People Who Died sadly now includes Jim Carroll. Dead of a heart attack.

Jim Carroll was awesome. He's one of the few writers where I've read everything they've published.

I gasped last night when I read on the blue that he had passed. I figured he was one of those who would live forever.

Like msali, I thought he'd live forever. I mean, if he made it THIS far...I was pretty sure nothing could kill him.
