Sad day

 

Oscar winner and comedian Robin Williams died this morning at 63. While his publicist wouldn’t confirm that it was a suicide, they did issue this statement. “Robin Williams passed away this morning. He has been battling severe depression of late. This is a tragic and sudden loss. The family respectfully asks for their privacy as they grieve during this very difficult time.”

Williams, who won an Oscar for his supporting role in Good Will Hunting, will reprise his role as Theodore Roosevelt in the third installment of Night at the Museum this December. He had recently signed on to reprise his beloved role as Mrs. Doubtfire in a sequel to be directed by Chris Columbus and was last seen opposite Annette Bening in the indie film The Face of Love.

Not dead according to this: http://en.mediamass.net/people/robin-williams/deathhoax.html

 

Edit; Thats weird, i googled "robin williams death" right at 7:00 when it was reported on the CBS evening news and got 1 return. 30 minutes later the exact same search yielded tons of hits from various news sources.

I'd love to know what problems I'd have if money wasn't one of them.

 

Money would still be one of them.

 

In his case, I read that even as a child he had a hard time dealing with confrontational situations and would 'enter into a character' to deal with things. He never got help for this and likely struggled to deal with depression, etc.
