    I know what you mean @gcreptile. I may have 14 outs, but the only one I feel is somewhat likely to go is Boog Powell.

    Tebbit, Hurd, Skinner and Lawson were already largely discussed when I joined this forum in 2016. All over 90 now.

    I was trying to make a joke that this game takes an especially long time, so that even my relatively underperforming team now has winning chances. Looking at my names though, William Daniels ("KITT") seemed to be in good health a while ago. Pete Rose now has an active sports betting side business. EmamAli Habibi looked okay last year at his 90th birthday. And Saul Friedländer just celebrated his 90th birthday, not publicly, but there was also no mention of especially bad health. I think I'm down to two lottery tickets, Greta Andersen and Salvatore Gionta.

    Valdas Adamkus celebrated his 96th, looks amazing. Congratulated by other ancient Lithuanian politician Vytautas Landsbergis who wishes Adamkus would still live a long time with Alma Adamkiene. Alma and I will have a normal dinner, maybe there will be a glass or two of champagne. According to the president, Ms. Alma is feeling better now. "Healing. It was worse. Now, I have to admit that I am happy to watch her improvement, and I hope that we will see her out for a walk in the summer", said V.Adamkus.

    Definitely not mine. As well as the deceased Nehemiah Persoff and Marsha Hunt, I have the apparently extremely healthy trio of nonagenarians Elizabeth Hoffman, Alan Oppenheimer, and Ray Reinhardt.

    For 1978 it is going to be Kate Bush born 1958 - she was 19 at the time. Don't think there would be anyone younger?

    Additionally, two of his other `very young` wives died while married to him: one of an over-dose and the other one of `drowning` before the divorce was final! The Killer was a very appropriate Nick-name for him.

    Paul Eddington died on this day 27 years ago, aged 68. Eddington first appeared on TV for the show The Adventures of Robin Hood, where he portrayed multiple characters, most notably Will Scarlet beginning in season 4. He would also make appearances on shows such as The Avengers, Hine, and Frontier. In 1975, Eddington began to play the role of Jerry Leadbetter, the neighbor of the main characters in The Good Life, for which he became famous for. Eddington would receive further fame as the title character, Jim Hacker, in Yes Minister- the minister of the fictional Department of Administrative Affairs, and beginning in season 4, prime minister (to which the show was promptly retitled Yes, Prime Minister). The show ran from 1980 to 1988. In 1994, Eddington revealed that he had been suffering from Mycosis fungoides, a rare form of lymphoma, since the 1950s. He made the information public due to concerns about his darkening skin and hair loss. Because of this, Eddington debuted on the 1995 DeathList, put at number 39. Eddington would become the seventh death out of nine that year- his death being overshadowed by the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin that same day. (Incidentally, Mr. T was diagnosed with the same illness that year, and would be put on next year's list- now you know why.)

    I was amongst the first to point out the annoyance (and I quote myself "selfishness") of liking everything that moves. Get your name everywhere in 4 and a half minutes. get the entire board talking about you even though realistically you are nobody and need to take a bit of time to build a decent reputation..... But fuck it, I don't have the time. I point it out. and if you don't get it (he didn't)....Ok , well I'll either ignore you or take the piss as the mood takes me. What else can you do?

    I would say Georgia Holt is more famous than Bill Gates Dad. I remember her being interviewed by Clive James alongside Jackie Stallone and she has been a guest on Drag Race
