That'll be a q/o, then: https://news.err.ee/1609564195/former-president-of-estonia-arnold-ruutel-passes-away And, this'll be confirmation from the masterlist (now up) that a trio of talent spotters surge upwards by 365 points - Rüütel, Arnold dr, gr, su Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,753 Posted Wednesday at 09:59 Fast 'n' fuckin' furious indeed - as everyone else's deadpool ground into action this is where Deathrace stood on the back of a very productive end to the year Summer in Transylvania - 730 An Fear Beag - 365 Book - 365 DeathByArsenic - 365 Drol - 365 Etushispushingupdaisies - 365 gcreptile - 365 Joltin Joe - 365 LizLemon - 365 The Old Crem - 365 RadGuy - 365 Sean - 365 Thatcher - 365 theoldlady - 365 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,753 Posted Wednesday at 10:08 Oh aye, and...a new feature we'll briefly enjoy until victory is rapidly sealed. Looking at the tonnage of (381) names on the masterlist it might be useful to introduce a few of the - ahem - cult heroes, starting with...Jytte Abildstrøm Danish dame of stage and screen, known to, well...Danes mainly from such unforgettable crowd pleasers as Svend, Knud og Valdemar (1970) and Askepot (1973) and known to her social services as someone already in their nineties. Wikipedia says her "active" years stretch from 1956 to "present" though it offers no evidence of any production since 2012. Maybe the clamour for selfies with her has blocked her route to auditions for the last twelve years, who knows? Oh, and her son is an actor who appeared in Borgen. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,753 Posted Wednesday at 22:47 So, second full day and nowt doing by way of points, then. For all our avid followers here's an alluring snapshot of Lord Monson (who actually has a proper job as a journalist) he's giving it that doe-eyed charm last October in a story suggesting he could have only four months to live. ONE Deathrace team has this hot talent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
