    I guess today’s theme is Texas girls who made good.

  2. Jeff Goldstein says:

    Craig writes in a redundant post that I took down:

    Say goodbye to one of your favorite Goldstein bits.  Who’d have thought that she’d only outlast the old boy by a few years?  What was he, 117?

    Update: In the time it took me to not find anything on the web about it, I got scooped.  Nice job, Jon.

  3. JHoward says:

    “Rest in peace” seems more appropriate than usual.  I hope she will and that her daughter lives in grace.

  4. Molyuk says:

    I’m going out on a limb to say that drugs were involved – and I don’t mean Trimspa diet pills.

    Such a loss. To whom will gold-digging tramps look for inspiration now?

  5. What a shame, she still had a kid left.

    No, really.  Sad.

  6. A fine scotch says:

    Man, Christmas just isn’t going to be the same without my Chrismess wishes from annicole.

    alone72-That TW word generator is scary.

  7. Jim in KC says:

    Say goodbye to one of your favorite Goldstein bits.

    Nah, it just moves to a different category:  my brief conversations with inanimate objects.

  8. Ryan says:

    Very sad. Though I must admit that my first concern was whether the $130 No-Limit Hold’em tournament was still on at the Hard Rock.

    Hey, its only 15 minutes from my house. And yes I know, I am an insensitive asshole.

    Game on, by the way.

  9. kelly says:

    Wasn’t she still embroiled in a pretty bitter fight with the son of the old man over the estate booty?

  10. Gabriel Malor says:

    Heh. scotch, PW was the first thing I thought of when I saw it on CNN just now. Who new this lady would have such an impact on all our lives…

    TW: who pays the cost91?

  11. First her grown son drops dead before her eyes in her maternity ward.  Now her infant daughter will grow up with no mother and a roomful of paternity litigants for a father.  Horrible, a waste. Let this be a lesson, for any impressionable girls considering a career as a bimbo.

  12. kelly says:

    I can barely imagine what all the TV tabloid shows will do with this news. They we’re fucking obsessed with her when she was alive.

  13. Dan Collins says:

    Jeff’s already written the screenplay, Kelly.  I can’t reveal much but . . . Rosebud.

  14. ahem says:

    This is incredibly sad news. Very sad, indeed. I don’t even know what to say. Whatever its proximate cause it was, ultimately, suicide. Say a prayer for the poor woman and her family.

  15. Gray says:

    Wasn’t she still embroiled in a pretty bitter fight with the son of the old man over the estate booty?

    Nah.  He dropped dead too.

    The old man dropped dead, the son dropped dead, Anna Nicole’s son dropped dead and now she dropped dead.

    Looks like a curse to me.

  16. papertiger says:

    Your all looking on the dark side. Think about the old man up in heavan.  Now he has a bodacious set of funbags to play with again.

    Glory Halleluya.

  17. thor says:

    I bet plastic surgeons in So Flo are cussing and waiving her unpaid bills like salesmen waive credit cards at topless bars.

  18. Eric says:

    Yeah, except she never let him play with the funbags.  Or anything else, for that matter.  Maybe that’s what spawned the curse.

  19. Defense Guy says:

    Sad.  May she rest in piece, and may her baby daughter never read a bad word about her mother.

  20. JPS says:

    Second that, Defense Guy.

  21. Dan Collins says:

    Yeah.  May she rest in really nice piece.

  22. kelly says:

    Looks like a curse to me.

    No kidding. The old man didn’t get all his lucre from robbing some Egyptian tomb, did he?

  23. Steve says:

    Sad.  May she rest in piece, and may her baby daughter never read a bad word about her mother.

    I object, I certainly want her daughter to learn how to read.

    It is sad, and it’s also weird.

    Just goes to show, money isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.  Do I get points for that?

  24. I’m sorry, man. I know how much you appreciated her being there.

  25. Steve says:

    The simple fact is that, but for the minor issue of approx half a billion dollars, I would have nothing to do with, nor have any interest in having anything to do with, either Anna Nicole Smith or Paris Hilton. I don’t know, maybe I’m turning gay.

