"All those who see unworthiness when they look at me and are given thereby to denying me value — to you I say, 'I'm not talking about being as good as you. I hereby declare myself better than you,'" he wrote in his memoir, The Measure of a Man, published in 2000. But even in his prime he was criticised for being out of touch. He was called an Uncle Tom and a "million-dollar shoeshine boy". In 1967, The New York Times published Black playwright Clifford Mason's essay, "Why Does White America Love Sidney Poitier So?" Mason dismissed Poitier's films as "a schizophrenic flight from historical fact" and the actor as a pawn for the "white man's sense of what's wrong with the world." |

As he said to his father, in Guess Who's Coming To Dinner: "You think of yourself as a coloured man. I think of myself as a man."
He was an inspirational man.

Marilyn Bergman, lyricist (with her husband Alan) of such great songs, as The Way We Were, Pieces of Dreams, and What Are You Doing The Rest of Your Life?
Also a lot of tv themes. |

I have just seen that Australian golfer Bob Shearer has died aged 73.
I remember a few sports events in my childhood, Dick Johnson's blue ford being stopped by a rock when he was in front at Mt Panorama, the Parramatta Eels first premiership in 1981 against Newtown, the Australian team winning the 100m freestyle relay in Moscow and of course Australia 2's win off Rhode Island against Dennis Conner, and the Australians victory over Sweden in the Davis Cup at Kooyong (the Pat Cash Michael Pernfors match is one of the best tennis matches I have ever seen), I think 1983 or 84, but Bob Shearers win in the 1982 Australian Open where he beat Jack Nicklaus with one of the best final rounds I have seen has to be right up there. I understand his wife Kathie is the meet and greet lady at the Australian Open for all the media and players, and so I would like to send my condolences to her and the family.

One that has drawn little attention and will be on no lists but sad that the 17yo son of Sinead O'Connor chose to end his own life.

Comedian Bob Saget, who shot to fame in sitcom Full House before cementing his place on American TVs with Funniest Home Videos, has died aged 65.
He was found unresponsive in a hotel room in Orlando, Florida on Sunday local time. "The man was identified as Robert Saget and pronounced deceased on scene," the Orange County Sheriff's Department said. "Detectives found no signs of foul play or drug use in this case." Police did not say more about how he died however it appeared to be sudden, as he had been performing on stage in Florida hours before his death. |

Just like Betty White; the anti-vax mob are claiming the jab killed him.

So anyone who dies of covid is suspected of dying of something else but anyone who dies without it's because of the jab? I just want to hide sometimes the world is getting to be such a sad place.

Yes I know that, hasn’t stopped them from trying to claim it though. It’s so messed up.

Just accept the fact that anyone who dies, even if they are 110 years old, will have died of corona. Or the jab.  |

before the "vax kills" brigade come on and claim her...
Her brother, Jeremy, took to Facebook on Monday to announce the sad news to Miranda's friends and followers. "I am writing with the saddest of news. Last Thursday, around midday, MJ passed away. "It was completely unexpected, we are yet to know for sure what the cause was, but with our family history, it looks like her heart failed during her sleep. She went peacefully." |

It's just the best possible example for those who'll say vaccines kill - 34 y/o dies of heart failure in her sleep! With a family history too! https://www.coronavirus.vic.gov.au/cardiac-side-effects-and-covid-19 |
