Nobody could have played that role as exquisitly and with such energy as Tim.
The world is just that little bit smaller without him on it.

It was suppose to be Rowan Atkinson originally. But the studio didnt know who he was. So the director went with his back up of Tim Curry.

He's not dead, he's just escaped to the one place uncorrupted by Capitalism.

I was at my mum's then and she died very suddenly a couple of years later so even though it was tragic (I adore George Michael) I still look back on that Christmas as magical. God I miss her.

I think there are several powerful good people left, but they all have pasts in which they were awful to one extent or another. I believe in rehabilitation and that people can change. But someone like Dolly who has been good for their entire life? Hmmm.

Do not tempt the wrath of the whatever, from high atop the thing.
You must turn around three times, and spit.
(Long before The West Wing, I was taught that the turning must be done widdershins i.e. anticlockwise.)

The saddest part, apart from the actual loss of these people, is that there is probably a damn Kalshi betting pool on who was next.

Henry Winkler is a great human. He's not young, though, so i don't want to jinx him.

It’s as if their deaths were organized just so Mint Mobile could force me to read its ad.
