If a person celebrates (say...their birthday) almost a month early, a magazine makes a huge deal about you for no other reason that you are old and famous, then a media blitz ensues.....

Perhaps we shouldn't count chickens before they hatch.

I don't have proof, but maybe I do, that if you draw attention to yourself for your birthday....early, Karma just might not let your birthday happen.

Disclaimer: I love Betty White and have been a fan for years. As soon as I saw her on the news talking about the write up in People magazine about her upcoming birthday, I thought to myself, "How terrible would it be, after all this hoopla, if something happened....." Then it did.

Her agent said she died in her sleep from natural causes. Let's see if they go in to more detail at a later date.

PS I really doubt it was her idea, her stupid publicist/agent probably had that 'bright' idea and she went along w it.

That's an untrue rumor. Read about it on a reputable website. You'll see.

I don't have proof of it, but they tell me King Rudi was banned?

Then again, I don't see "banned" underneath his name, so I'm not sure. If he was banned, I hope Lady Jane was also banned too in order to restore balance to these forums. Otherwise she'll just find someone else to pick on I'm sure. Probably be me lol.

Does anyone know why he was banned? His inbox is full so I can't PM him.

People can be banned from certain sections but not receive an entire site ban.

LJ said tomorrow was her last day on the forum, she’s likely leaving before any of the aforementioned happens.

The thing is, the agent was very specific saying she didn't have the shot x days (3?) before her death so therefore she didn't die due to that, but didn't say if she got the booster or not. So, that statement can be framed in any way. Anyway...

This whole thing is revolting no matter what side ppl are on, they made it political from Day 1 when it should have been all hands on deck regardless of nationality/ethnicity/etc.

I've been in contact with him. He is banned from posting in the OT sections. He can still "appreciate" and view posts here but cant comment. No explanation was given to him for how long or why he was banned from OT. Same with Tim. There's a common denominator here that's pretty clear.

I think someone got confused as to why there were no white knights rushing to their rescue, purposefully ignored the implications of that, and decided to white knight themselves and rush to their own rescue.

That's my theory anyways.

Thats a damn shame. Maybe we should start a poll on who stays vs who goes? We all interact with each other so shouldn't we get a say of who we would rather see more? But then again these days you just get told what you should do and abide without question.

Yup, it's insane what's going on and I'm not a 'Ma freedomz' kinda guy but it's crazy POOF ppl just dropping off, the heightened levels of sensitivity/(self)censorship. Not even a chance for a reasonable dialogue, just YOU'RE OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Worse than a power-tripping baseball ump lol.
