Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baksteen 84 #29 January 8, 2016 Oh, right.. "stars". I thought this was something interesting, such as actual stars, viz. the huge balls of burning matter floating around in nothing. But I'll play: wolfriverjoeI know it's just a silly superstition, but famous people seem to die in "threes" (along with a lot of other things). nolhtairt I'd be shocked if the 3rd person to croak has a "Lemmy/Lemon" type of name too...

I heard on NPR that he didn't want to play Prof Snape in the Harry Potter films because he felt the character was too shallow. He agreed after JK Rowling told him the "rest of the story", long before the rest of the world knew."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."
