    I was reading some interviews of the actor on a website.
    He claimed to be a stricked Vegan he did not believe you should be crual to any living thing. That's fine. He also gave a co-star a hard time because she was drinking soda. He said you should live a clean pure lifestyle. Then he died of a drug overdose!? does this make sense. Sorry I can't respect someone (living or dead) who preaches but does the opposite. Sorry taking drugs is hurting a living thing as well.

    Even if it is to yourself.

    Maybe the pressures of acting and constantly being in the spotlight were too much for him to handle so he took drugs to escape for a while. Maybe the place he escaped to was a more idyllic, somewhere where he could just be himself. I'm not saying drugs is the answer to his problems but maybe it was the only way he knew how to cope.

    In that case, he's a sad, pathetic pussy who simply reaped what he sowed.

    I think that's a bit harsh! It's not like the press were going to back off if he asked them too.

    I simply meant that if you're going to depend on drugs to get you out of a self-created hell, you are a pussy and need to develop your own inner strength.

    Nobody's a pussy because they make a simple mistake that ends tragically. I know people who have overdosed, and it does not affect that they were great people. I can't even believe you'de say or believe that.

    If what that other girl was saying was true, then that is what I believe about the given situation. If what she said about his reasons for using drugs wasn't true, then obviously the situation changes. I was responding to her post, not necessarily about what happened, because I don't know much about the guy. But....I would hardly say that having an addiction to drugs and then overdosing is a "simple" mistake.

    Don't worry, it happens. Oh, and you know that time I accidently tried to castrate you in your sleep? Well see, that happened right after I accidently used Chrystal Meth in that cake that I made because I accidently thought it was sugar. So, that whole deal was an accident. Do you forgive me?

    Sure, I liked the Meth... just as much as you liked the jombina (cow sex hormone) I put in your drink the first time we met. (Edit: By accident, ofcourse:))

    Oh I LOVED that shit! You need to get some more, because I don't know how else I can continue sleeping with you without developing nausea, since I don't drink and all...order some more! I might accidently accuse you of rape like I did the last time, but you can just tell the police it was an accident.

    Deal.

    and Nathan, I also go by "God". A bunch of threads are made about me, but I just ignore it... I don't like the over-exposure.

    Oh, yeah.
    I knew you went by the title 'Lord' but that's what I always kept it to.

    i dont care, he made a mistake and he and others obviously paid for it. just because he got caught up in drugs does not mean he wasnt holding stop to his beliefs...also look at the times...and he was only human and got caught up in the wrong things...no matter what River was a very unique soul.

    he is another true story about River. He was on a dat with then girlfriend Martha Plimpton and they were at a resturant...she ordered clams.....she started eating them...River ran out of the resturant and she followed him...he was around the corner and his face covered in tears...she asked him what was wrong and he told her..i love you so much but how could you eat something that had a life...a soul...a living thing...


    River is kickin no matter what!!
