AA in the bedroom dept - I'd take that in my QO. Although I'm going to downgrade myself now by asking what is the difference between performing and delivering in said department? 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think delivering is more geared towards the happy orgasmic climax and performing is being very good at creating an enjoyable bump n grind journey leading up to the happy conclusion...! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Belafonte’s career spun decades and that’s the best picture they can source?! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted April 25, 2023 These are in the back of my truck right now. Yes, they’ve been back there a while (I was going to unload them), but since the dug liked calypso, they stayed under the seat. RIP Mr Belafonte 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lafaucheuse 4,051 Posted April 26, 2023 9 hours ago, Summer in Transylvania said: Rest in Peace Harry. It may be worth noting, if it hasn't been already, that he died of Heart Failure, the same thing his friend Sidney "Potter" Poitier died of. By complete coincidence, I was discussing the above mentioned Only Fools and Horses sketch with a friend earlier today, completely oblivious to the fact that Belafonte had died. I was discussing that same sketch with that same friend the day Poitier's death was announced. Interesting story ! Were you talking about this before both deaths were announced ? I remember a few coincidences about deaths, one of which being me telling a friend that Kirk Douglas would die within a week. He was annouced dead the next morning. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't be 100% sure that they hadn't been announced by the time of the discussion, but neither myself nor my friend were aware of their deaths until afterwards. Another one is that back in September I predicted that Ryuichi Sakamoto would die in March 2023. Had Carter noy entered hospice in February, or had he died beforehand, I would have (correctly) voted Sakamoto in the Next Death poll. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
