An update to the earlier story: Gary Coleman’s medical condition has been downgraded from “critical” to “no rush,” as the 42-year-old actor has passed away from a brain hemorrhage.
There will, of course, be plenty of heartfelt remembrances and — I hope — a slowed down, dirge-like rendition of the “Diff’rent Strokes” theme, but this blog has never really been a good place for heartfelt remembrances. For example, the Too Soon Joke of the Week goes to Deux Deux Deux, who wrote:
Isn’t a brain hemorrhage just a diff’rent kind of stroke?
So, ummm… my condolences to his friends and loved ones on this sad day. Sorry about the jokes. It’s how we grieve.

The Gooch pushed him.
he had such a short life
Todd Bridges is looking more and more like a lock for the Diff’rent Strokes tontine.
Now he’ll NEVER know what Willis was talking about.
‘What might be dead for you, may not be dead for some.’

On the bright side, just think of the money they’ll save on his casket.
I regret nothing.
Let me talk to Mr. Kwan.

I still like Charlotte Rae. Todd Bridges might die of overexposure from all the talk shows he’ll be on after this tragic event.
OH MY GOD! It all makes so much sense now! It goes down like this: Dio, Brittany Murphy’s husband, Bret Michaels, Gary Coleman, and Hulk Hogan were on a trip to Paris when Hogan had a vision of the plane exploding and got them all kicked off the flight. Sticking too his plan, Death got Dio and Brittany Murphy’s husband, but Bret managed to cheated death by winning Celebrity Apprentice. This caused Death to skip Bret and move on to Coleman. Simple as that.
I demand a new up. I have a shit ton of Dennis Hopper material.
