    http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/gossip/val-kilmer-ignoring-tumor-faith-report-article-1.2100542

    "
    Val Kilmer's Christian Science faith is getting in the way of his health, his family reportedly says.
    TMZ reported that Kilmer's kin are worried sick that he has been ignoring a growing a tumor in this throat because followers of Christian Science typically shun medical treatment.

    Sources told the site Kilmer has known about the tumor since the summer, but didn't take any action.

    The 55-year-old "Top Gun" actor over the weekend confirmed reports that he was taken to a hospital recently, but chalked it up to "a complication," not a tumor, word of which he called "silly talk."
    ........agreed to go to the hospital Monday after he began coughing up blood"

  2. In Oz we call it a "trache" (pronounced trackie)

  3. Ah, right. I haven't watched MASH for ages. :p

  4. His best role was clearly a movie with the word 'top' in it. Top Secret.

    Top Gun was his gheyest movie ever.

    Reheated story:

    😄 one of my mate's girlfriends LOVES Top Gun. She even bought a special edition DVD of it; I think the 25th anniversary, with a fancy box. She's got a bit of a 'basic' white bread personality -- not dumb at all, but no evil wit and lock-upable sense of humour, like all of us :p -- so I can see why she likes it.

    For some reason, the topic of the film came up one day, and I was hanging [censored] on it, and said I'd never seen the whole thing. She got a bit offended, assured me that it wasn't that bad, then insisted I borrow her dvd to watch it. So, I soldiered through the [censored] one night, fast-forwarding a lot of it, then got back to her with my "review".

    As i started trying to explain to her why it was [censored], I could see that she was gettin me, and/or simply didn't wanna 'hear' me. I think she wanted us to bond over something, like we did with Lost, so she was disappointed. I thought she'd hate me for ever, so I backed off and humoured her with some [censored] that it had a few good points. The subject has never come up since.

    Eh, [censored] story, but I didn't wanna waste the effort of typing it be deleting it. . ha
