JB, you've got to do this more often, for one brief shining moment before the news sites posted the story, I was the most popular guy in the office.
Really sad

One of our producers had this huge gasp when the AP alert crossed.
Complete shock. Damn... just, damn...

Never heard of him but R.I.P.
NY Times confimed the part about the pills.
Hmm. Sydney Morning Herald says it was a OD:

Unbeavable.
Did he finish TDK?
Holy . I thought this was for the Batman movie at first.
RIP.
Same story as far too many before him. What a waste.
someone needs to get out more.
Such terrible news.
Usually artist that OD have a history with drugs. Was i the only one who didnt know he had a drug problem?
I didn't know he had a drug problem either. This is a real shock.
I'm sure it was more of a suicide than an accidental OD
if they're in Hollywood i just assume they have a drug problem.
That's the Hollywood culture.
Suicide sounds more like what it may be. This is still really sad. I think I'm gonna go watch Lords of Dogtown because of this.
Wow the New York Times is reporting he was found in Mary Kate Olsens apartment
