    Eddie Robinson was selected by nine players in the Baseball category He was the first hit for @Great Uncle Bulgaria He was the second hit for @An Fear Beag but both hits are in the same category whereas @Spade_Cooleygets a second hit in a second category For @Death Impends this was the second hit in the baseball category but the third hit overall The following have now has three hits all in different categories @Toast @BuffaloPhil @msc @RoverAndOut However, @Banana has now got five hits but still only in three categories So there are still no single winning hits but there are plenty of people who are potential two hits away from a win and Toast has both a unique and three categories crossed off No player has more than two hits in any category

    I just watched this clip from 60 minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNrvXw9juNs&ab_channel=60Minutes Really quite emotional viewing. It is incredible to watch him turn into the performer he used to be as soon as the music starts or the curtain is raised. It is also touching to see him remember Lady Gaga's name when she walks on stage, and how much it means to her. But the bottom line for us is: although he is physically quite fit for a 95 year-old and his voice is incredible for someone that old, his Alzheimer's is more advanced than I thought.

    Tom Parker aims to be "cancer-free" by March...well, good luck: https://metro.co.uk/2021/10/07/tom-parker-aims-to-be-cancer-free-by-march-from-terminal-brain-tumour-15379600/ He tried several private treatments and lost a lot of weight at one point - until he seemingly found one that worked. It still makes you wonder what timeline he is on. Could linger on for a few years.

    Francisca Celsa dos Santos is very likely dead as mentioned in the World's Oldest thread, according to a few people the Gerontology Research Group has already confirmed it. Waiting for the Gerontology wikia to be updated. Anyways, "if" dead, she's a third hit for Sideik and a first for PLANet. Yeah, she's dead.

    I am stating to sense another bowel movement like I did a few weeks ago. What I am unsure of is whether it means like it did a few weeks ago a raft of my derby deadpool picks particularly uniques are about to die eg Christina Crawford, Erin Pizzey, Johnny Gold, Ronnie Knight etc or whether we are about to have an 8th or even 9th hit on the official deathlist. But some significant activity is due before the end of the month of June that I am sensing for sure. A plop and splash in the toilet bowl of some kind and noteworthiness is semi imminent.

    Probably yes. In that category "biggest lifespan of either spouse". 1843-2020 Anna Nicole Smith also had this huge age difference, but of course, she died very early herself.
