Article in the 2/28/77 edition of the New Yorker Magazine - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Luckymama58 · 11-04-2001, 01:00 AM

I received the latest of my eBay finds at http://content.communities.msn.com/E...wnsgarage.msnw It is a long article by Geraldo Rivera about the life and death of Freddie Prinze. This is a MUST read! Be warned, though... it is a sad one!

BTW I posted the whole article first and then I broke it into columns to make it a little easier to read. It is hard to post things any larger on this site....Thank you, hue_mee for the space to post it! It is in the second of my eBay albums, BTW again!

You're right, the article will have ya reaching for the hankies. I read it & it was sooo sad. I think I went thru several hankies reading it. It's so sad to think he had wanted to die to begin with. From reading it I got the impression that some of the stuff Kathy said in the MIDNITE GLOBE wasn't true. I really learned some stuff from it. What I can't understand is. Why didn't someone tell him NO & take the gun from him & get him help? Why????

It's so sad.

I would've responded on Ed Browns Garage MSN site too but MSN won't let me post on there. It's totally goofing up. Thanks for posting this stuff for us & sharing it with us. I enjoy reading everything about him. Bless his sweet heart...

Great article, Luckymama. Finally, an article with more details than most of what was printed about Freddie. Thanks for sharing....

Yes that article was a tear jerker. Thank you Luckymama for posting it. Your E-bay findings are always welcomed here at Ed Browns Garage in msn. I have posted something about the article so I'm happy to report the message board there is working again.
The new yorker article was a great read. I needed several tissues .

Everyone is so lucky if they could read it. My eyes are so bad.

Could anyone tell me what happened?

Flannelpj's - You're back!!! I'm happy to know that you still come by.....

What I do is I copy it, & I put it in my own personal files, then I sign out of the internet and go back to the files in which I copied it and I press the "ZOOM" button and then I can read it better and at my own leisure. If you have no idea where the Zoom is on your computer "Press the Help key".
