Taken too soon

DEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAADDDD!!!!

Hoping for a 2nd round tie against John Key. I’ve always wanted the opportunity to take that berk down a peg or two. Now, only he and I need to deliver. #KiwiGrudgeMatch

Plus, here are Smith's and Hayden's obits.

Persinger's death confirmed.

He was like the male equivalent of Zsa Zsa seemed able to survive anything and go on forever and he went on 12 years longer than her. Still it was no life at the end, knowone should linger on suffering like he did as it isn’t fair. RIP

That's the time of the mid-point of totality.

Been watching the Griffith Observatory, it's awesome. Meanwhile, it got very dark here, but with the naked eye can't see anything except darkness...tho they say we won't see it until about 5:12.

I expect at his age he has retired from pubic events but I would rather not have to think about it to be honest

Andy Vajna is now missing more than a vowel, but Life itself. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/ap/article-6612327/Hungarian-American-film-producer-Andy-Vajna-died-74.html Responsible for a few Rambo and Terminator films in an impressive career.

I used to disapprove of organ transplants..... But then I had a change of heart.

Your replacement at the #1 slot is noted, but your original selection of ronan keating in the 4 slot cannot be changed since ronan, according to my check of the web, is still among the living.

What Grim said. Luck of the draw. Or no luck of the draw, if yer me! I think Reptile is overdue giving someone a revenge thumping tbh. Some killer ties, yes, but for all we know the new Heef Award winner* is waiting in Round 1 right now as we speak. And so ties not pictured as killer actually will be... Best Newcomer - previous winners Heef, Sir Creep. I think there's also the Most Improved Player, which was Willz in 2018 iirc.

No. There are at least six-seven obits from Sudanese official agencies and they were in contact with him when he was alive, as he was interviewed by them in May 2017. 100% dead this time.

@Deathray (I know you're away right now so I'll be patient) will there be another round of this? I really like this song pool!

I see nothing wrong with him driving again, he had to get behind the wheel quickly to see if he could still do it. Nothing to do with his age, it just had to be done ASAP. If nothing else, it keeps Brexit off the top spot "Journalists: "Brexit will monopolize the front pages for weeks!" Prince Philip: "Hold my beer!""

I didn't watch those either Handy. I liked the cast around her in Happy Valley. I think she is a bit overrated, personally. I'm going to miss Norton in Grantchester, I love that series!

At least one House of Windsor had a fatality this week. Wrong. Fucking. One.

Telegraph and Le Figaro obits both counting for Basset. (that link Joey posted counts as it is indeed the Le Figaro paper, specifically a wine subsection of it) Still no exact date of death for Wilson. For the time being I will be treating him as an earlier death than Basset as that seems the most likely case. So gcreptile receives 45 points for Wilson and 20 for Basset. If we get confirmation Wilson's death was Jan 16 I will award a daily double bonus. The others to pick Basset were: Phantom of the Midway: 50 points CaptainChorizo: 45 points drol: 40 points msc: 25 sub points

Three posts to say that. You post whore!

I'm so angry I can't remember how to write 1, 1000, 51, 6 and 500 in Roman numerals. . . . . . I M LIVID.
