Sinead O'Connor, 56, of unknown causes.

She was a troubled soul with a beautiful haunting voice. I could listen to this track forever:

He will be buried in New York, except for his heart, which will likely be buried in Nob Hill or Pacific Heights.

Notice me - no deit.

Tony Bennet, 96. I had no idea of the breadth of his life experiences, from WWII vet to civil rights' activist.

James Lewis, the dude who very well may have been the Tylenol murderer. I was a sophomore in high school in the Chicago area when this happened and it was absolutely huge. Seven people in the area died. People were terrified to take medicine, there were all sorts of rumors going around. People were freaking the freak out.

I have no idea if he really did it, but at the very least he tried to profit off of it by sending an extortion letter to Johnson & Johnson, so that is enough to make me not overly sad at his passing.

I just read the NYT obit. He had other run-ins with the law and seemed very creepy even if he didn't do this.
