I announce that after frantic research and tough decisions, I've picked a substitute of the late general Le Duc Anh as my perennial favourite. And the winner is... General Prem Tinsulanonda! Who was the good twin of evil Le Duc Anh, of course. Or maybe not so good? The general is dead, long live the general!

James Bass, member of the Tennessee Senate from 1936-1938 (!!) dead at 108: https://www.tba.org/news/james-bass-dies-at-108

She's been a rock (in terms of emotion) for her entire career, so to see her sobbing today goes to show the inexorable headache of Brexit has taken its toll on her. She'll add years to her life by getting out now. She got so much wrong - her personal Brexit red lines strangled her - but not as much as the party behind her did. Much as I'd like to see the back of this Tory government, I do want to give her a hug, make her a nice cuppa and reassure her that she's not a bad person, just a bit shit at her job. But millions of fuckers are guilty of that.

He should have dumped her for a 102-yr old when he had the chance.

Aye, when in... er........ Rome?....

You've gone native very fast.

It'll update when it updates, real life tends to take precedent (rightly). Mind 2014 - no updates for 6-7 months.

Telegraph obit for Murray Gell-Mann. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/obituaries/2019/05/25/murray-gell-mann-physicist-awarded-nobel-prize-work-elementary/

Holiday apparently.

Claims she won't go until the next election - but voting for things she clearly doesn't believe in might see her change her mind like David Cameron did.

At a job interview, the boss asked me, "What is your greatest weakness?" I glanced down at my wheelchair and said, "Surely you must be joking." "Not at all," he replied. "Alright then- underage fanny."

Sorry for your loss Young Willz remember the good times

I remember losing my dad it was surreal and I went through depressive episodes. He were a very tough man I imagined he'd be around forever. He died suddenly and relatively young. YW make time for yourself and make sure you find time to grieve. Sorry for your loss .

Really sorry about your loss, sir! @YoungWillz

Having the procedure done in Michigan, who knew?

"Oohhh no missus, really, titter ye not!" "EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!" Damn, I missed that episode.

Yup she really aged.....

I couldn't access the site when he died but RIP a sporting legend. When it was asked if Tiger Woods winning the US Masters this year was the best sporting comeback ever many people came up with Niki Lauda racing a grand prix and finishing 4th just 40 days after being burnt alive as one that topped it. Obviously it would have been good if he had been on the List, perhaps Murray and Stirling kept him off it, but he would certainly have added more gravitas to the List alive or dead than John McCririck. A legend in his sport but also known by most people outside his sport. Surprising after his double lung transplant last year that he was a unique on the DDP too but probably had lasted long enough after it before the year end for people to think he was out of the woods and his hospitalisation for pneumonia was this year. Anyhow I had him in my Crowdsourced list at number 12 but in no other team so I forgot about him as well. Of the four drivers credited with rescuing him from the burning car in 1976 three are still alive. Arturio Merzario is 76. Guy Edwards is also 76 (there was a death hoax about him last October). Brett Lunger is 73 Harald Ertl died at the age of 33 in 1982 in a private plane crash.

I was blessed with a 9 inch penis. That priest is in jail now.

Sadly that’s not going to happen as Masao has died.

OldWillz died today of cancer. Pain free at last. I've been running about for months sorting stuff out while he was in the hospital, now he's gone. Kept it quiet because it's been cool to have something else to occupy me. Orphan now.

She would still have two more years to go had her birth year really been 1924. That birth certificate they located aged her and thus was a curse for her. RIP.
