Can someone change this guy's name to Dunnsky1211?

"Mr. Donleavy found himself in the news in 2011 when his second wife, Mary Wilson Price, an actress, revealed that the two grown children she had given birth to during their 19-year marriage, which ended in divorce in 1989, were not Mr. Donleavy’s." Fucking hell, that must have made medical history. As well as being extremely painful.

She's an odd case, she's very famous but lupus is often hard to predict. She will probably be gone in 10 years

Superstar's going to outlive the rest of those 1943ers just to spite everyone. The Destroyer (Dick Beyer) is 87 next year. Well outlived traditional wrestler life expectancy, so a good punt for those struggling to fill out a DDP team.

Aww. That's a shame. As well as Husker Du, Nova Mob were also great.

Five years since Jacques Antoine, creator of The Crystal Maze, Fort Boyard, etc., received an automatic lock-in.

Ah, I was going to say "someone smart must have picked him after Biblio pointed out he'd not been picked in the previous X years". Doesn't really count if you picked him yourself, though.

Grace Kelly lost her crown on this day 35 years ago, aged 52.

Awwww noooo Another for the List of the Lost radio show, then

Doesn't seem to be a better place to post this, so: 1 dead, 3 injured after shooting in a Rockford high school. Shooter was a student.

Now he'll be asking St Peter to "go get his fucking shinebox".

They're going at a fast rate ! Hasn't been a UK cabinet minister die since January

Seven teams picked her for the DDP. Do we know who they all are?

I don't understand how a little known musician worldwide is able to get a telegraph obit but the second longest living ruler doesn't. That stuns me.

J P Donleavy is dead at 91. DDP pick.

Just saw the best insult ever 'I wouldn't fuck your mum with a dick I found in a bin, let alone my own' I will be using that one as often as possible.

I like the Steely Dan album Katy Lied, just because they put a type of cricket called the katydid on the album sleeve. Puns like that appeal to me.

Well 2 good ruled out and one bad ruled in..... Win some, lose some.

No one is truly out of danger. Death can happen at anytime. A part of me feels like filming more cameos is a bad sign...

If he dies in Barnsley it may be some time before the rest of the World gets to hear about it.

Should've gone to Specsavers, then

He once had diarrhea for two weeks and nearly died from poisoning, claims Grace: http://www.news24.com/Africa/Zimbabwe/mugabe-had-diarrhoea-for-2-weeks-after-being-poisoned-he-nearly-died-claims-wife-grace-20170910 It's unclear when it happened. Possibly more interesting is the information that Mugabe's regular trips to Singapore supposedly concern his eyes.

^ Lionel Richie's really let himself go!

Yoko Ono cannot be described as a singer, anyway.
