I'm very sad about Elizabeth Edwards passing away. I'm surprised I'm so sad about this. I thought she had posted on FB just today or recently.

I'm reminded of Loretta Swit's character Margaret Hoolihan on MASH when she said at one soldier's passing: "I'll never get used to it, one moment you're here and the next moment you're gone.".

I was saddened by her passing also and the fact that today is the 30th anniversary of John Lennon's passing!

I saw her on Larry King live not all that long ago and she was quite impressive.

I can't believe it has been thirty years. At the time I didn't know much about Lennon and the Beatles. Ironically, I only began to fully appreciate them after his death. As I mentioned elsewhere, I was very sorry to hear about Elizabeth Edwards. She was certainly dealt a bad hand later in life. Very sad.

Yesterday I saw that the Edwards funeral was going to be protested (More like hijacked) by that church group the often protests soldiers funerals as well as those that die of AIDS). Pisses me off. Leave the family alone already. Haven't they been through enough? There will be young children attending also. Do they have no boundries?

I read that they are staging the demonstration because they say that God Hates Elizabeth Edwards. How sick is that. And these people call themselves christians. A true christian knows that God doesn't hate anyone. These are just sick and hateful people who don't know the first thing about being a christian. I also know that most non christians are not hateful like these fake idiots.

Those people are evil tools and they certainly don't speak for any god I know of.

How can you hate a woman who was treated like trash by her ex husband and put through as much as she was? There are some seriously ill people who do some despicable acts all in the name of religion!!!!!!!!! Why do you think I hate organized religion more and more?

That lovely group of protesters did their thing at the funeral for Gwen Araujo, right around the corner from our house. She was the transgender teen that was murdered (right around the corner from our house). They also picketed the school. I had to look at them when I would pick my kids up. I can't tell you the sick feeling it gave me in the pit of my stomach.

I think the protesters are living proof that God doesn't hate. If He can put up with them He can put up with anyone.

Blake Edwards has passed away. LOS ANGELES – Blake Edwards, the director and writer known for clever dialogue, poignance and occasional belly-laugh sight gags in "Breakfast at Tiffany's," "10" and the "Pink Panther" farces, is dead at age 88. Edwards died from complications of pneumonia at about 10:30 p.m. Wednesday at St. John's Health Center in Santa Monica, said publicist Gene Schwam. Blake's wife, Julie Andrews, and other family members were at his side. He had been hospitalized for about two weeks.

That photo of Julie Andrews OG posted is freaking me out, she looks like The Joker. I feel dreadful for her losing her husband, though, I've always been a great fan of them both.

Very sad about this. It's a great loss. Met him, Julie and one of her daughters when they were in Toronto, years ago at a film festival. I had the honour of interviewing them at a press conference and afterwards in their suite.
