    Prince is dead?!

    Musician Prince was found dead this morning.

    I wasn't a huge fan of Bowie or Haggard so I noted their deaths with sadness but rather impersonally. But I was a teenager when PURPLE RAIN was released. I haven't loved everything Prince did, but I always admired his creativity and musicality, and this one is stunning.

    I'd always hoped to see him in concert some day.

    Wow.

    I know I can't believe it! Though it still seems to be somewhat rumored at this point? The police haven't confirmed it, an unidentified family member has just reported it?

    I am shocked. I was a teenager in his big time. Shocked.

    No, his reps have confirmed it. It's now on AP, Washington Post, Rolling Stone...

    He was 57. They said he had been having "flu-like symptoms". Wow... that kind of vague description could cover a lot of serious conditions. The one I think of is pulmonary embolism. Small embolism can make you short of breath and give you a cough. A big one and you drop like a rock.

    So sad.

    I have always loved Prince. I was reading this morning on Fox news & MSN that he may have overdosed. God, I hope not. I just can't believe he is gone. So sad.

    saw the ticker come across the internet page yesterday, one of my best friends the 1st year of college was really into Prince, so i learned to enjoy some of his stuff. Sad, lots of artists from my youth gone in the last year...
