Let’s just have a moment to reflect. *deep sigh* Before we lose the will to live and cancel this game, let’s see if we can do a better job in the next round.

Searched for a report but did not find one.

Gordy Giovanelli (Wiki) dead off radar at 97 on Dec 2022

We currently have 22 submissions and no duplicate picks. I am going through the process of verifying them now...

Only Americans will understand these jokes I think. @Sir Creep @Death Impends @CaptainChorizo

Prob my fave Smashing Pumpkins song. Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness is an awesome album.

Jr would definitely have a different button for a different kind of coke to be delivered to the Oval Office.

Seeing his decades long "legacy" be destroyed by his offspring would definitely be a joy to see; however, I wouldn't rule out Jr. being chosen solely because of his name if such a thing were to happen

I've only met Ann and Maureen.

He was on the Senate Floor about 20 minutes ago. He seems frail, but these kinds of guys tend to hang on for years.

if he had a wealth of institutional knowledge, what has he done with that knowledge other than prevent the nomination of a supreme court justice with his republican majority?

His father in law, James S C Chao, is notable in his own right & 96 in December

101 years ago, Grigori Rasputin, "Russia's Greatest Love Machine", drank poison, was shot, beaten, and thrown in a river. He later died of hypothermia. Coincidentally enough, the person who sang that song about him (Bobby Farrell) died on the same day in 2010.

It was George Michael’s Last Christmas one year ago today aged 53.

Giuliani looked like an empty husk there, though that was less health and more him not realizing either A. you're supposed to smile when they crack jokes about you at the Al Smith Dinner or B. the cameras would sometimes focus on the audience.

I was believing it right up to the "Honestly, HSBC Customer Security Department."!!!
