The situation with Patrick also makes me think of that Jade Goody woman from England. I can't imagine being relatively young and knowing you are going to likely die any day. LT, I had no idea you were such a Prince fan!

Oh, LT you know I'm all over that! His name is Prince. And he is funky. His name is Prince. The one and only.

What is everyone's favorite Prince song? I like his song Seven, but am a fan of all.

I can't even narrow it down to a top 10. The first one I thought of was Controversy but...sheesh. Little Red Corvette. Erotic City. Take Me With You. Kiss. When U Were Mine. Nothing Compares 2 U. Anotherloverholenyohead. Raspberry Beret. Do Me, Baby. Let's Pretend We're Married. And on and on.

I'm woefully ignorant about music. It's that pesky hearing loss. I can hear well enough with my hearing aid to enjoy it, but it's hard for me to stay on top of new songs. I used to do that with MTV when they played pretty much nothing but music videos, but it's been a long time since they did that. It helped me immensely to have that visual. Most of the Prince songs I am familiar with are from the 80s! I still love Purple Rain.

I think the headline "THE END" was extremely morbid and putting bad juju out in the universe. A better headline would've been "keep fighting, Patrick!" I like "Darling Nikki" by Prince, but he's awesome so whatever.

My sister is a huge Prince fan. She used to go to all his shows. She'd even find out about the "secret" ones and show up there. I wish I had some pics of the outfits she used to wear. She used to have these long conversations about the true meaning of his songs. She still loves him but not to the same extreme.

I saw Prince a few years ago. I think the only album of his I own is Purple Rain. And yes, the album, on vinyl. I don't have a single CD of his, but of course know all the hits. I normally won't go to a concert if I don't own the CD's of the artist because I get bored listening to songs I don't know. But not at Prince. I could listen to him play and play. Just a great entertainer. Money well spent for sure!

I remember going to see him, The Time, and Vanity 6. Freaking awesome concert and they ran it past the time that it was supposed to be over. I remember going to the movies to see Purple Rain. I was in Italy and it was the base theatre. The seats began shaking and stuff and we all thought that they had the bass up too high. Then the speakers came off the walls and they told us that they were having an earthquake, LOL ... And now I have Erotic City stuck in my head, lol ...

That's a hilarious Italy/earthquake story. I remember going to see Purple Rain in high school with my sister and her friends. I will have to look up the Erotic City song, and also the first one to pop into Tish's head - Controversy. I like the titles. LOL.

Maris, great question! I love all of Prince's work. I will never forget seeing him in concert when he sang Do Me Baby in a bed onstage, it was the sexiest thing I had ever seen. Back then you didnt see that much sexy so us girls were like ooohhhhh and OMG! and felt like we were watching something we shouldnt be watching. I wonder if there is a video of that somewhere. I also love all the groups Prince was involved with; The Time, Shelia E, Vanity, Appolania, even Sheena Easton (love that duet).

He's an absolute genius! I'll pick, When Doves Cry, as my favorite Prince song.

Housequake - you have to crank up the speakers and dance when that song comes on.

LOS ANGELES – Things are about to get crowded in Cat Cora's kitchen. The "Iron Chef America" star says on her MySpace page that she and her partner, Jennifer, are each expecting sons. "(Jennifer) carried my embryo and I carried hers," Cora told OK Magazine. "It's like surrogating, but obviously all of our kids are equal." The same anonymous sperm donor fathered all four children. The 41-year-old Food Network chef says she and her 37-year-old partner will deliver their babies about three months apart. The couple already has two sons: Zoran, 5 and Caje, 22 months.

OK, I admit I'm a bit of an anglophile, but isn't this one of the best photos of Queen Elizabeth you've ever seen?
Just beautiful. So much better than her orchestrated portraits.

Vacanick, it looks like a 1950's happy homemaker's spread. Except with two mommies, which probably would not have gone over well during that time period.... We have made progress on some things!
