@ladyfiona gets a chance to catch up on her points. However, this should be and remain the exception: Incorrect voting should be named and skipped. However, the user has the opportunity to submit a new and correct vote. The rules are not difficult: + 4 and - 6 points can be awarded once a day. Of course, the constantly changing order of the songs makes the game a bit confusing, but that's the way it works and all players need to concentrate a bit. It also makes a difference whether you're playing on PC or mobile: copy, paste, delete, mark, change... it's certainly more difficult on mobile. Thanks to all users who point out minor errors or bring order to the order! Otherwise, it's nice when this game is used for fun or distraction. Your comments are great and I hope we can get through the whole 70's together!!!

China's indiscussed lord for ten years, successor of Jiang Zemin, and most unexpressive man in the history of mankind, Hu Jintao, seems to be doing very bad, expecially for a Chinese cadre. Hu was escorted out of the CPC congress this morning and seemed completely unaware of his surroundings. Rumours of Parkinson's, Alzherimer's and heart disease have been circulating for the last few years and the physical decline since 2019 is evident, as he now needs some assistance walking. 80 in December.

Seen handing out cash at Malibu Labor Center. Still looking strong and mobile, besides some visible eye redness.

Lets not forget, "Knock Three Times" is not Dawn's worst number one of the decade.

Rainer Schaller, founder of budget gym chain McFit has disappeared near Costa Rica, with the plane he was on: https://www.spiegel.de/panorama/leute/kleinflugzeug-von-mcfit-gruender-offenbar-vor-costa-rica-verschwunden-a-3012734f-398a-45fa-9bd9-bd9f42c1db81

That made me laugh.

If Boris wins I reckon it is all but guaranteed that enough Tory Mps would either defect , quit the commons altogether causing by elections or resign the Tory whip in such number that his majority would be gone or severely dented.The argument seems to be that getting Boris back makes a general election less likely but I think it would increase it as the Tories would look a much bigger joke than they do even now. A couple of my friends predict civil unrest if Boris comes back.I can't see it going that far straight away but could add to the extreme anger by the vast majority of the population and cause it in time to boil over into the streets.Especially as winter bites and BlowJo still could be suspended from the house.

Bob Odenkirk is 60.

I will certainly put him on my personal 50 list for next year. Way too good a chance he dies of something not natural, and the health rumors aren't stopping.

Hu's on first?

Twice on the coffin *two wooden knocks* if the answer is no

A reminder of the genius of Benny Hill. Enjoy!

So sad to report that actor Donald Elson died back on May 7 at the age of 99. IMDb is updated but no obituary, a new name maybe for the next SAG AFTRA FALL. Facebook Notice

Finnish art forger, pool pick Veli Seppä dying again, but this time he isn't "dying", he's probably actually dying: https://www.iltalehti.fi/kotimaa/a/c8137a0a-729b-4ef2-97cc-b517723220f0 He's had lung cancer since 2011, reported to be terminal and "on borrowed time" in 2019. He's been hospitalised for two weeks now and getting worse very quickly, but says that he still smokes and "this isn't hospice yet".

Charles Martel died on this day 1281 years ago, aged ~53. Charles was the son of Pepin of Herstal, the duke of the Franks. When his father died in 714, civil war broke out amongst Francia- by 718, Charles and has army gained the most power within the fighting factions- he had enough power to appoint the kings he once served, as he did with Theuderic IV in 721. In October of 732, Charles led his army to battle Umayyad forces at the Battle of Tours. The Umayyads attempted to continue expanding their ever-growing caliphate into modern-day France after conquering the Iberian Peninsula, Charles won the battle due to gaining the high ground and being far more well-prepared than the Umayyads, and his victory prevented the spread of Islam into Europe. For his victories, he gained the epithet "Martel"- "The Hammer". Charles is the paternal grandfather of Charlemagne, therefore making him an ancestor to virtually all living people of European descent.

English footballer George Cohen, who played all of his career at Fulham but famously was part of Englands 1966 Football World Cup winning team, celebrates his 83rd birthday today.

"Visible red eye". No kidding! Jesus Christ, he looks far worse in my opinion. Maybe he is just finally looking his age.

So far not a good impression Mr. Spaghetti Monster.
