BrunoBrimley 86 Posted January 1, 2015 I think you want us all to slap you up side your head and congratulate you. Sometimes people get lucky. Imagine if you will if we'd had the internet back in 1960 when Margaret Sullavan died on the 1st of January after swallowing a few too many pills. Why if deathlist had selected her, they'd have been off to a darned good start. So, congratulations and may you have a few more successes as the year rolls on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aye, the lack of attention to detail around here can drive you mad. I started Deadio Times so's we could all tip each other about forthcoming tv and radio gold; but it's been overrun by others posting the deaths of minor television stars. Rant over! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
