    May as well. My Facebook page is full of people "calling in sick" because of it while posting photos of the Corona beer.

    As promised, a list of WWII veterans from the British establishment. Much shorter than the U.S. one, but I can't promise it's complete as there is no one "go to" to get this info. Here goes: Royal family *Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh (b. 1921) *Queen Elizabeth II (b. 1926) Members of the House of Lords (includes current and former, including all hereditaries who lost seats in 1999 reform) *9th Viscount Falmouth (b. 1919) *21st Baron Saye and Sele (b. 1920) *Lord Michael Shaw (b. 1920) *Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh (b. 1921, also listed above) *Baroness Jill Knight (b. 1923) *Baroness Pamela Sharples (b. 1923) *11th Earl of Elgin (b. 1924) *Lord Tony Christopher (b. 1925) *Lord John Eden (b. 1925) *Lord Ted Graham (b. 1925) *3rd Baron Wakehurst (b. 1925) *9th Baron Walsingham (b. 1925) *8th Marquess of Ailesbury (b. 1926) *13th Earl of Airlie (b. 1926) Members of Parliament *Sir Patrick Duffy (b. 1920) Labour *Lord Michael Shaw (b. 1920) Conservative *Baroness Jill Knight (b. 1923, also listed above) Conservative *James Ramsden (b. 1923) Conservative *Eric Cockeram (b. 1924) Conservative *Ben Ford (b. 1925) Labour *Lord John Eden (b. 1925, also listed above) Conservative *Lord Ted Graham (b. 1925, also listed above) Labour Only 4 names altogether Note: Ron Atkins (b. 1916) did not serve because of psoriasis

    My X Factor theme team has unwittingly excavated this ancient bio for Rachel Hylton, clearly not picked for some time: So-called "star" of the latest X-factor, but better known for her violent, drug-filled past/present than her "singing". She competed in 2008! Not sure why whoever wrote that blurb had such a cob-on about her anyway. "So-called" by who? "Better known" by who? Also there's no such show as "X-factor". I guess writing bios wears you down.

    'I Love It' was pretty much a one-hit wonder.

    Also, for Lindsey Graham’s bio can you please add the line “Now he is Donald Trump’s bitch.” Thanks...

    Yes, please Estelle Parsons wasn't just nominated for an Oscar, she got one for her role in Bonnie & Clyde. Anne Buydens (Douglas) was born on 23.04.1919, not 13.05.1930. Thank you!!!

    That reminds me whatever happened to Corona Pop?

    All (?) theme teams now have (THEME) at the beginning of their name. Is this a good step? It changes the alphabetic order in the list of teams. Also, I am completing the list of celebrity infos right now. Any requests for changes of the old ones? You know, stuff like, Donald Trump is now president and so on....

    Team descriptions up for as many notable teams as possible. Think about 100 teams have them now, I know I wrote about 60 or so...

    JiroemonKimura vs Old Crem LizLemon vs Ethushishispushingupdaisies FixedBusiness vs The Unknown Man Annami vs Grobler HDS vs Great Uncle Bulgaria An Fear Bag vs Markb4 DeathByArsenic vs Sean Wormfarmer vs Joemoneypenny Djemba Djemba vs Yorkshire Banker Skinny Kiltrunner vs Sir Creep Not to worry, there’s still another week to submit a team, I’m just highlighting the teams that I have received so far. Though I know a couple are last minute folk waiting to see if more folk like Allison Copening, Morgan Wootten, and Jay Allen will make their way onto the shortlist (they’re all dead btw so they’d all be rejected, they all just had some on their way out news that people could find)...

    Literally, Spade was so on top of the deaths and I wasn't in a great place (with my personal deaths), I was irrelevant. Honestly, I'm going to be in catch up mode where we are with instantaneous updates, but if I catch one I'm just gonna help out. Spade was so awesome on his updates. I saw so many unique hits and couples and triples this year, could not let my Committee down. I'll still be behind, but I'll find those little fuckers which might just pass us by. Spade never needed help. those who ask will always will find help at Hogwarts!!!

    It is, but for clarity, this is a non league team and not the team currently near the bottom of the Premiership.

    Just think, a cure for all cancers will mean no more chuggers, no more awareness campaigns, no research carried out by teams of scientists, no admins, no staff whatsoever. Unemployment will suddenly rocket!

    I reckon Des O'Connor will go this year. The last time I saw him on TV he looked very weak, his voice lacking any strength. He didn't look like he had the energy to pull his underpants on. Mark my words!

    Nobody says sorry here. It is a sign of weakness.

    He was Terry Jones, he isn't a Messiah, he's a very funny man. R.I.P. means rest as a collection of pieces. All these incredibly boring RIP's I read are nothing but left brain hemispheristic bullshit. My academic work and my bullshit degree that was supposed to deal with dynamic computer simulation. Terry, you won't rest in R.I.P. There's no such thing.
