Political Frailty?

I want this thread to be used only for announce George Blake's death! Damn you all!

Blog about snooker?

She died of aspiration pneumonia, which was also the CoD of Lee Teng-hui and Stan Lee and almost killed Dilip Kumar twice. People who suffer from it are usually very frail. I guess The Queen of Technicolor spent her last years bedridden and in failing health.

I tipped Variety.

Ah, only time before it came...

Gosh, didn't realize this guy is legendary: lung cancer survivor, was diagnosed with kidney cancer in 2001 (aged 86) and also a recurrence of lung cancer with multiple pleural effusions.

"Legend"...

Discharged.

Weren't you a throat cancer survivor? Or do I remember wrong?

Are you considered at risk?

Vasily Kulkov dead. Hit for me in the AODP, thanks to @Etushispushingupdaisies.

Thich Nhat Hahn stable and there is no cause of concern.

Discharged.

1)I said multiple times he was born in 1922. So you have to wait two more years before an eventual centenarian birthday spread from the Young Leader. 2)I also said I'll wait till a certain hypothetical age of him to take him off if his death is not announced. 3)Stop bumping this thread for no apparent reason

Penrose is an absolute legend and deserved it. I know him mainly through his works on tiling, which are fundamental to understand quasicrystals.

COVID again, by the way.
