2 pointsI love this song because even though it's from 20 years ago. The lyrics still remain relevant to this day. "Overseas, yeah, we tryna stop terrorism But we still got terrorists here livin' In the USA, the big CIA The Bloods and The Crips and the KKK" and "Nations droppin' bombs Chemical gasses fillin' lungs of little ones With ongoin' sufferin' as the youth die young So ask yourself, is the lovin' really gone?"

2 pointsWell... I don't know. I'm kind of leaning towards waiting for a long time... and then maybe, if there's still no known age, I'll go with the highest age that's plausible to me. Judging from the one picture, which might be a a couple of years old...I think I'd go with the 50-59 age bracket.

2 pointsThat and her husband was cruel enough to put a feeding tube in her at least 5 years before she died rather than let nature take its course.Putting a woman who was bedbound ,had one leg ,was partially paralysed , had suffered a stroke and also had severe dementia alive artificially is terribly cruel.Most people would not want to be kept alive in such a state and I struggle to believe someone as vibrant and full of life like Zsa Zsa would have wanted to live in such a diminished state.He didn't even sign a DNR on her behalf so when she did arrest you can bet all her ribs were broken and both her lungs were punctured in the process.

2 pointsSharon Farrell died off radar in May per a recent FB post by her sister. Looking at her Wiki page, someone did add a death date at the time, so looks like another case of someone editing a page to add a death date (which obviously didn't stick) and not telling the press.

1 pointEligibility rules for elected federal offices are written into the constitution. Any change would require an amendment; an arduous process which, even when most people would agree the stated change is a good idea, is too laborious to set in motion and complete for something so minor. Admittedly, it seems like a more glaring oversight now than in the past when it was basically unimaginable that someone with so few scruples and so little shame would stand for high office.

Hole In The Head is a classic, and Round Round was better too.

1 pointAl Megrahi always remind me of the Megrahi/Robin Gibb sweepstake which damn near ended in a photo finish. (And despite being sad at Gibb's death as a Bee Gees fan, Reaper's quip about him cracked me up!) "On a day when a man who caused much pain and suffering for people throughout the world is taken from us by cancer, it's a little sad to see him steal the headlines of the death of Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi." Dunn was legendary - to the point Mrs Msc woke me up from a painkiller induced sleep to tell me the news! @Joey Russ sent me a message to tell me Kirk Douglas was dead and my response was "Yeah right, nice try..." But yeah, it's Zsa Zsa Gabor for me. She was desperately ill throughout the 00s. She had the last rites given to her in Summer 2010. She then outlived DL pick after DL pick. There was people healthy in Summer 2010 who were successful DL hits before Gabor died in December 2016. The reactions to her death on this forum say it all: And a fair shout out to Joanne Woodward. We were told she had severe dementia and was house ridden 16 years ago. Since then, her seemingly much healthier and A list star husband Paul Newman got cancer and died, she's become a DDP and DL regular, she's been in end stage dementia for nearly a decade and on she continues. I don't get how and tbh I don't envy her.

1 pointDespite prosecuting crimes in the name of the citizens of the United States, as opposed to a particular state, federal courts are portioned into district courts. These districts cover a distinct geographic area (there are exceptions but they are not important here) and the state’s attorney for a given district prosecutes crimes committed in that district before jurors from within its confines. The charges being filed in DC have to do with the fact that the violation of federal law occurred within that district. I hope that clears it up.

1 pointBeen using this song as some sort of coping mechanism as of late. I've noticed that my stutter has worsened in the past few weeks and that has affected me a lot. The moment I realized that it was getting worse was when I couldn't even say the word "Simon" when I was talking about some records I had bought recently. I'm trying to improve as of late, but it's hard as fuck to get the motivation when it feels like all of the work I've spent over the years trying to fix the stutter was for nothing.
