Carter just had to steal my “final hours” award. Harrumph!!
Assuming Carter is it, then the award is shared with eighteen people. So there is that.

Remember two or three years ago, when people on a lot of players’ lists were croaking left and right on New Year’s Eve? So far, so good this NYE, hope it stays that way.
And by the way, happy birthday!

You know you just jinxed the whole damn thread, and especially @Baker! Tomorrow I expect to wake up to the news that the Motion Picture & Television Hospital Skilled Nursing Facility burned to the ground
