Wheres the justice?  |  IP: Logged Pravin Ratnam Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 844 From: Atlanta, GA,USA Registered: Sep 2002 posted 07-05-2003 02:42 AM                     I think barry white died out of boredom seeing a Ruben "american idol" video that is being shown on tv now.  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?" Posts: 4143 From: Boston, MA Registered: Apr 2002 posted 07-05-2003 05:06 AM                        Andrew, life is very unfair. That is why I chain smoke - it gives me a chance to live much longer. Sounds illogical to you? Think about it. Many people live good healthy lives, and then they are mowed down by a drunken driver. So it is a proven fact that life is unfair and it is much more likely that you will live longer if you live unhealthily.  |  IP: Logged Charles Everett Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: New Jersey Registered: May 2001 posted 07-05-2003 09:05 AM                     Pravin: Mr. White had not been in good health for some time. An apology is certainly in order. R&B radio station 98.7 Kiss FM in New York broke from its regular format to feature Barry's music. None of the oldies stations in my area did anything. The trailer for American Wedding includes one of Barry's biggest hits -- "You're the First, the Last, My Everything".  |  IP: Logged Pravin Ratnam Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 844 From: Atlanta, GA,USA Registered: Sep 2002 posted 07-05-2003 09:13 PM                     No apology in order Charles(you would be the last person I would expect to be so sensitive). Relax man, it was an indirect tribute to White and a dig at the american idols who are compared to the greats of the music industry.  |  IP: Logged William T.

He will be greatly missed in the music industry.  |  IP: Logged
