    One who is not mentioned enough is Brian Murphy. He as a cult icon in Italy due to George & Mildred in the early 80s.

    I watch it at dinner time on a channel called "Cielo". A no-brainer program, but quite entertaining.

    She was on a few episodes of Storage Wars, which is the top of American culture. Quirky as hell.

    Ideas and Possibilities for 2020

    Christmas updates! 1)Prince Philip: Discharged, walking on his own. Not going anywhere. 2)Daniel arap Moi: No updates, still in hospital. 3)Gorbachev: Fully recovered, about to be discharged. 4)Vishwesha Teertha: Miracolously recovered from a myriad of health issues (usual Indians, seriously), to be taken off life support in the next few days and life not in danger anymore. 5)Shin Kyuk-ho: Still in hospital, but life not in danger. Plus I'd add Manolis Glezos, who has been hospitalized again but said to be responding to treatment, and another always-ill name who seems finally close to demise this time, but won't say for Deathrace interests.

    The article is one month old and he has been sick for years. Does not sound like anything immediate.

    African Leaders - Despots and Democratic

    One of the last Ministers of Moi's first cabinet, Charles Rubia, is dead at 96. Moi had him jailed and tortured in the 80s. The survivors of Moi's first cabinet are: *Moi *Mwai Kibaki (1931), has been in frail health for years. *Charles Njonjo (1920), still going strong, but incredibly old for a fat man. *Henry Kosgey (1947), had troubles with justice for over a decade. *James Charles Nakhwanga Osogo (1932) *Daniel Musyoka Mutinda (1942)

    Prince Philip Duke Of Edinburgh

    They said the same things about Daniel arap Moi. Three months later he is still in hospital and his health "not at best".

    Ask A Deathlister

    Yes, I suspected it is my problem. Or my zone problem. Wait and it usually will work again.

    Ask A Deathlister

    Has it never happened to you that, independently on what you search, Google is not able to find "last hour/last 24 hours" results when you use the search tools? It's been happening from yesterday morning for the first time, and it seems not to be linked with accounts, or anonymous navigation, or Browser I'm using (Google Chrome).

    Phillips has definitely outlived the odds. He is one of the miracles of medicine we have the opportunity to witness here.

    Scientists, Inventors And Techno Wizards

    In a year that has been harsh to veteran computer scientists (George Felton and Conway Berners-Lee spring to mind) legendary MOS computer designer Chuck Peddle has died aged 82 (yes, the source sucks, but there are better ones available).

    Ideas and Possibilities for 2020

    So, the last list of gravely ill hospitalized people has been a complete failure as everyone survived. Anyway, here we go again, hoping for a better result: 1)Prince Philip of Edinburgh: hospitalized for a pre-existing condition, seems nothing serious, but he is fucking 98 and late GD Jean of Luxembourg was hospitalized too just for precaution at the same age.... we all know how it ended. Still unlikely for now. 2)Daniel arap Moi: In hospital for months and has been on life support. Family now confirming he is gravely ill, rather than going with the usual "routine check-up". Could still hang there for months. 3)Mikhail Gorbachev: should have died years ago, somehow still here. In hospital for pneumonia, but about to be discharged. Still, has definitely beat the odds and there shouldn't be much time life. 4)Vishwesha Teertha: an important Karnataka Swami, currently on life support for respiratory failure. We already know a Swami who lived to 111 though... 5)Shin Kyuk-ho: this guy goes in and out of hospital continuosly. At 98 the fraudster is currently hospitalized, but said to be recovering all over again. It is clear his condition has deteriorated decisively in the last year.

    African Leaders - Despots and Democratic

    Moi's son gives an update on Mzee's health. Moi is "not in the best health", but he has been "improving day by day". I'm very conservative on these matters, but it does not look too good for the cranky dictator. He has been hospitalized for over a month and has been in and out of hospital in the last year, particularly since September. At the beginning of December they said he would be discharged in days, there's now no hint at a possible release. Basically means he has not improved at all and considering he spent some time on life support, this could not be a good sign. Next years seems a concrete possibility.

    Who Should Be On The 2020 Deathlist?

    Exalted twat. Hate speech should be sanctioned, expecially with threats like in your post.
