Whelp, he was 50, was popping pills like PEZ after the fire thing, and wasn't the healthiest of individuals, by ANY means.
Sucks, but life goes on.
First thing I did was listen to Thriller :)

Yeah, heard about that too. Weird.

Edit: Okay, so my parents are watching the events on Fox and this commentator says something to the effect of, "Yeah, and the, you know interwebs we're just really slow today, just screeching along..."
I laughed a good bit.

I'd never heard of it until mom said it - I didn't know Ed McMahon had died.
Trippy.

You know, his death isn't nearly as big as a tragedy as his life was.
