Celebrity Deaths

Sounds like 23andMe is done for.  Years ago Hillbilly Jim sent his sample in.  He was so excited.  Like many mountain folk he is of Scottish and Irish ancestry but was not sure which was the more prominent in his family tree.  He waited weeks for the results to come in and when they finally did so it said like 70% Mexican.  Not Native American/Iberian, not pre-Columbian MesoAmerican or whatever the proper makeup would be for individuals from that part of the world but just "Mexican".   He figured that it was some pink hair messing with him.

DNA database. One could get quite conspiratorial about that. Being adopted I took the plunge back in 2022. Surprised was I to see the results, 92% Irish! Almost fell into my Guinness! The remaining had me as 8% Fuckface. Seemed rather crass and somewhat demeaning, is Fuckface even a race?  Like am I really 8% Fuckface? Argh..

I am afraid to get my DNA done. I have a sibling that made a lot of bad choices in between acting gigs. Plus, there may be some junior 92011s out there I don't want to know the existence of...

Seriously, there's some interesting stories about my mother's lineage... I really don't want to know, my plate is already full.

NeL Peart was, according to her.  Her show was on Evil Keith's network.  @Dyna-X would run into her in the store occasionally.

I have often wondered what became of Dyna-X.  Bright lady who stood her ground and wasn't shy about mixing it up.  She did so without name calling and childishness like some I could name.  We seldom agreed, but I had great respect for her, much like I do for TigerLily.

Agree.  I think she just moved on with her life.

Agree.  I think she just moved on with her life.

The last post I remember from her had something to do with a past life.  I have wondered if she fell victim to COVID.

I think I remember some comments about covid possibly taking a few people here.

No.  I PMed her at the time she left.

Good to know.  Thanks Juan.

Kilmer's daughter, Mercedes Kilmer, confirmed to the New York Times that her father died Tuesday in Los Angeles at the age of 65.

The New York Times, which first reported news of Kilmer's death, reports that Mercedes Kilmer said the cause of death was pneumonia.

Recognized for a variety of roles, Kilmer is also known for his roles in "Top Gun," "Tombstone," "True Romance," and more.

Mercedes Kilmer told the New York Times that her father was diagnosed with throat cancer in 2014 and later recovered.

Is an STD being announced as the reason for his cancer? I know that was speculated back 10 years ago...

Throat and cervical cancers are too common with the Japanese car girls and entertainers. I think it's because HPV opens the door for cancer.
