:Look bub, it's composed well, shows his face, etc etc. No reason to remove it other than your inability to comprehend that people don't continue to look like they're 40 when they're pushing 60. Hell, he turns 60 on the 2nd!

Impaired?

Under "Personal life" was stated, "On April 2, 2001, Syme was killed when her vehicle collided with three parked cars on Cahuenga Boulevard in Los Angeles. Syme was impaired, and also not belted in." I changed "was" to "had been" to clarify the chronology. When I first read it, I said to myself, yes, being killed impairs a person. I also changed "impaired" to "under the influence," because the latter term is clearer. But there is a bigger problem here, which I am not going to attempt to fix.

Jennifer Syme, in the section on her death, uses the word "intoxicated," but its source, which is different from the two in Keanu Reeves, also does not support that claim. The source mentions a lawsuit brought against someone who allegedly gave Syme drugs that led to her car crash. Maurice Magnus (talk) 00:52, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