  26. mishu says:

    Anna Nicole Smith – PBUH

  27. And it seems to me you lived your life

    Like love handles in the wind….

  28. happyfeet says:

    this page explains a lot I think. yup. ducks without limit.

  29. papertiger says:

    You know that movie City of Angels where an angel comes down to take you to heaven and he asks “What was your favorite thing [about life]?”

    Anna’s answer would be what?

    She didn’t seem to be enjoying all her ill gotten wealth.

    She didn’t seem to get much joy from being a mother.

    Fame didn’t treat her very kindly.

    Sad ending.

  30. Simple Voice says:

    Conversation I had with my friend, Reno.

    Me: Did you hear Anna Nicole Smith bought the farm?

    Reno: Really? Wow!

    Me: Personally, I think she was trying to get out of the Trim-Spa lawsuit.

    Reno: I have a picture of her hugging me.

    Me: Yeah, I’ve seen that pic.

    Reno: She is now the first dead celebrity I have had my picture taken with.

    Me: Interesting.

    Reno: I hope Glenn Danzig is the second one.

  31. burrhog says:

    Anna was just a hickoid from Mexia. There is something pleasing in watching people having fun or at least trying to have fun.

    Every time I saw Anna Nicole she was having fun.

    God bless Anna Nicole Smith.

    May she rest in peace.

  32. thor says:

    If only Anna wasn’t born with big tits.

  33. Nuke 'm Hill says:

    There are no sacred cows, but there are sacred moments.  Let’s give her memory some space before we start any new Anna Nicole threads, ‘kay?  I appreciate the irreverence here as much as anyone, but it would not be a bad thing to let some time pass before we start ripping on her again.

    It’s way to early to know, but I think we’re all thinking the same thing:  it was either a suicide in fact, or in consequence.  She was clearly troubled.  And her daughter is going to grow up into a ridiculously colored historical narrative.

    Just sayin’.

  34. Dan Collins says:

    Okay, Nuke ‘em.  So, how about that Marcotte wackjob?

  35. Darleen says:

    Anna wasn’t a criminal or terrorist… her mistakes in life didn’t come from evil intentions. No matter how much her life was a real life National Enquirer front page, at least at the moment of her death we should have the class to let the easy, crass jokes go.

    May Anna have finally found some peace, and may her daughter be blessed with good but anonymous life.

  36. steve says:

    Anna wasn’t a criminal or terrorist… her mistakes in life didn’t come from evil intentions.

    Oh, really? I appreciate your generosity of spirit, something which my wife shares.  And, in keeping with the maxim de mortuis nisi bonum dicere I won’t say anything further now.

    But you have to yourself sometimes who these people are—really—who are thrown up to us a celebrities, and who, for some reason or other, we are constantly being told about.  I didn’t ask for it.  I didn’t seek it out.  It was, so to speak, thrown in my face.

  37. Ric Locke says:

    May Anna have finally found some peace, and may her daughter be blessed with good but anonymous life.

    I agree wholeheartedly with the sentiment, but Great Ghu do you have any idea how many lawyers we’d have to shoot to accomplish the latter? Even to the nearest hundred?

    Regards,

    Ric

  38. cynn says:

    Very sad.  I always found her refreshing in a Jayne Mansfield kind of way.  Best wishes for the baby’s future.

  39. Nuke 'm Hill says:

    Okay, Nuke ‘em.  So, how about that Marcotte wackjob?

    Oh, have at her!  Open season, as far as I’m concerned!

    Update: In the time it took me to not find anything on the web about it, I got scooped.  Nice job, Jon.

    CraigC: Jeff found the link, I only told him ABC radio had confirmed she was tits up. . .

  42. Robert says:

    Anna’s true career was as a low-rent doppelganger of Marilyn Monroe; she has died in a similar fashion, but without having slept with any presidents (although I’m sure Clinton would have been willing.)

    Once upon a time she was breathtakingly beautiful, though. You have to admit that.

  43. thor says:

    Her looks, lack of brains and the way she handled winning the lottery always made me gag.

