Another one bites the dust.

So now Amy Winehouse is dead. Before her, at age 27 according to CNN, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Kurt Cobain all died at 27.

I was not a huge fan of her music, but then again I only really heard whatever was on the radio. I have to admit she had an interesting style, and I always dig the throaty-voiced women. Call it jealousy. It's the perfect voice for the 1-800-sex calls, isn't it?

But part of me is irked that she's gone. Lots of talent (hello, winner of 5 Grammys) wasted. Addiction is hard to handle, and I can appreciate that, but there's still a part of me that says, "Idiot". Life is already too short.
