    Ideas And Possibilities For 2018

    Well, I've cited him at least ten times in the last months, along with his mates Dawda Jawara, Daniel Arap-moi, Girma Wolde-Giorgis and, obviously, Robert Mugabe. Some of them would be very good riddances.

    He's a real American and of course it will be a sad day.

    Derby Dead Pool 2017

    Patience has its limits, it seems.
  4. French musicologist Henry-Louis de La Grange has died aged 92. Nothing to do with mathematics. https://www.francemusique.fr/chanson/henry-louis-de-la-grange-est-mort-specialiste-gustav-mahler

    Sir John Hurt

    John Hurt is 2017's Alan Rickman. And they were both great actors.

    Silvio Berlusconi

    He has spent last weekend in hospital for checks, after suffering cardiac arrhytmia. He has been already dismissed anyway. http://www.today.it/citta/berlusconi-silvio-ospedale.html

    Won't 5 star cake walk the next ones? Yes. And they will reveal themselves for the bunch of morons they are.

    Oh, when I saw this updated...

    Donald J Trump

    May may be an ass-kisser, but I like the fact Trump is actuating his electoral campaign program, and I respect him for that, prescinding from the results.

    Stan Lee

    I can see him dying some time before his 100th birthday, like Carl Barks did. They are phisically similar, too.
  11. Drol Sr. was hospitalized last week for respiratory troubles, linked to his emphysema (a family genetic feature). Already discharged and back to drink all the day.

    Horrible cartoon.
  13. Italian character actress Gisella Sofio has died aged 85. First time I hear her name, but she got obits from the most important newspapers and journalistic agencies. http://www.ansa.it/sito/notizie/cultura/cinema/2017/01/27/morta-gisella-sofio-grande-caratterista_06991741-a923-45ee-a12d-d8e39f8d07f2.html

    Last Word

    She got plenty of Italian obits, but she was not a celebrity here. Paradoxically, Rhoda was transmitted more than Mary Tyler Moore in the 80s.

    Insisting with him is pathetic, like people who keep putting Wilko Johnson in their lists.

    Ideas And Possibilities For 2018

    Never trusted him. Will trust him when he will be an obese 50 years old with 10 different types of cancer, seventeen strokes and blocked arteries.

    Queen Elizabeth II

    I think the Queen will die after photos are finished and Deathray won't live 1000 years, while she will. So it's only for a short 40 - 50 years period.

    Youguang? Now that's a surprise.

    Thoughts On The 2017 List

    MTM was a complete surprise. Low hanging fruits are all still alive and ready to go.

    On the Denis Healey thread? Have you ever seen them together?

    Thoughts On The 2017 List

    No Gord Downie? He seems a dead cert by all the standards. I kept myself to 15 as that is the record but I think he was one of the twenty that I dropped. One of the more ill than famous picks. Christie is more ill than famous as well. Cheap picks which will contribute to a relatively huge score.

    Silvio Berlusconi

    Last time was in 2013 and they were inconclusive. We may just ask Mugabe to run our country too.

    Political Frailty

    No. But I presumed you already knew that.

    Denis Healey

    I'm always surprised by Clive Bossom being still alive. Don't know why but he's one of the names whose deaths I expect to see reported here every morning after I wake up.

    Silvio Berlusconi

    On trial for the third time, accused of mantaining prostitutes with lots of money (what's wrong in it?). Still has the guide of his party and may run to become Prime Minister again if elections will be held sooner or later. http://www.ansa.it/lombardia/notizie/2017/01/26/ruby-ter-nuove-accuse-a-cav_82f9f81d-3dfb-4d12-bcfa-dced1fe4224d.html
