Basically, almost the opposite in every way to Hunter S. Thompson, Sandra Dee the star of 'Gidget' and 'Tammy and the Doctor' died this morning.

62 is rather young to die...

She died of complications from kidney disease after nearly two weeks in the hospital, said Steve Blauner, a longtime family friend who represents Darin's estate. Blauner said Dee had been on dialysis for about four years.


I guess a kidney transplant was out of the question...

Well, she was on the 2005 Dead Pool List along with the emperor Akihito.
