Farewell, Princess Leia. May you rest in peace, and may the Force be with you.

I really don't understand why she went from "stable condition" to dead,
given that she had the best medical care in the world.

I think the medical crisis happening on a plane in the air is what did her in. It took that much longer for her to get the critical care she needed.

According to TMZ, she never woke up from it.

Good grief! TMZ is now reporting that Carrie Fisher's mother, Debbie Reynolds, has passed away at age 84 after being rushed to the hospital.

One day after her daughter passed away. Her death must've been too much for Mrs. Reynolds.

A great talent, she will be missed. R.I.P.

This is from Ken Levine at blog spot. I suspect Rich has read this.


I think of a moment involving a show featuring one of Ken's least favorite people (and it does demonstrate his good taste). Debbie Reynolds played John Goodman's mother on "Roseanne." On one episode, DJ, the son, walks into the kitchen, where she is reading the paper. She asks where he's going and he replies that he's off to a friend's to watch "Star Wars." He says something like, "Boy, that Princess Leia is hot." And she immediately punches him in the stomach. He cries out and then says, "Why did you do that?" She gets a funny look and says, "I don't know." It was perfect. Carrie probably loved it.

All of this is so sad

She was a 20-ish model when she made that movie. Gene Kelly had to teach her how to dance. You'd never know it from the way she kept up with two of the masters!
