But they've been programmed now to believe cross dressing/drag is a deviant threat to Judeo-Christian values or whatever. Feed the GOP base with fear while you pick their pocket and bank on their vote. Same as it ever was. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't as well known as some, and I don't know his music very well but did see him in a club, in the 80's in Seattle, if I recall. He was excellent. There are very few of the jazz legends still alive, sadly. It seems as if we've lost a lot of them within the last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted April 27, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 27, 2023 Actor Peter Martin, 82. Was a regular in Emmerdale and apparently was also in Brassed Off, but arguably best remembered as Joe, the next door neighbour to the Royle Family. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Driving to work and on radio Franksie announces breaking news that Jerry Springer is dead. Look on VT, already been on here 20 minutes. I'm sure some of you have a Grandstand style teleprinter that only updates when someone croaks it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
