Greg Hildebrandt, who, with his brother Tim, designed the early Star Wars posters in 1977, dead at 85.

Never heard of her

I'm inclined to agree with @Commtech Sio Bibble on this, you shouldn't drop out just because your favourite is being voted down, I'm sure you can find something else to upvote even if you don't like it as much. We've all had to adapt in this way at some point in the game.

So I found out that Ira "Ike" Schab was hospitalized recently according to his fundraiser. The exact timespan hasn't been specified but considering the recent post on him being hospitalized was made on the 25th, and the update of him returning home is posted on the 29th, let's assume he was hospitalized from the 25th to the 28th.

Seems to have gone down relatively well, despite the doom mongering of the past month plus. Lots of talk about growth being sluggish until 2032 although the measures should start to bear fruit by then - good! This country needs to stop with the short-termism. We need long-term investment all over the place - in terms of people, time AND money. If Labour start delivering some of that, then it's a start.

Whenever Sarah Ferguson is back in the news I think of this:

Yeah, you don’t need to tell me how the game works. I’ve been presiding over it for a while now. Some people take themselves away from a round because they look at it and are completely uninspired. This is the first round in 18 games where we’ve approached that being the case for me.

Who?

There's no need to get stroppy just because your opinions differ from a lot of people in this round. Personally, I agree with your downvoting of Skyfall and I'll be going at it as my next target, so please don't skip the round just because a song you like isn't fairing too well, we've all had one of our favourites axed at some point, but that's just the game.

@Spade_Cooley gets the second unique hit of the game with Trevor Whymark and is the first player to two hits in the same category.

Appears as though Alastair Down has passed away. Glad he got to see the Press Room at Cheltenham named in his honour just last week.

Charuhasan hospitalised after fall.

I don't really celebrate anyone dying as such. That's why I'm making the most of her being alive for now – I can still bitch!

Deathrace Form Guide #8 Isabel Veloso Brazilian influencer with terminal cancer, who now has also become pregnant with her first child. Claims she has months to live. The teenager has a 6.6-inch tumor between her lungs that also impacts her heart. Call her stupid or not. She's an interesting one to have on your list.

FFS! Just block the wazzock!

Deathrace Form Guide #6 S. M. Krishna The 92-year-old Indian former Minister of External Affairs and Chief Minister of Karnataka who campaigned for Kennedy in 1960 hasn't been a healthy man in years, having spent four months hospitalised in varyingly critical conditions earlier this year. Reading between the lines, he suffers from some forms of severe lung and heart diseases and might've even undergone a lung transplant earlier. He's been in hospital again for two weeks, but is presumably satisfactory, improving, stable...etc, but a few further deteriorations might help him join his forementioned political guru in January.

News only seems to have been made public in the last 24 hours but a quick search on Ryerson tells us he died in August: CHEATLE Robert Giles Lenthall Probate notice 22 AUG 2024 Death late of Bowral NSW Probate Index 21 OCT 2024
