His wife Rosalynn Carter is 92 years today She should also been included next years list.

SEPTEMBER After Marquez, the HPDP really slows down. YoungWillz proved astute with picking the hirsute Burt Reynolds. The Bandit going up in smokey gets 25 sub points for Willz and finally puts him on the board. Sir Creep landed a unique hit with Kulsoom Nawaz on September 11, getting 20 base points and 8 bonus points for 28 in total. Another surprise unique hit comes on September 19 in the form of Denis Norden. Take It From Here, LFN, you get 25 base points and 10 bonus points for 35 in all. OCTOBER DDT finally gets his first hit on October 30 with Buddhist teacher Sangharakshita. Also a sexual creep, so whatever he gets reincarnated as probably won't be all that illustrious. Either way, DDT gets 15 base points and 6 unique bonus points for 21 total thanks to Sangharakshita going down the shitta. NOVEMBER Though Devin Lima's November 21 death was a gamechanger in the DDP, over at the HPDP it just reinforced what was already happening. Only Dead Cow picked him here, and as a sub, so he adds an extra 25 points of padding. (fun fact: LFO appeared on one of the later versions of Hollywood Squares, so Lima's a very rare instance of a DDP Drop 40 hit to be on Hollywood Squares that was only picked on the bonusless subs bench here!) The last biggie to fall in 2018 was none other than George H. W. Bush on November 30. Bit of a tricky one to judge the bonuses for. There is a US President bonus but it says it's for recent or incumbent US Presidents. And Bush were out of office for 25 years when he died, which isn't all that recent at this point. I also don't see him falling under the crimes against humanity blanket (Dubya a different story, but he's not the one I'm totting up bonuses for...). So as it stands, read my lips, no bonuses for Bush. As for his 7 HPDP voters: deadsox gets 40 points. Exu, time, Toast, and Wormfarmer 30. FixedBusiness 20. and msc 15. DECEMBER Though there was only one December hit, it still carried significance to the HPDP in terms of history, that being the second loss of a forumer's "mascot". DDT is one of the few around to have a perfect HPDP attendance record (with Ali inactive, I think it's just him and mpfc?), and from the pool's inception up until her December 26 death, he had persistently picked art nun Sister Wendy Beckett. Like a DL without Dunn, me without Foray, and msc without Lady Wilson, it's not quite the same having DDT enter a HPDP team without her. Spade still does have his Glynis though. Either way, DDT receives 40 basic points and 16 bonus points for 56 total. I'll throw in an extra 1.3 points as well, or one tenth of a point for each year he picked her. Scoreboard for up to the end of the year. As mentioned previously, I will wait another week to allow for any missed bonuses to be sorted out. Then the 13th place (if the scoreboard stays as is, I'm just gonna treat both =12th place teams as 13th...) and interesting team bonus. So if you have any shock evidence Vanessa Marquez was a baseball player, which would drop Cow from the lead to negative points, speak before MIDNIGHT GMT ON AUGUST 25 or forever hold your peace: 1. The Dead Cow 425 2. RadGuy 267.3 3. CaptainChorizo 259 4. Uschi 245 5. deadsox 225 6. time 198.5 7. Death Impends 197.1 8. FixedBusiness 185 9. msc 181 10. Sean 172.4 11.

Cedric Benson, an all-American at the University of Texas and a former player with Chicago and Cincinnati, has died.

Re Michael Bolton, not only that but he was supposed to be headlining Rewind Festival in Henley today. (One of the many reasons why I didn't go this year!) They only announced this morning that he wouldn't be appearing, despite assuring festival goers (who have been asking since Thursday) that he would. Been replaced by Mike Scott aka The Waterboys, who would be more to my taste, but frankly not a headline act. The whole line-up is poor, not to say there aren't some decent acts but too much repetition. The Saturday headliner was the Four Tops (or if we are being honest, the One Top), not exactly a name that springs to mind for an 80s music festival.

Hmm, weird. How about this one?

To my knowledge, Kevin Roster did not receive a QO for this pool.

Kathleen Blanco dead: https://eu.thenewsstar.com/story/news/2019/08/18/kathleen-blanco-dies-former-louisiana-governor-cancer/1260178001/

The editor who added Echeverria to the Recent Deaths page on Wiki also caused death by Wiki for Kirk Douglas a few months ago, somehow being under the impression that an A-list superstar died with little fanfare in 2017. And his source for Echeverria's death was a fake newspaper generator (not a fake article about Echeverria's death - the link was literally the generator itself) so yeah, he ain't dead.

Yeah. But all said and done. You would. Wouldn't you?

FYI, that video was uploaded to youtube three years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JWKXI8nEOQ

94 on Thursday. Nobody has heard from her in almost 4 years. Last starring role or interview was 2015, last time her website was updated was 2015, and last time she was photographed out in public was also 2015. I read a rumour online somewhere that she was very ill after a sudden turn. One to keep on the list if she makes it to 2020.

Trending on Twitter as someone has recorded him singing in a restaurant https://mobile.twitter.com/eliistender10/status/1162998812249640960 On this evidence, far from convinced that he should be included next year.

Out of those three I would say Kirk Douglas then Norman Lloyd and finally Olivia de Havilland.

Yay, I get the wooden spoon.

Easily done. For instance, I forgot my three picks were the healthiest cunts in the world.

Forgot I had him here lol

Gives the man a medal for trying to defend his property. The scumbags should not have been terrorising him for weeks/months

Peter Fonda another Hollywierd guy who gave nothing of value to the world (accept maybe his kids depending on their way they live their lives).Born into a life of privilege and got a job because of who his dad was.He decided to use he lucky position to promote degeneracy instead of positivity and helpful messages. He is best known for one degenerate drug movie glamourising drugs, drug dealing and the Cheapening of life. Indirectly make no mistake about it that movie contributed to alot of drug related deaths and ruined lives through drug use. Add to that wanting Donald Trump's 11 year old son locked in a cage with pedos simply for being the child of someone he didn't like and wanting women in the Trump administration stripped naked and beaten you can see the dark thoughts that must of polluted his mind. Not to mention his alleged connections to Epstein! I hope he is enjoying he long ride down south.

David Weldrick, a former All-Ireland football champion, has died. He was 71. https://www.thesun.ie/news/4451572/man-dies-clare-swimming-kilkee-clare/

Terrible news. My mother in law died yesterday aged 78, suddenly. She did not suffer from any known illness. She was going upstairs, we heard a thud and she was on the landing in the middle of the stairs. She lost blood from mouth, nose and ears. Every resuscitation attempt failed and she was pronounced dead at 3:00 p.m. local time. We will enormously miss her, as she cared about everything in the house. Really one of the worst, if not the worst, moments in my life.
