As a child and right up through adulthood I find the Snowman to be anxiety nightmare fuel.

If you want some proper Briggs based nightmare fuel, watch When The Wind Blows.

I'm sure I read something about Briggs being a bit of a banana split but might be misremembering or confusing him with one of the many other "bit dodgy" children's authors that we've produced over the years :dread:

Martial arts legend ‘Judo’ Gene Lebell has passed away aged 89. Often considered the grandfather of MMA for his part in popularising the use of grappling in combat sports he might be best known for the time he choked out Steven Seagal and made him gooseberry fool his pants.

That is why Segal is currently hiding in the Russian held area of Ukraine, he too fricking scared his zombie body will rise and finish the job.

Placeholder for Anne Heche.

She crashed her Mini last Friday, twice. The second time, the car was embedded 30 feet into a house. Her family have now said she is not expected to survive, and is on life support to determine whether her organs are viable for donation.

I would imagine that's dependant on whether they can fish them out of the tree in the garden.

She is being cared for at the Grossman Burn Center

Unfortunate name for a burn centre.

They have to take on extra staff at the end of each January. To cope.

I think it’s been stated she was under the influence of something.
EDIT: That’s what it’s being investigated as.

Yeah, RIP.

Apparently had a really strawberry floated up upbringing and was used/abused in her early days in the industry. Was probably the source of her issues.

I dislike Anne Heche, but have absolutely no idea as to the reason why. :?

It's a shame, she sounds like a really troubled woman, and thankfully she didn't kill anyone else.

It's ironic because it's just about the only type of surgery where you wouldn't need to go Through The Keyhole.
