Hi everyone - thank you for all your good wishes. Up to now my symptoms have been okay and think I’ve got a mild version but I know the serious, dangerous stuff can all happen at the end so not taking anything for granted. For now I’m fine but will stay off here for a couple of weeks. Cheers, GUN

'Notable' doesn't necessarily mean 'famous'. I think GUN qualifies. Notable A. adj. 1. Worthy or deserving of attention, esp. on account of excellence, value, or importance; significant in size or amount; noteworthy, remarkable, striking, signal, eminent. (OED)

It's all about tracing and recording deaths. How is that not relevant? Try to stop being an arsehole.

And some are 15 years behind the times.

Did he ask you what colour knickers you were wearing?

Italian 101-year old man who beat coronavirus dead at, well, 101.

It's one of those phishing things that infest social media, designed to draw people into giving away vital information about themselves.

You are lucky. If you hadn't have found that knife that mouse might have attacked you with it. Now just go and look again, you might have left a hammer under the seat it could smash you over the head with. Mice are as hard as fuck!

Doh! So I should avoid the next site that offers to tell my fortune, for free, based on my Social Security number?

Oops, apparently old enough for the Alzheimer's to be setting in. I entered my year of birth without registering that. When I was 12, it was Bad Girls in my neck of the woods, but if I was American it would have been My Sharona. We Don't Talk Anymore in the UK. Interestingly, those first 2 are on my running playlist. So, old, but not that old.

Report of the death of Carl Dobkins Jr, more successful Stateside with My Heart Is An Open Book by the late Lee Pockriss, but hey as it turns out he had a UK#44 in April 1960 with Lucky Devil:

Well, of course the worry is that they might chew through something important, eg wiring or cables. Poor little buggers have to keep chewing because their teeth never stop growing. That, and their lack of a sphincter means there is a trail of wee wherever they go. Appalling design from the Creator. I first became aware that I had lodgers in the car last year when I bought something fragile. I keep a fleece blanket in the boot for various contingencies, and when I took it out to wrap the item I discovered that it had been well shredded. A cosy nest for someone! Since then I've had the cleanest boot space in the county.

The Seekers are all still around aren't they?

Riot rocks prison in Kansas Tara McKelvey BBC News, Washington Things were already tense at a prison in Lansing, Kansas. A dozen inmates and 14 staffers got sick from Covid-19, and officials gave out cloth masks to try and stop the infection from spreading further. Then, on Thursday, some of the prisoners began to set fires and smash windows. The uprising lasted several hours, and it is not clear why it started. No-one was badly hurt during the melee, and the facilities were locked down again by early the following day. The violence at the prison - which houses about 150 inmates - is the latest sign that people in confinement are becoming increasingly desperate. Hundreds of people have been infected in US prisons and jails, according to data compiled by the New York Times, and more than two dozen have died. Prisoners try to protect themselves against the disease as best they can. In some places, such as in Lansing, they have begun to express their rage in a violent manner.

We Will All Go Together is perhaps a bit cliched to post (although I do love it), so here's his other great. Who hasn't got funny looks from passersby when inadvertently singing it in public? Needless to say, legend who will one day be a DL hit presumably, but hopefully not anytime soon.

And first of all, she was a male.

I live across from a funeral home. The temptation to ask it how business is mounts.

Also add on George Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumfeld Hopefully she goes this year.

*googles* Oh right, she did get an obit in the end? Will sort that out next time then.

If I make it through this would love a massive DL meet up.Nothing special just a drink in a pub anywhere.Figure we will all need something to celebrate when this nightmare is over.
