3 pointsIn his latest “Tales of the Whales” podcast he does with his wife, they said his most recent scans from last week showed his tumors have all shrunk. He was about to stop treatment due to the nasty side effects but as the doctor found the results to be “brilliant” he is going to continue treatment. They seem to feel this has bought him a bit of time.

3 pointsCan @Commtech Sio Bibble and I get credit for scoring 0 in this game? I think that’s an accomplishment in itself.

2 pointsI have a double experience of this song. I have seen it performed live at the same venue by the original artist and the cover band. Hyde Park 2012 - John Fogerty of Creedence Clearwater Revival, who wrote the song and had a US hit with it. Hyde Park 2019 - Status Quo, whose version is the best known.

2 pointsRonald Reagan died on this day 20 years ago, aged 93. - Before Reagan became an actor, he worked as a lifeguard, and credited with 77 rescues. - Among Reagan's notable film roles were as George Gipp in 1940's Knute Rockne, All American (where he got his "The Gipper" nickname from), Peter Boyd in 1951's Bedtime for Bonzo, and Jeff Williams in 1952's Hong Kong. - Surprisingly enough, Reagan was initially a registered Democrat, idolizing FDR; he began veering to the right during the Eisenhower administration. - Reagan was a top contender in the 1976 Republican primaries, coming in a very close second behind Gerald Ford (receiving 1078 delegates at the Republican National Convention to Ford's 1121). - Besides his Reaganomics policies, making peace with the Soviet Union, the (now-failed) War on Drugs, the Iran-Contra scandal, and bungling the AIDS crisis, Reagan was known for his sense of humor during his presidency. Among his quips included "hoping none of [his surgeons] were Democrats" after his assassination attempt, outlawing Russia and saying "we begin bombing in five minutes", and referring to said assassination attempt when a balloon popped during one of his speeches: - Reagan was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 1994, and died after a 10-year battle. He appeared on the DeathList 14 times, and was the 5th hit (of 14) of 2004; he was initially given the description of "Idiot", which was changed due to complaints (possibly due to seemingly disrespecting his mental deterioration, rather than right-wing outrage).

2 pointsI am quite sad about this too despite not being a Doctor Who fan. He was in an episode of Robin of Sherwood, of which I am a big fan.
