This past year I haven't been as active on TV.com as I use to be. I've done practically everything I've wanted to do on this site and now I've decided to retire from a whole slew of guides to make way for people that come here more often than I do.

Heath Ledger was found dead in his apartment in New York Cityearly this morning. It was reported that a masseuse knocked on the door for an appointment withhim, but when no one answered, a housekeeper opened the door and found him unconscious. They shook him but when he did not respond, they called the authorities. No foul play is suspected. They found pills near his body.

Heath was 28 years old and leaves behind a 2 years old daughter, Matilda Rose.

HEATH LEDGER
1979 - 2008

Heath was one of my most favorite actors and it's so sad to hear what happened to him. I was devastated whenI heard the news and I didn't even believe that something like this could happen to a man like Heath. I will miss him dearly and my condolences to him family.

Last week my school sent home a letter talking about all the valuable paintings the school board had just discovered laying around in their schools. One of the most valuable being the one found at my school.

A board member realized that some of the schoolsin my district had some very lovely looking paintings, so he decided to look into it to see what they wereworth. Turns out some of them were worth millions of dollars. They combed all the schools looking for vaulable painting and then they stumbled into my school where they found a painting, about the size of 2 (8.5" x 11") sheets of paper in the Principal's Office.

The painting was merely propped up against the wall on top of a drawer and was painted by one of the members of the Group of Seven, a famous group of painters from Canada, named Tom Thomson.

The story of how our school came in possession of the painting says that a teacher from the school had bought itfrom Tom Thomson while he was travelling in Algonquin Park and donated to the school. Long behold 2007 comes strolling around the painting ends up being worth $1.5 - $2.0 million dollars. Another big find was in a school auditorium. It turns out the walls were lined with paintings from a famous painter and added all together, the paintings are worth $5 - $10 million dollars.

However, these paintings have since been removed and have been placed in an air tight, high security vault until they find out what they want to do with it.

In the wake of the Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike, I have learned that Lost may be reduced to 8 episodes! This is terrible news considering they've already reduced it to, if I can remember correctly, about 12 episodes. I thought this would all blow over in a few weeks and that most shows wouldn't have suffered too muchbecause they already have 4 or 5 episodes on hand. But I also learned today that the last strike WGA strike in 1988 lasted 22 WEEKS!

Although I will miss my shows, I do support the WGA strike. I always thought that writers never got a large enough piece of the pie. Without writers, there would be no show. With terrible writing, there would be no show. Shows depend so much on writers, but they treat them like !@#$.

Networks should give them what they want because they work so hard and don't get enough credit as is. Besides they make so much profit from DVD sales anyways that it should only be fair.

Eight episodes doesn't even constitute as a season.

NEW GUIDES:

James Lafferty: One Tree Hill

I've been busily study for tests and doing homework that I have not had much time to come on to TV.com. However, I have managed to receive 3 new guides this week after a user retired from them.

This week I became the editor for Brandon Routh (Superman in Superman Returns), Hayden Christensen (Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars), and Jim Carrey (Grinch in How the Grinch Stole Christmas).
