The Long Journey Home

wenn5080089.jpg

Heath Ledger's friends and loves ones gathered at a private viewing in New York City on Friday.

Unfortunately for them, their private moment of grieving was tainted by hordes of paparazzi and mainstream media outside the funeral home.

The actor's body is now on it's way back to Australia.

Ledger is expected to be buried in his hometown of Perth.

      The pronominal possessive "its" has no apostrophe. "It's" is a short form for "it is". Read a book sometime.

      So sorry about Heath Ledger, but Perez, let me advise you on grammar. The body is on its way, not it's way, to Australia. When you see the word :it's: think :it is: then put it back into the sentence. Not correct: The body is on it is way to Australia. See what I mean? Sorry to be nit-picky Perezalicious but that is just one of my pet peeves.

      RIP Heath

      I am not good at poetry
      I'm really awful at rhymes
      You thrilled and entertained me
      Probably a million times
      This world lost a gentleman
      A valiant, beautiful knight
      I would give anything
      To have you return tonight
      Although I never met you
      I cannot forget your smile
      Your confidence and dignity
      You engendered class and style
      I found strength in your brown eyes
      The expression on your face
      Forgive me if I've fallen
      For a man so full of grace
      The legacy you've left
      Could last a hundred years
      I reflect on the good times
      As I fight back these tears
      So I bid thee farewell
      My deepest sympathies
      You have enriched my life
      Thanks for the memories

      Re: I agree w/u Colleen
      1= you don't know that + not necessarily.
      2 = you don't know that + irrelevant.
      3 = extremely irrelevant, you have no point there.
      The rest of what you wrote was equally guessing bullshit.

      Yes, this is very sad.

      P.S. You have not one, but two grammatical errors in this post. Fire your proofreader.

      I still can't believe it.
      I hope his family is getting the much needed privacy to grieve.

      Thank you so much for not disgracing the soul shattering event with invasive personal photos. You have upheld the respect of a journalist as the ethics declare.

      Re: Raine – Yeah for a pathetic emotional-eating type girl or religious person.
      What about the guys who are bothered by his death, or the normal girls? and what about the people who only light a candle when the electricity is off?
      I would hardly call that an appropriate way to act, under any circumstances

      You're a jackass. All you're about is the gossip and the negatives. The world will implode if you ever recognize someone for something other than their downfall.

      I say this because this is the very first entry you have on your website about this great actor.

      You are the scum of Hollywood, unfortunately, bigger idiots than you give you the publicity you want. People are people, no matter how many other people know them. Make a living doing something worthwhile, why don't you?

      Of course, this entry is followed by your hideous interpretations of all of the drug accusations.
