i noticed that no one has posted about this, in case you haven't heard Gary Coleman died yesterday, he was 42:

it's odd, usually when i hear about a celebrity dying i'm like "that's too bad" but i don't really feel anything; for some reason this news has really saddened me, only other time i ever really felt bad was when i heard that John Ritter had passed.

really feel sorry for the little guy...

His fame was double edged.

He was small but cute and that was used to his advantage. Then, as he got older, he lost his star quite-some, ran into problems (with finding work, if I recall--just like Dana Plato, who also died though at a younger age) and the rest is tipicle history of how stars turn good, bad and ugly.

Coensidentally, I was watching some of his appearances on shows, like facts of life, he only had one appearance on that show, S1EP1. At least he got several hugs, squeezes and coupld of kisses in that one.
I never liked him, but did like show, different strokes, course, it was mainly for Dana Plato, cause she was hot back then.
