Dear Human Beings:

Today is January 15, 2016 and below for your independent, objective, and thoughtful review, is a list of, quote, unquote, "FAMOUS" people, who have now, "DIED" since January 01, 2016 and this list is only going to continue to grow because as I told each and every one of, "YOU" back on January 01, 2016, my, "FATHER" who is the, "CREATOR" no longer cares about any of us as, "HUMAN BEINGS" simply because we as human beings no longer care about each, "OTHER" and/or our own, "CREATOR" for that matter, and as long as human beings continue to look up to, as well as, "WORSHIP" Satan, along with all of his other famous and/or, "RICH" human beings, the, "ANGEL OF DEATH" is going to continue bringing all human beings back to, "MEET YOUR MAKERS" so by all means just keep on, "IGNORING" me, simply because, "TIME" as well as, "DEATH" waits for no, "ONE" and in the words of the Buddha, "THE TROUBLE IS, YOU THINK YOU HAVE TIME" but in 2016, your, "TIME" may now be, "UP" especially if you have now been spending all of your earthly, "TIME" being, "DOWN" with a high heel wearing, transgender, "DEMON" like Satan....
