Funny how a guy like Owen Wilson attempts suicide,

[Swede]

when he seems to have the world in his hands.

1. Has anyone confirmed it was a suicide attempt?

We have the word of the tabloids. Has there been an official release on it?

2. Depression doesn't respect wealth or fame

or any boundaries.

3. reminds me of that poem Richard Cory

RICHARD CORY


Whenever Richard Cory went down town,
We people on the pavement looked at him:
He was a gentleman from sole to crown,
Clean favored and imperially slim.


And he was always quietly arrayed,
And he was always human when he talked;
But still he fluttered pulses when he said,


"Good morning,"
And he glittered when he walked.

And he was rich, yes richer than a king,
And admirably schooled in every grace:
In fine, we thought that he was everything
To make us wish we were in his place.


So on we worked, and waited for the light,
And went without the meat and cursed the bread;
And Richard Cory one calm summer night,
Went home and put a bullet through his head

6. Hadn't ever read that.

Thanks for posting it.

4. I don't think the suicide attempt has been confirmed yet

at this point, it's all just speculation about why he was in the hospital.

But if it's true, then that's a sad story, indeed.

7. *insert substance here* is a hell of a drug...
