Actor Bruce Willis was kicked out of a pharmacy for refusing to wear a mask. Very disappointed to read somethinig like that, cause I appreciate his work. If he should notoriously continue to refuse, it is only a matter of time until he becomes infected. At 65 years he belongs to the risk group. Lets see..... https://screenrant.com/die-hard-bruce-willis-mask-jokes/

Thoughts and Opinions on the 2021 Deathlist
TomTomTelekom replied to Charles De Gaulle's topic in DeathList Forum
Yes, I can remember two hits in a single day. Robin Gibb (Bee Gees) and the Lockerbie-Bomber Al-Megrahi (both on the list in 2012) died on the same day. -
Thoughts and Opinions on the 2021 Deathlist
TomTomTelekom replied to Charles De Gaulle's topic in DeathList Forum
I had my first hit on January 21st last year (Terry Jones). At the end of the year my shadow-list reached 22 hits. So far...everything is okay at the moment. Btw you cant set a new record every year, that becomes impossible at some point and the benchmark from last year (20 hits) is already very high. so I think 15 hits should be realistic and reachable for this year. -
