Sir Creep

One of the oldest living relatives of the founder of Tigard (OR) had passed away. Curtis Tigard was born in 1909 and lived to the age of 109. Tigard was a World War II veteran and graduate of Oregon Agricultural College, now known as Oregon State University. Tigard was known as East Butte until the late 1800s, when renamed Tigardville after the postmaster, who was also Curtis’s dad. The name was later shortened to Tigard so the railroad wouldn’t confuse it with Wilsonville. SC

Patrick Williams (79) and Douglas Grindstaff (87) no Spring chickens, yet even random elderly dart throwers didn’t hit either one as a Grammy selection. smh we suck SC

Ive followed this for a 6 months now, coulda attached to my posts. Thanks for sad update anyhow. SC

Our cat is named after a black panther

Post whore. Waiting for you to post high school football coaches next.

Slightly misplaced maybe? Developing story out of Laos: Laos state news agency says several dead, hundreds missing after collapse of hydroelectric dam in southeast.

See that’s how great that album is, for me that’s middle of the road. Serial Thrilla dude they’re all great.

Speaking as a Trump University graduate, allow me to interject....

Hey if this is a POLL move it outta here, this is exclusively DEAD POOLS. If it’s a DP then once a name is chosen they’re off the board. Admins this appears to be to be misplaced.

I voted Lois Smith cuz I’ve no fucking idea who she is, and shouldn’t I, given the thread’s title? No matter, any time you ask a poll like this it’s got to be a female who wins, they live longer, math is on my side. Lois, whoever the fuck you are, do me proud, toots! SC (edit— and right off there’s a secondary vote for Smith. Fuck off wanker)

I cant imagine the epidemic that would have to occur to actually make me stop eating oysters. Maybe I’ll come to Norway!

The little train that could meets up with the little wheelchair that couldn’t. SC

Oh there were dozens of links to it, trust me to pick some San Fran pulp. Here’s one from Forbes, that’ll do nicely.

Good to see they’ve time to draft an obit for some run of the mill Bishop, but the fastest man on the planet, well..... Hey it’s YOUR local press, I’m just stating facts for the annals. SC

Anything like the Mothers of Invention?

Along with Tony Sparano, that’s TWO ex Raider/49ers combo in a few days! Ok now, this is the second Raider/49er to die in a few days. I can’t think of many but Matt Miller must be shaking in his fekkin boots. SC

What a great great song

Sent me scrambling to look up ‘erstwhile’ I have to sadly admit, wasn’t aware the Oxford Professor of Fine Arts took part in our forums. SC (ok looked it up, and for not simply saying ‘former’, let me now change my post to read ‘save the pompous stuffy bullshit for letters you write to your PM’ ffs). And how can you be someone’s FORMER father? So this is one of those ‘if you’re not really sure what a word means don’t use it’ scenarios. Professor of Fine Arts my arse, ya tosser.

‘No other information on his cause of death was immediately available.’ I hate that cowardly shit. Whether it’s the family or the reporter, he was 28 and if he was sick they’d have fucking said so. Thus, he either topped himself or OD’d, call it what is is you fucking cowards.

What trial? It’s over. He’s serving a sentence.

Food critic Jonathan Gold, who became the first restaurant critic to win the Pulitzer Prize for criticism, has died after battling pancreatic cancer. He was 57. SC

SA Parliament extended condolences on Sunday following the death of former journalist and DA MP Zelda Jongbloed following a long battle with cancer. Jongbloed had been a journalist for 40 years before she became a DA MP in 2014, and served with dedication on several committees. SC

Yup some of those are correct, but are so bad they shouldn’t be resurrected. ‘A good walk spoiled’ Not funny not anything, and when you have the infamous Dangerfield line about ‘what are the two greatest wastes of real estate: golf courses and cemeteries”, maybe something like ‘one of the greatest wastes of real estate’ or summat at least has context. I prefer it be left blank than ‘a good walk spoiled’ frankly. I created a thread that that had a piss poor subtitle that has been left off and I’m happy to see it that way. So I’m consistent, if nothing else. SC

Took my 7-yr old budding astonomer to this free local event. Got to see Saturn Jupiter/4 moons and Venus through some proper telescopes. Cool event for everyone, kids especially. SC

1. Sonovabitch there goes a sleeper pick . 2. Interesting that National Catholic Reporter web address looks like it says Necro Online
