This news will be really disturbing to urgeok........give him support people.



A former drummer for the Swedish pop band ABBA has been found dead in the garden of his house on the island of Majorca.

Ola Brunkert, 62, is believed to have been the only session musician to have appeared on all the group's recordings.

A police spokeswoman said an autopsy was being carried out but investigations indicated the death was an accident and no foul play is suspected.

She said a neighbour found Mr Brunkert's body on Sunday in the garden of his house in the town of Arta.

Police believe he fell and cut his neck indoors. He then apparently tried to leave the house to seek help but collapsed in the garden.

Didn't he try to spread a rumor before... or change wiki or something just to see if he could get a fake death into mainstream news? Maybe I'm thinking about somebody else.

Ah well, too bad there's no chance of an ABBA reunion. ;)

Ha, Don Vito. I remember that...got the edited page up for all of about 10 minutes before some rabid fanboy sold me out, I guess.
Not so much to get into mainstream news, I think I just did it to do it.
Also, Phil Fucking Collins was something I saw on a shirt, I liked it, and couldn't think of where else to put something about a phil collins shirt, so, I made him die for a while?

R.I.P.


Anthony Minghella, the Oscar-winning director and writer of “The English Patient,” has died suddenly. He was 54.

A spokesman said he suffered a brain hemorrhage at 5 a.m. Tuesday morning at Charing Cross Hospital in London, where he had undergone a routine operation on his neck.

Minghella most recently directed the BBC/HBO telepic “No 1 Ladies Detective Agency,” based on Alexander McCall Smith’s novel set in Botswana, which is due to premiere March 23 on BBC1.

His last movie was “Breaking and Entering.” His other credits include “Cold Mountain,” “The Talented Mr Ripley” and “Truly Madly Deeply

He recently stepped down as chairman of the British Film Institute. He was a partner with Sydney Pollack in Mirage Enterprises.

R.I.P. to Minghella.

It's a shame because he was in my eyes very young.
