Sir Creep

Amazingly 88-year old Grammy winner Clarence Fountain has died and helped out not a soul here in Scavenger Hunt Bingo II. You'd think age alone would have lucked him onto a team or two. SC

A founding member of the Grammy-winning gospel group the Blind Boys of Alabama has died. Clarence Fountain was 88. Fountain died Sunday in a hospital in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where he had been taken Friday, manager Charles Driebe of Atlanta said in an email Monday. The group won four Grammys, a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award and a National Endowment for the Arts National Heritage Fellowship, and were members of the Gospel Music Hall of Fame. Anyone in Scavenger Hunt II have Mr. Fountain the Grammy winner? (Edit: Nope!) SC

An obit...

Agreed, other than the hyperbole headline

FTR and obviously with all respect I shouldn't have to heap onto Spade, he said in his tip (I checked beleive you me) 'from his same source as...' and if Google can't find it, and it can't, I've no idea his source, not even a hint about an illness. I'm not doubting Spade at all (and the fact everyone else has Will speaks to that) but I couldn't verify anything and just not enough to go with. So I passed. I guess I could have PMd Spade but that seems wrong. SC

Jesus....that was amazingly quick. Proves me wrong on many posts, a first! SC

This all reminds me of...... https://g.co/kgs/KtCPhQ (Ugh video won’t load grrr)

Sir Creep’s fast food tip for the day: I always used to get this at lunch and it was under $2.50 U.S. I am pretty sure you’re still looking at only $3.50-3.75. 1. Go to Wendy’s. Now I know, but trust SirC and read on! 2. Order the sour cream and chive potato (it’s possible this tip pertains only to the Irish). 3. Order a small bowl of chili. 4. Find a clean table top (gl) park your arse and open up your spud, cut it up a bit with your plasticware. 5. Dump chili on top, you should fill up the potato boat and still have about half the chili to add later. 6. Apply a glob of sour cream to taste and dietary restrictions. Not only is this the cheapest fast food meal you’ll create, it’s also likely the healthiest, and also likely the most filling, all FTW. SC (Boudicca I guess I’ll taje the hit on ‘retching’ my phone didn’t know the word.)

I never learned to count past 3, just fake it

The mere inference that someone is building a pasta sauce without browning some ground beef (or what-EVVAH) is enough to make Sir Creep too weak from wretching as to get angry.

I’m no mathmagician, but we’ve had three hits total with a Y-Dub unique, and Death Impends has three scores? Interesting. Wasn’t a unique then?

Yes well I still don’t get it. Alls you did was post the news story which was presented as legit, sans snarky mocking smarmy contradictory commentary. Thus you posted it as legit. You had no point other than advancing a legit news story that I see. Direct me otherwise. SC

I'm disheartened that someone CLEARLY say my tractor pull champion John Hileman, switched a few letters around, and claimed the find as their own. SC

The Police Command in Edo has confirmed the killing of Dr. Omoruyi Igbagbon, former lecturer at the College of Education, Ekiadolor, near Benin, by gunmen. The deceased who retired from the institution where he taught Mathematics about eight months ago, was shot last Saturday night in his residence in Benin. SC

The killings of three people this week in Arizona are thought to be related and authorities are investigating the death of a fourth person to see whether it is connected. The victims include famed forensic psychiatrist Steven Pitt, who was involved in several high-profile cases, including the investigation into the death of child beauty queen JonBenét Ramsey in 1996. He was found shot dead in Phoenix on Thursday after witnesses heard a loud argument and gunshots, officials said. The other victims were 48-year-old Veleria Sharp and 49-year-old Laura Anderson, two paralegals at a Scottsdale law firm who were killed Friday afternoon. SC

Saw that article, he wasn’t reading shit without glasses I assure you. Pure whoring photo op.

Thought he meant Feldman more as a conspiracy theorist and/or attention whore (See: I got stabbed). Could be wrong.

Welcome aboard.

Never too soon to look ahead to MMMDP 2019, seems The Office of National Statistics says the average security guard dies at the age of 62 - when the average life expectancy in the UK is 79.2 years for men and 82.9 years for women. So I’m going to keep a list of security guards in 65+ age bracket. SC

James Schaefer, who spent the past eight years as a South Dakota state representative, was one of two people killed Tuesday in a crash near Kennebec involving a utility vehicle and a passenger car. He was 79. SC

...but what a moniker! Dick Tuck, the Democratic Party prankster-at-large, who bedeviled Barry M. Goldwater, Richard M. Nixon and other Republicans with bad-news fortune cookies, a comely spy, a treacherous little old lady and other campaign-trail tomfoolery, died on Monday in Tucson. He was 94. SC

Sorry for being pedantic, but noticed Elaine ‘Spanky’ McFarlane—whom I love dearly and whoever chose her should be shot on sight—is posted under the letter “S”, whereas M seems correct as I see it. SC

Irving Sandler, an art critic who drew on his extensive relationships with living artists to compile authoritative histories of Abstract Expressionism and the artistic movements that followed, died on Saturday in Manhattan. He was 92. The cause was cancer, his wife said. He had been in hospice care. SC

Very nice write-up but not an obit, Bill Phipps. SC
