A Little Weirded Out….
I’m an avid forum poster even having my screen name appear in a federal lawsuit for some ridiculous reasons. As a result, I’ve come to know many members and have earned respect for some moderators on the forum who have certainly stepped up to do a good job. Some of the other moderators are there just for under the table money and self promotion which is truly disgusting considering how many ready and willing members would do it for free.

Regardless, I chopped a picture of myself and moderator named Jkeithc82 as a joke few years back because we both seemed a little too outspoken at times over forum reforms. As you can see below, my face is actually blended over the late Heath Ledger who just passed away.

In reality, I never saw the movie Brokeback Mountain. However, I do feel terrible about Mr. Ledger’s death because he leaves two year old daughter behind and was a talented actor. It’s shame when young talent doesn’t live to see their few potential. Another actor who comes to mind is the late River Phoenix who died outside of Johnny Depp’s infamous Viper Room in Holly Wood, CA. He too was gripped by the darkside of success.

Regardless, I think it’s time I retire my Brokeback Forum photochop out of respect for Mr. Ledger and his family. I hope they can find comfort in these trying times as surely the passing of loved one is never easy. Hopefully Mr. Ledger is in a better place smiling down on us all.

Chris Farley, Phil Hartman, John Candy, Jim Morrison, John Belushi, etc. Success does sometimes take its toll…..Tragic!

I was shocked when I heard about Heath Ledger’s death as well. Did they find out what happened? I saw the movie Brokeback Mountain and read the book. Both were quite good.

Yep, it was a shame. 28 years old and the world at his feet…………a waste

I thought you were going to retire it?
