To Sleep, Perchance, To Dream
Did Heath Ledger dream before he died?
It's a morbid question, but one answered by this "Explainer" in Slate....
Meanwhile, Fox's John Gibson defends his joking about Ledger in the hours after Ledger's death by saying, "There's no point in passing up a good joke...." ¶ 6:59 AM

Unlike John Gibson I regret making my little joke. I didn't really even know who the guy was so it didn't register properly.

sigh... if only michelle tsai had a: talked to a psychopharmacologist, and b: had a fact checker to read her copy to make sure it didn't contradict police reports about which drugs, exactly, were in ledger's apartment.
do you have any idea how much valium/librium/ambien, etc., it takes to overdose? enough so that the likelihood of doing so by taking just a few more pills than normal is statistically low. using these kinds of drugs, without adding others, like alcohol, to the mix just makes you sleep for a very long time.
i'm going to hazard a guess that his pneumonia caused an already undiagnosed enlargement of the heart to get even better. boom, cardiac arrythmia.
it would be nice if everyone stopped their conjecture about how he died and took that energy to fight off those evil picketers who'll be screaming "god hates fags" in front of frank e. campbell

I had the one of the worst, most vivid, nightmares I've ever had courtesy of a single ambien on a flight from Rome to New York a few months ago. In the dream, I'm served a large bowl of what looks like black spaghetti. As the bowl is put in front of me, I see its full of thick black worms -- that are ALIVE and MOVING. Yuccckkkk!
Not sure I'm going to take an ambien again.

I have to say - what is so great about your heading is that this is part of Hamlet's "To be or not to be" soliloquy and it reveals his thoughts of suicide and death. Good triple entendre...very apropos -
To die, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause: there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life;....... - Hamlet
And SE- even good people have their moments of mild sociopathy. No doubt. But John Gibson.....he's still breathing, but he's obviously dead inside.
eayny
