Heath Ledger found dead (not a joke)

It came up on my radio that the NYPD has reported that Heath Ledger was found dead in his Manhattan Apartment by his housekeeper.

Kind of puts a different spin on the Batman film don't it?

I will always enjoy his performance in 10 things I hate about you and A Knights Tale.

He was 28 years old and at the top of his game.

I am stunned.

The news articles say "pills were found near him."

Maybe he had a congenital heart condition or something. BUT, I'm afraid that, with young actors, a surprise death is usually drug-related.
