has indeed moved on. He was 85.
Man was a legend-the quote in the title is his.
They just don't make them like that anymore.

I did love
Some Like It Hot . Even though he said that kissing Marilyn Monroe was like kissing Hitler (or something along those lines).
Another from the era when stars were
real stars has gone. And so it goes.

Too true Mark
On a personal note for me, Tony Curtis was a star I share my birthdate with, Suzi Quatro is another.

RIP Tony
I'll be thinking about you on my next birthday - one less invite to send out.

This, for example, is a phenomena that would entirely stop with just a little bit of genuine self-reflexion from the sufferers.
But in all honesty, i do think that anyone who is affected by the death of a "star" or an "idol" would benefit from sessions with a jungian therapist.
And intellectualization of the subject (ie. explaining it away by seemingly reasonable arguments) means deflecting it.

It's only human to be affected emotionally by the death of someone who has touched your life, no matter how small the contact.

I agree. That said how would you react if AE died. You seem to be quite fond of him/his work.

It's just a shame though that in these days you re likely to be less affected emotionally by a neighbour or a colleague with breast cancer than by for example Kylie Minogue.
People also use the words "gutted", "shattered" etc to describe an event that causes only the smallest of ripples in your life.