    I’ll give a moment of pause to reflect on whether I should kick somebody if they’re down.

    Stomp! Stomp!  These dead ones (Anna, Molly, Sontag, Yassar, Fidel.. give it a few days) don’t feel a thing.  They’ve assumed their rightful ass-in-the-air, ankle-in-hand, prostrated permanence.

  44. McGehee says:

    I got home after having spent the afternoon sitting in a doctor’s office waiting room—appointment scheduled for 3:00, first saw my doctor at 4:30—and my wife said to me (after some preliminaries), “What did you think about Anna Nicole?”

    I think she wishes she’d had her camera to preserve my blank expression for posterity as I asked, “Why, what’d she do this time?”

  45. happyfeet says:

    This is one of those funny threads that really thrives for a short time and then just dies.

  46. steve says:

    That is because every woman, somewhere deep in her vagina, identifies with Anna Nicole Smith.  I know it’s hard to believe, but there it is.

    Those of us with Venus Envy are well advised to be quiet. For a time.

  47. CAROLYN says:

    THOSE OF US WITHOUT SIN CAST THE FIRST STONE

    THEY COULDN’T LEAVE YOU ALONE TO MORN YOUR SON.  IT IS ASHAME.  A GREAT LOST. NOW YOU ARE IN PEACE.  I WORRY ABOUT THE BABY.  MAY GOD PROTECT THE LITTLE ONE. GOD BLESS YOU ANNA

  48. Mikey NTH says:

    McGehee, that was the best one.  I can imagine you quickly putting together the mask, thinking, “Now what did I do?”

  49. James Gardner says:

    WHY DO YOU MOURN THE DEATH OF THIS WORTHLESS SLUT?SHE DID NOTHING FOR ANYONE SHE WAS JUST A DUMB,FILTHY GOLDIGGER WITHOUT EVEN ANY TALENT.IT DISGUSTS ME THAT SOMEONE SO WORTHLESS CAN HAVE SO MUCH MONEY WHEN THERE ARE MORE DESERVING PEOPLE IN THE WORLD.I DO NOT MOURN HER DEATH,I CELEBRATE IT,KNOWING THAT A WORTHLESS PIG HAS LEFT OUR EARTH.I HOPE THE BITCH SUFFERED!I HOPE SHE LIVED IN CONSTANT AGONY AFTER HER BRAT OF A SON DIED.AND I HOPE HER DEATH WAS PAINFUL!!!SAVE YOUR MOURNING FOR SOMEONE WHO DESERVES IT,MILLIONS OF MORE PEOPLE DIE EACH DAY WHO ARE MORE WORTHY OF MOURNING,YET THEY ARE FORGOTTEN AND PEOPLE LIKE THIS ARE REMEMBERED?SICKENING…..

  50. Maybe because she may have been a sick, drunk, drug-addicted goldigger slut, but she was OUR sick, drunk, drug-addicted, goldigger slut. 

    Plus, she knew where the CAPS-LOCK key was, had big hooters and dammit, we liked her.

    TW: friends13.  *sniff*

  51. james gardner says:

    I know where the cap locks key is. I wrote it with caplocks on to emphasize my point and outrage.

    also for those of you saying she is in “gods hands” or “living in peace” you are fools.If she was anywhere she would be burning in hell with her little brat or simply decomposing in her coffin.

  52. That’s sweet, thanks.  Say hello to God for me.

  53. CAROLYN says:

    I DON’T ARGUE, WITH IGNORANCE.  I WON’T BE REVIEWING THIS SITE AGAIN.  SO, KNOCK YOURSELF OUT WITH STUPID REMARKS.  ONLY OTHER DUMMIES WILL BE READING WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY AND AGREE.  THE REST OF THEM WILL IGNORE YOU AS WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS YOU ANNA.  ABOVE ALL PROTECT THE BABY!!

  54. Jess says:

    Isn’t it great what Anna Nicole was able to do with her only talent being a pair of silicone enhanced breasts? She made more from them than all her nay sayers combined. She lived the American dream while we talented elitists spend our time slamming her and others on an Internet Blog. Pathetic.
