They're coming outta the goddamn walls!

Even if he was 15 years younger, he'd be older than Milkha Singh.

Legendary Indian sprinter Milkha Singh tests positive, but his condition is stable. Would be ironic of he was outlived by his older pal Fauja.

Finally discharged.

Discharged.

Nah, you will be gone by the end of the day.

China lost two of its brightest minds today. Agronomist Yuan Longping, who developed hybrid rice in the 70s and was considered a national hero, died at 90. Yesterday rumours of death began to circulated, but where dispelled by the hospital, which said Yuan was however "not in a good way". He died this morning of multiple organ failure. He was quite well last year as I recall he was put in a committee to fight COVID. Surgeon Wu Mengchao has died at 98. Considered the father of hepatobiliary surgery in China, he was operating until 2018. After his retirement his health quickly declined and he was hospitalized last October with multiple health issues, which prompted me to pick him in Arghton's One for Country Game, now defunct. According to reports he spent the last months bedridden watching Tom & Jerry. Despite his conditions being irreversible he never lost his optimism.

Process to stop because Berlusconi is seriously ill.

Brief list of living over 90 henchmen of Kim. Don't use this for deadpools as they won't die. 1)Ri Yong-suk (1916): took care of little Kim Jong-il during the Korean War and got rewarded with a place at the Supreme People's Assembly. Considered the last notable survivor of the war against Japanese. 2)Kim Yong-ju (1922): Kim Il-sung's younger brother, with an extensive history of heart disease dating back to the 70s. Last seen in full shape in 2015 and presumed to have appeared in public until some time later. Was still able to walk unaided and lost the extra weight he had in the 90s. ?)Jong Chang-ryol (1923): not seen or heard since 2010. 3)Ri Yong-mu (1925): old VMAR who still pops up at public gatherings once in a while. Rumoured to have been seriously ill in the past and had very long absences from the public eye. 4)Yang Hyong-sop (1925): former head of state who still holds considerable power. Rumoured to be ill in 2017, he actually makes frequent appearances and seems much younger than his actual age. 5)Kim Yong-nam (1928): former head of state, now quite out of the public eye, but appeared as recently as January. Nothing wrong with him apparently and lost his place due to generational reshuffle rather than failing health. 6)O Kuk-ryol (1930): DPRK cadet of a prestigious military family. Now in a wheelchair. 7)Choe Yong-rim (1930): former premier who has apparently the worst health of the group. His prolonged absences are quite unexplicable, but he managed to resurface in 2019. 8)Choe Thae-bok (1930): former speaker of the Supreme Assembly. Looks much younger than his age and won't go anytime soon. 9)Kim Il-chol (1933): sacked Minister of Defence who was rumoured to have been executed. Reappeared suddenly in 2019, visiting industries and joining Hwang Sun-hui's funeral committee. 10)Kim Ki-nam (1934): propaganda chief of the regime. 11)Hyon Chol-hae (1934): extremely frail Marshal of KPA. 12)Pak Ui-chun (1935): former Foreign minister.

Weekend at Silvio's.

Bruno Covas seems to be a goner, as he is receiving hospice care and death is likely imminent.

I disagree on Zhu Rongji, he has tried to modernize the country and spent his career battling hardliners.

Hospitalised .

If he is alive in one year from now he will join the list.

Rumours that Curtis Fuller (wiki) has died at 86.

Martinique politician Jean Maran dead at 101. EDIT: birthday death.

Aaaaaand.... improving!

Soon, very soon.

As a successor for the cranky crook televangelist lifetime award I'd suggest Ezekiel Guti (wiki), Zimbabwean televangelist and notorious land/money grabber, who just turned 98. Also sect lead... bishop Paul Mwazha (wiki) will be 103 in October and the battle for succession has already started.

And his Olympic teammate M K Kaushik is dead at 66, while the rest of the team goes for a rapid check-up.
