Whitney Houston

Tonight is another rare occurrence when I am shocked by a celebrity death. Granted it's only been a few days since the latest paparazzi shots of Whitney leaving a club looking drugged out and somewhat bloodied.  She clearly had not gotten over her well-known drug issues, but I figured she was one of those musicians (like Keith Richards) who could merrily go on their way abusing drugs without killing themselves.  I have never been a fan of Whitney Houston (wailing female singers aren't my thing), but she she accomplished a lot in her professional life and could have done a lot more.
