I don't know, in ROTJ they seem do indicate that she died a year or two after the twins were born, but they never specify how.

CHICAGO, Illinois (CNN) -- Indiana Gov. Frank O'Bannon died Saturday, his spokesman said. The governor was 73. O'Bannon, who was in his seventh year as governor, died at 11:33 a.m. EDT in the neurointensive care unit of Northwestern Memorial Hospital, five days after suffering a massive stroke, according to a written statement from his office. O'Bannon suffered the stroke Monday and has spent the week in critical condition and on life-support in Chicago, where he had been attending a conference. On Wednesday, lawmakers asked Indiana's Supreme Court to declare Lt. Gov. Joe Kernan the state's acting governor after doctors said O'Bannon was incapable of functioning as governor. O'Bannon's condition worsened early Saturday, when swelling of his brain increased, the statement said. His vital signs became unstable, his blood pressure dropped and his heart rate slowed, the statement said. "Based on the governor's living will, First Lady Judy O'Bannon and the family decided to use no further means of support and care and the governor died naturally," the statement said. O'Bannon wished to donate his organs. His body will be taken to Indianapolis on Saturday night. The two-term governor, a Democrat, served from 1989 to 1996 as lieutenant governor under Evan Bayh, now a U.S. senator. He had served the previous 18 years as a state senator from Corydon, representing all or part of eight southern Indiana counties, according to the biography on his Web site. During his early years as a lawyer, O'Bannon also worked at the newspaper his family owns, The Corydon Democrat, shooting photographs, covering general news, writing sports stories and folding the paper's sections for delivery. O'Bannon wrote the newspaper's editorial on John F. Kennedy's assassination. At about 9 a.m. Monday, an aide tried to reach O'Bannon by phone and then by knocking on the door of his room at the Palmer House Hilton Hotel in Chicago. When he got no answer, the aide summoned a hotel security guard, who opened the door and found O'Bannon on the floor of a closet -- unconscious but breathing, said Dr. Patrick Connor, who was working in the emergency room where paramedics brought O'Bannon a few minutes later. Within two hours, O'Bannon was in surgery, Connor said. O'Bannon recently underwent his annual physical, spokeswoman Mary Dieter said. "The doctor pronounced him not only with a clean bill of health, but said he wished he were as healthy." O'Bannon had been in Chicago since Sunday with Kernan to attend the Midwest U.S.-Japan Conference, said Andrew Stoner, the governor's deputy spokesman. This has actually hit rather close to home, because my Dad, who works at the Indiana Statehouse was hired by O'Bannon in 1987. He's been an associate of O'Bannon's ever since, so my Dad's pretty upset. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

You mean one dimensional show about idiot rednecks didn't get great ratings?

Do any of you guys have a pic of Eddy and Art Barr when they were the Lss Gringos Locos? I was curious to see how they looked as a team.
-
Thanks. Man Barr looks so different from his juicer days.

Reminds me of the Austin promo in which Steve tried to figure out the same thing. Austin: Do you like nature? Do you like boys? Wait don't answer that!

Marc Mero kicks ass! Sure Johnny B Bad was awful. Stupid gimmick or not, Mero was a hell of a worker back in WCW. His match against Brian Pillman at Fall Brawl 95 still holds up.

Its funny but not ha-ha funny.

*sigh* No. This country was founded on the belief that there is a creator. As for what creator to worship, the founding fathers left that up to the people to decide for their own. Don't forget the ancestors came over here so they could practice whatever religion they wanted to. *sigh* Wrong. The "all men are created equal... endowed certain unalienable rights" idea IS a Judeo-Christian idea based on Judeo-Christian beliefs in a Judeo-Christian God. Islam certainly isn't interested in equal rights. Neither is Hinduism. And most eastern religions aren't terribly concerned with social issues. To say this country wasn't founded on a Judeo-Christian ethic is ignorant at best. There is a great deal of evidence to suggest that the principals of the United States, especially the democratic ones were created in spite of orthodox Christianity both Protestant and Catholic. A treaty written during George Washington's administration in 1797 clearly stated that "The government the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion." Hell James Madison himself said that whenever "ecclesiastical establshments" had shaped civil society, they had supported political tyranny; and had not protected people's liberties. The fact is both Protestants and Catholic church opposed America''s idea of religious freedom. Catholicsm itself has had a history of opposing personal liberty dating back to their opposition to the Magna Carta. And considering Christianity's history of enslaving and persecuting those who were different and treating them as lower beings, its pretty obvious that interest in equal rights is a fairly recent phenomenon.

New Percy Pringle commentary
BorneAgain replied to Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye's topic in General Wrestling
Wow. I wasn't aware Pingle was so pissed about the company. Though I praise him for speaking his mind, this has got to hurt his chances for a WWE return. I know Hogan and Foley both badmothed the company too and were welcomed back, but Pringle is not a Foley or Hogan level star. I agree with his points though. -
The One and Only Smackdown! HCTP Thread
BorneAgain replied to Insane Bump Machine's topic in Video Games
I have to wonder who's going to replace Hogan and Warrior. Bret and Dynamite Kid maybe? Yeah right, they'll probably stick in the Killer Bees or something. -
Is this a Wrestling Board, or Blind Date? Why can't it be both?
-
Does this mean Anglesault will be complain about Hernandez being misused and demand he be treated seriously?
-
Goldberg will look pretty damn stupid if they do booking #1. Not that I'm complaining...

Ultimo's pretty much the only guy I can think of. edit: But your right Choken, Cena probably might work a little better.
