Roy from "Shipping Wars". I sometimes watch this during the marathon time slots on History. Does Heather need a hug?

He was pretty funny. Too bad.

I'm trying to wrap my mind around what was said or done in the room that producers were able to successfully pitch a reality tv show about shipping to A&E.

It's fun to watch. It's a real business competition.

That's always scary. He was young and pretty fit looking.

Dam 49 way too young I liked him on the show.

It is pretty good, I am not sure why but it is as entertaining as storage wars. .

Philip Seymour Hoffman

Drug overdose, needle supposedly still in his arm when they found him. Wow.

That really sucks. One of the best at his craft.

This, along with Gandolfini and even Paul Walker, have pissed me off.

Man, that sucks

Drug overdose, needle supposedly still in his arm when they found him. Wow.

I'm going full tinfoil hat and going to say it was a murder by Scientology.

This, along with Gandolfini and even Paul Walker, have pissed me off.

 

 

Yeah, this one made me pause for some reason. No idea why.

 

R.I.P.

Always thought Hoffman was so immensely talented but never got the level of recognition he deserved. Saw someone tweet about it, and they said "you always believed that he was 100% into that role". Really enjoyed him in Charlie Wilson's War.

too bad. I had heard he stopped acting to try and get clean.

 

He only stayed in rehab 10 days according to TMZ.

3 kids and he was still messing around with heroin? WTF

How is winning an Oscar for best actor not getting the recognition you deserve?

I'm guessing I wasn't the only person in America who saw the name and said "where do I know that name?" and then looking him up and saying "God he looks so familar, what the heck has he been in?" and then seeing that oh yeah, this guy has been in a ton of stuff.

it's not really one of those things you can just DECIDE to stop doing one day... it's a tad more complicated than that...

 

nonetheless I agree with you that it's incredibly selfish and stupid to not at least try and seek help given his circumstances. 10 days in rehab doesn't quite cut it imo.

 

so stupid.

But that doesn't mean he hasn't received the recognition he deserved...whether people knew who he was or not, he still received the highest possible honor in his profession.

And the word recognition has multiple definitions and interpretations too.
