The MSM are starting to drop the A word with the world's worst kept secret-

Still there's no shortage of gaybos thrust on our screens these days. So much so it may soon become compulsory if our elites can wangle it.

Theres been quite a few big names this year

David Bowie. Gene Wilder, and Mohammad Ali would have to be the biggest

One year today since Stevie Wright fell off the perch too.

I reckon Jon English was the biggest surprise death during the year.

I can't believe I haven't had any funny texts about this. The Michael Jackson ones came through before I even got out of bed.

On a funny note, the Irish lady that lives at the back of my inlaws spent yesterday crying and drowning her sorrows about this. Then pulled herself together and came over for a Christmas drink. While here she started tearing up about it again & said she still can't come to terms with Boy George dying. We couldn't do anything but laugh & let her know it was a different pommy poof called George.

Listo, Your Irish Lady might have been talking/listening to Sarah Michelle Geller.

And another one.  Vera Rubin deserved a Nobel prize for her work on dark matter, but missed out.   

Funny how we make a fuss about the musicians, but ignore the smart people.

She was just on TV on the Adam Hills Last Leg program, along with her dog.
Don't know if it was the last job before the flight home, but she seemed ok.
