Mathew Perry died (Friends)

[Pearl]

Since "news of the day" has changed, guess this belongs here! Anyhow, "Chandler" from the TV show Friends drown in a hot tub! He was an alcoholic and drug user!

I saw last week that Suzanne Sommers and Richard Roundtree had both passed away too.

Drowning or heart attack? So sad

 

[Weedygarden]

I had seen a video a few months ago where he looked terrible and substance abuse came up. Some people seem to become addicts of something or anything that comes their way.

Wife just told me Jeff Beck, legendary guitar player, died this week as well. He was super talented and had been around for years.

It says that he drowned in the hot tub:

Perry later estimated he had spent $9 million to get sober. He revealed that due to his addiction issues, he did not remember three years of the time he was acting on Friends, between seasons three and six.... Perry died at age 54 from an apparent drowning in a hot tub at his Los Angeles home on October 28, 2023.

Who we're talking about:

I'll miss Suzanne Somers more . She was awesome.

 

[Bacpacker]

A whole lot easier on the eyes for sure.

They always go in threes, anybody else notice this? When we lose one, we get a ten-day window, and two more die, you can set your watch by it!

Back in January I believe.

 

[Curmudgeon]

Joan Evans has passed as well.

Yep, it's really strange.

Correct, January 10th. I loved Jeff Beck but did you ever hear the young girl that played Bass with him? Her name is Tal Wilkenfeld, and she is amazing. I was really impressed. She must have been really good to be that young (mid 20's) and playing with Jeff Beck, Prince, Eric Clapton and more.

I did not know that.
Time for me to crank up some White Boy Blues.

I come from a family with addictions. I am grateful that drinking, even part of one drink makes me sick so I can't or won't drink. Never wanted to be a druggie and had friends who were also in that belief. Does that make me better than anyone who is addicted. Nope!
I know many people are easily addicted. Some people are addicted to alcohol, or some medication or drugs, and I've know people who were addicted to gambling. We're all dealt a particular hand in life and if we are strong enough, we can make good decisions to protect ourselves from harm.

I was surprised to hear that Keith Morrison, the narrator on "Dateline" was his step father.

I don't know what his cause of death was, so keep that in mind.

Honestly if you gave an updated pic, he looks like he was rode hard during his life. My complete guess is a heart attack.

Does anyone else find it interesting that Pfizer hired Travis Kelsey instead of Damar Hamlin? To promote their covid shot?

 

[Morgan101]

I really hope that any toxicology tests that they do come back negative. I know nothing about Matthew Perry other than what is reported in the news, but I got the impression that he was sincere about battling his demons and helping others. I hope he didn't relapse.

I read that he had almost died 4 or 5 times in the last year, and had been revived each time. None of them were drug or alcohol related. I think his body was probably pretty messed up from the addictions. I expect that the drug tests come back negative. He likely had another one of those episodes that he had had over the last year while in the hot tub and drowned in the process. I sure could be wrong.

I think it was multiple issues and the main was he was totally vaxxed and push.
