Was it Covid, or did he fail a certain someone for the last time?

I enjoyed his roles.

He was Jesus in that misunderstood Sermon on the Mount sketch? The people were too far away and thought they heard, “Blessed are the cheesemakers.”

He may have died “with” COVID, but I’m pretty sure he died “from” being strangled by Darth Vader’s mind.

Dying at 87 is nothing to be choked up about.

He fell, got Covid, got pneumonia and it is due to Covid, not improper sanitation.

More medical misadventure. He would have been better to stay at home with his arm in a sling.

Great line: “Our first catch of the day” but instead of a spaceship, they catch a huge energy beam.

Well, obviously it’s not meant to be taken literally, it refers to any manufacturers of dairy products....

Maybe. If he did, I hope he went knowing his apology was accepted.

I wonder if an actor like him (not at all a big name, but in a hugely popular movie) would get recognized on the street?

And for “Covid”....the CDC is hiding the fact that a little bit of Ivermectin probably would have saved his life!

My child brought home COVID earlier this year, passed it to me.

Turned into pneumonia and I had to go to the hospital for it.

Covid ravaged my lungs back in 2020. Each subsequent infection causes additional scarring. Now Stage 2 COPD. When I go out into groups, I have to wear the N95 mask. Hate them, but hate the hospital bills even more.

So the hospital killed him due to poor sanitation.

If you can catch COVID in a hospital, supposedly a sanitized setting, what good is a mask or any other fascist dicate going to do to “slow the spread”?
