They're All Dying Young

After Warren Zevon and John Ritter, one could have hoped for a break in shockingly young deaths of entertainment stars. But today Robert Palmer died of a heart attack in Paris.

Another personal favorite, Palmer combined R&B, rock and island reggae into a unique, classy style, with hits such as "Simply Irresistible." He was only 54, but lived hard. So I guess I need to look out for myself in six years or so. Ah, the anxiety of aging strikes close to home at moments like these.
