Daniel Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Do we know what the cause of death is? I feel like there is a lot of speculation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OTB Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Nothing released yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rail Paul Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 This is very sad. 47 is way too early to move on. RIP Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sneakeater Posted May 5, 2015 Author Share Posted May 5, 2015 ADMIN NOTE How about we use this thread for malicious gossip, speculation, etc., and the "Goodbye" thread for heartfelt tributes? Might work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 In recent photos and videos, he seems to be in good shape. He was not obese and I would say, less fat than your average American. I just don't see blaming his death on something until we know what it is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LiquidNY Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I suppose it would be tasteless to make any jokes about the catering of his funeral. Or if he's going to be buried in Brooklyn. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wilfrid Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Times says Josh was last seen in a karaoke bar at 4am. Betting against him working out on a treadmill after that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H. du Bois Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Wow. Much too young, much too soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bloviatrix Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Way too young, to say the least. I know I'm not the only one who automatically had flashbacks to Steven Shaw's passing. My heart goes out to his family. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rail Paul Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 It's interesting how the obituaries focus on Josh's boisterous and rowdy style of writing and of life. I'm sure the first one out the gate influenced the others, but the elements remain the same Quote Link to post Share on other sites
prasantrin Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 What else could the focus be? The general public knows him primarily (only?) because of those things, so would they want to read about anything else in his obituary? (I would, but I'm generally less impressed with or interested in what gives people fame and fortune) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

(I would, but I'm generally less impressed with or interested in what gives people fame and fortune) I dunno. I'm always intrigued to learn things which seem so unexpected about a person. Like an NFL player who relaxes by knitting. Or a classical languages scholar who is also a champion moto-cross rider. That diversity of interests. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lex Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I dunno. I'm always intrigued to learn things which seem so unexpected about a person. Like an NFL player who relaxes by knitting.
