Whitney Houston, August 9, 1963 – February 11, 2012

We can speculate, and most of us probably already are. Whitney Houston’s excesses and over-the-top lifestyle were her cultural calling-cards for the latter part of her career.

Did they lead to her death? That question will probably be answered in a few days, so I see no need to dwell on it now. The how and why of her passing pale in comparison to the when. She was only 48, and that’s far too young to go.

RIP Whitney Houston, and thanks for the music.
