    After Dos Santos became oldest ever third oldest living person (surpassing previous record of Sarah Knauss - 116 years and 314 days), now Lucile Randon ties with Sarah Knauss' record of oldest ever second oldest living person at the age of 117 years and 204 days. It took nearly 25 years but finally both Sarah Knauss' records were broken.

    Aye, but... I stand by my comment a few posts above - they've benefitted from keeping their egos under control and avoiding Class A drugs (many acts with a fraction of their record sales fell foul of both and look like shit/have died). Dead pooling wise it would appear there's nowt to see here for a while.

    So the update is: Out Mamberti: not expected to recover anymore Out Dilma: discharged; In Joao Doria (Politician, 63): surgical procedure to remove hernia, it was planned for the first week in august but posponed after Doria was diagnosed with Covid for the second time in July. Erasmo still in hospital but his wife (32?!) tested positive too. I would be surprised if Paulo Maluf didn't get involved in this flow, he really loves hospital parties

    currently on an 127 days drought what we're trying to beat here is 151 days. (2011) after that we got 175 days (2003-2004) 177 days (2000-2001) and then 183 days (2002-2003) So it seems to be already in the top 5 longest droughts of the millenium
