I like the mushy stuff .. what can I say!! LOL
    I know what ya mean about the ending of Stand By Me. Wonder why him and Martha Plimpton broke up. She was odd lookin but i thought they made a cute couple. Well so did him and Samantha,so never mind.

    I always liked Martha ... she was my favorite character on The Goonies .. LOL and I loved her on The Mosquito Coast with River too .. I can't recall why they actually broke up, but I think I remember reading somewhere they stayed really good friends .. and talked all the time .. he would call her up when he was having "girl" issues, etc ..

    Did she ever speak about River's death?

    Hmmmm .. good question .. I used to spend a lot of time at the River site "Rios Attic" a while back, but I never came across anything .. that place just got way too weird for me though .. I will have to look up some stuff now!! I am curious .. I just know she had said stuff like that about how they were still close up until he died .. I bet Martha was heartbroken just the same!!

    Ah ha .. this was on Wiki about Martha and River:

    "Their relationship later ended due to Plimpton's objection to his recreational drug use, which claimed his life in 1993."

    Per imdb, he died 11 days before filming was completed, but apparently there was still a lot of missing footage and the movie was scrapped. The director owns the footage and said he might one day use it to do a documentary on River. There are some short clips from the movie on youtube, but I haven't seen them and I'm not sure where they came from.

    I hope the director does do a documentary.

    I went to Gainesville again this weekend and got another picture with what I think is River's ghost. This one was outside of a bar that his band used to play at - it has a different name now, but is the same building. I had a feeling I would capture something here, and I did. It isn't an orb or anything...it is a real image. I will try to post it if I can - but it has to magnified a little or you can't really see the image. Freaky. The last ghost picture I got of him was totally recognizable...both my sister and my mom saw his image in the pic right away. Which is awesome because I thought I was losing my mind at first! I wasn't sure if I should share because the pictures are extremely special to me, but I am just really excited.

    One was on my phone so I have to figure out how to get it on here, and I just tried to upload the one from this past weekend,but it doesn't work because it needs to be blown up a lot. It just looks grainy and pixel-y when I try to make it bigger. If I upload it as a regular size picture you guys won't see the image since it is in the background. I am bad with all of this uploading stuff, maybe my husband can help me or something!

    If it's the same site I used to visit, it was once called Alecka's Attic and it was awesome, but now it's the pits. Weird, as you say. It even has River's linage on a historic timeline.

    Oh, and something I was thinking of the other day .. is it "odd" that I am 30 years old and still watch "Stand by Me" and think River was a cutie? I mean, I was 10 when I first saw that movie and had a crush on him then .. and I still watch his movies when he was young and think what a hottie!! LOL Just don't want people thinking I have any weird Pedo tendancies!! LMAO!! I know I am not the only one who thinks this way, just thought it was funny!! Okay, I'll shut up now!!
    I watched it recently and still think he's hot in it. I watched part of some stupid movie Christian Bale was in when he was a teenager and was thinking the same thing... lol. Both are (would be) older than me.

    Flea was, don't know about Al. I thought the rumor was that Flea sold him the shit that killed him.

    Cindy, that could be the one .. I just thought it was Rio's Attic .. I know his band was Alecka's Attic .. but I could be wrong! And yes, it was weird .. talk about really overly obsessed people, but to each his own!

    Flea was, don't know about Al. I thought the rumor was that Flea sold him the shit that killed him.

    Hahahahaha .. I think the same thing too about Christian Bale .. I was 13 when I saw "Empire of the Sun" and that's when I became a CB fan!! And I still think he is a cutie when I watch that movie (even though he is 13 in it.. LOL) but thats how old he was when I first saw him, so the memory stays!

    And I do think Flea was there .. I don't remember hearing about Al though ..

    PS .. I just figured out how to multi-quote!! Go me!! LOL

    Oh, and I would love to see the pictures too if possible!! I know when I have photos on my phone, I just send them to my email, instead of a text message and then save them to my computer! Those pictures must be something!

    Yeah! I think LSF and I have done a great job at doing that!! LOL ..

    So, staying on the topic of River, and sorry if this has been discussed before, what are some favorite lines from movies, or scenes?

    Oh, I have tons .. but I think my favorites are:

    Running on Empty - I love the part when he goes to Lorna's (Martha Plimpton) bedroom to wake her up to spill his secret .. and then just how sweet he sounds and when he tells her he loves her .. and then the "get it on" .. LOL

    Stand by Me - I love, love, love the look on his face and the way he says, "Not if I see you first" at the end before he fades away .. *tear* ..

    Read it when I was 12.. I love the part at the end when his family is reminiscing about him and something falls over and breaks, they knew it was River.

    Happy early birthday, River!!! I love you, angel. It's almost unreal.



    Maybe I can get one of the pictures that I have up on his b-day. I am still skeptical about putting it all out there, though. They just mean so much to me and I don't know if I want them floating around the internet, know what I mean? I just want you guys to know that I'm not full of crap about these pics, they are just very special to me.

    For those of you who get HBO, they will be showing "The Thing Called Love" at various times, today. (August 29th.)

    I miss River Phoenix. I thought he was very talented. I've seen Stand By Me and The Thing Called Love, but I haven't seen any of his other films. Joaquin has made a big name for himself. I'm sure his brother would be proud.

    I especially enjoyed Running on Empty. He was so gorgeous and such a talent, it's sad he wasted his short life on drugs. I hate it so, I do. I hate drugs and I hate the people who sell them (I'm not talking about weed here.) It's the hard stuff. Sell it and you are selling misery and death.

    All of River's movies are painfully hard for me to watch.

    But particularly The Thing Called Love.

    Hearing him sing with that wonderful voice he had breaks my heart.

    He looks nothing like Joaquin. Do they have different fathers?

    Nope. They have the same parents. River looks more to me like his mom and Joaquin favors his dad.

    Having money is a death sentence for many people because all it means is they can purchase unlimited quantities of drugs.

    I can see how that can happen. If I had tons of money,i'd be very tempted to spend it all on blow or cute little puppies

    it wasnt unlimited quantities of drugs that did him in it was one potent fix.
