Now they will take us out of the ECHR in a further attack on our rights and reputation.

I even doubt we're talking weeks here, a sweepstake wouldn't be such a bad idea

I really must play this game next year! Anyway Malky Mackay has been bumped by Ross County in Scottish Premiership. Hit for @RoverAndOut @ladyfiona and @maryportfuncity

Who'd have thought eh? Rwanda plan unlawful - supreme court.

Just posted in the Advent Avalanche form guide, he only has to see the first minutes of 1 Dec to score in that pool!

Defo think he could end up being the final hit of the year or the first of next year if he's on the list.(which he surely must be)

N. Sankaraiah dead at 102.

Barbara Park died on this day 10 years ago, aged 66. - Park was an author of children's novels that dealt with serious topics- these included Mick Harte Was Here (1995), about a girl dealing with the premature death of her brother in a bicycle accident, and The Graduation of Jake Moon (2000), about a boy dealing with his grandfather's Alzheimer's. - Park was however best known for her Junie B. Jones series of illustrated novels, which she began writing in 1992- in a way, these were the Diary of a Wimpy Kids of the '90s. 31 books were made, and have sold over 55 million copies worldwide: These books have also been constantly challenged by schools due to Junie being a bad role model for children (kind of like Greg Heffley of the aforementioned DoaWK series). - Park died from ovarian cancer. The last Junie B. Jones book, Junie B. Jones: Turkeys We Have Loved and Eaten (and Other Thankful Stuff), was released posthumously, ten months after her death.

I agree with all of this. It’s like we are besties!

Maybe Carter wants to break a record of surpassing Gerald Ford of latest in the year.

How about passing a law that the government must be funded on-time or lawmakers lose pay + can't recess until it is? Ridiculous

Mickey Dolenz has said in a Telegraph interview that “I don’t think I thought I’d even be alive at 78 let alone still on stage!”

Psychedelic Furs definitely are a bigger name than The Fall or Tragically Hip were

Well yeah, and we don't need a debt ceiling either. They do it this way so they can threaten us. My dad doesn't get paid and has to work overtime if they go into shutdown. (he's in airplane safety: this is really fucking dangerous that the GOP keep staging shutdowns). And the government didn't even pay them back right away during the last shutdown in 2018-2019 over Trump's wall: they "trickled" the money to them.

I think what makes this a different case from boxing deaths and other sports related deaths is that this type of incident is not a regular part of the sport, albeit a freak accident that falls outside typical play. Should be noted whoever was arrested (pretty obvious who) was only arrested, doesn't seem like they were charged with anything. I wouldn't expect anything to come of this, just seems like they're doing their due diligence and following the legal process. Nope. It's a pretty divided issue it seems. It's mandatory as a minor, but once you hit a certain level/age it's not mandated. Kind of ridiculous seeing as how I've personally never played without one and never had an issue with wearing it. Some claim it's a nuisance, but I wouldn't particularly take those people very seriously. I could understand players not wanting to wear a mouthguard or a cage, but not wearing a neckguard can be lethal.

Well, one of them is an internationally recognized sex symbol, the other is just Paul Newman's widow. All these people/animals have survived an incredible amount of ailments, which makes them immortal. What I like from deadpooling is the vastity of knowledge it brings. Last week I met some people from Kerala and they were completely astonished that I knew their language was Malayalam and who VS Achuthanandan was. "How do you know???" ...by chance.

He's been on my long list for a while.

Maybe one to watch for next year.... meh

Gordon Griffith, first actor to portray Tarzan on film, died on this day 60 years ago, aged 51.
