Sunday Monday, Happy Days.

That woman had her share of problems for whatever reason. Life doesn't turn out the way we imagine it sometimes.

Considering her downward spiral and poverty that she went through after Hollywood was done with her, I wouldn't be surprised if she died from a drug overdose.

It is sad how she squandered the money she made when she was at the height of her fame. She never hit any real roles later and spun down into a death spiral.

May she Rest In Peace.

Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

It seemed like she might have had some clinical mental illness's that never got the proper medical attention. Sad indeed. The show was corny, but good, clean fun from a simpler time. RIP.

RIP sweet Joanie.
I knew an actress who retired to Asheville to care for her parents. She scraped by after her husband cleaned her bank accounts out and never got much income from royalties. She had a photo of President Reagan and her when he helped get royalties for actors improved.

Have you seen the Arrow? WWW

I love Dodgeball!! It was nice to see Wash from Firefly in it.

That was my first thought too but it seems that it was cancer.
