Italian architect and DDP pick Luigi Caccia Dominioni has died aged 102. http://milano.corriere.it/notizie/cronaca/16_novembre_13/morto-luigi-caccia-dominioni-grande-architetto-dopoguerra-79d8c632-a9aa-11e6-9e75-99cc0b521152.shtml

Sicilian free diver Enzo Maiorca, who was known as a legend in Europe some years ago because of his rivalry with Jacques Mayol, died this morning aged 85. http://www.ilpost.it/2016/11/13/enzo-maiorca-morto-apneista/ He was also Senator between 1994 and 1996.

Obit for Lupita Tovar, who is a hit for most of us. http://www.eluniversal.com.mx/articulo/espectaculos/cine/2016/11/12/muere-lupita-tovar-la-primera-santa-del-cine-sonoro-mexicano

Oh, come on, Trump is a natural born winner. I reckon he will be more moderate/calm than Hillary would have been. Sometimes men who look crazy look crazy only because they are wiser than other men.

Updated for Turki Mishaal is still alive. His death was reported by Saudi press then the reports were later withdrawn. Also Bandar is still alive too. Another prince within the family called Bandar died and there was confusion. So there were 36 brothers all in all. 11 of them alive, 25 of them dead. Stupid Arabs. They die and resurrect in a week. Hate them.

Good riddance, though.

Turkish prince and former Deputy Minister of Defense Turki II bin Abd al-Aziz Al Sa'ud has died aged 82. He was only one year older than the current king Salman... http://www.shemsfm.net/fr/154010/arabie-saoudite-deces-du-prince-turki-ii-onzieme-fils-du-roi-abdelaziz.html

Last three are big deaths, finally. I hope we have not to wait another month to see some.

She's on my "won't die in 2016" list. I was wrong.

Zorders would be happy right now. Sad he's not here to write 10000 pages of political rantings.

Same here. Honestly, the only song I've known him for is Hallelujah. Was he really that influential? To me the worst death in music ever still is and forever will be... Freddie Mercury. That man was a God and there will never be another one like him. Cohen will probably be forgotten very soon. If that's the only one of his songs you know, then I'd say you are in no position to judge. As for Freddie Mercury, he was a great performer, but Leonard's skills were entirely different and the two cannot be compared. 'The rich have got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor, And there's a mighty judgement coming, but I may be wrong' Vs 'Scaramouche, Scaramouche can you do the fandango' Sure not in his bedroom, as he was rich as fuck. Cohen, Dylan, Mitchell, Baez were bad teachers for a whole generation of freaks and they can not be compared (though I know genres are different) to great singers like Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, J. L. Lewis and even Little Richard. Revolution, but not in their backyards, fucking hypocrites with the Morgellons disease.

Renowed Italian oncologist Umberto Veronesi died on November the 8th aged 90. Controversial person, at least regarding his political ideas. http://www.ansa.it/lombardia/notizie/2016/11/10/veronesi-aperta-camera-ardente_0b01f5fd-aee5-4db3-9bd8-35e8e4e42b88.html

3 no obits, 1 famous death, a popular but insignificant pick and Kay Starr. Bad November till now.

Oh, Clinton will win. She is backed by every existing lobby, except from e-mail lobby.

It's like saying cancer vs strokes. I think cancer will win.

He's unknown here as well. I wonder if his family knew him.

Northern Italian lawyer and civil servant Antonio Preto died on November the 3rd aged 51. He was almost unknown in Italy, but it seems that he was very competent in his field. http://www.tgcom24.mediaset.it/cronaca/agcom-e-morto-il-commissario-antonio-preto-e-stato-un-giurista-appassionato-e-un-lavoratore-instancabile-_3039950-201602a.shtml

Hasen't JoeyRuss got in before you with Glynis Johns? Yes I will pick Valentina Cortese instead. I have Valentina Cortese on my list.Unfortunately that's not how it works on 20/20. It's first come first serve and every person is open once someone dies. I see you haven't claimed your team again for this round. Oh, that does not matter. I'm not intentioned to claim it anymore, mainly because I have no time to follow every round of this deadpool. This is not the type of deadpool I can compete in as I find it difficult to follow all the rounds during the week.

Yesterday some kids came to my house and tried to get some sweets. I ate their livers with some fava beans and a nice Chianti.

Lemmy died in 2015.

How are things in Italy, btw. Good to see you're still around! I'll be around for some years I hope. Thanks.

Tina Anselmi, first Italian woman to become Minister, died today aged 89. Forgive me, but I could not stand her. http://www.repubblica.it/politica/2016/11/01/news/morta_tina_anselmi-151062213/
