My Daily Double's double dose of substitutes, following Ian Smith who is now #1 substitute: former "Breaking Amish" television reality star Mary Schmucker retired professional wrestler Richard "Black Bart" Harris

Awaiting Epiphany, but if it's the same as today I claim 2024 Hartlepool Deadlypool.

In the card text the word game is 'aris', as in 'R S' because it takes two goes to get to the bottom of it. Irving probably follows 'make yourself scarce'. Although my nation counts English as an official language, we pronounce some words differently, even regional differences, and I don't know if 'scarce' rhymes with 'arse' in the GMT area. Geez, I just saw what I did there: 'R S', two, bottom' 'arse'...

not all of them, as some single words begin cards, and I'd need the preceding card for context, and if I could match the cards I'd have the context and a good chance of solving them. The cards unhelpfully do not begin and end with complete sentences. Here are two sentences I can give: "my gender was perhaps anomalous, but is often misidentified; and surely everything else fitted, from the colour of my skin to the sides of my make yourself scarce" "one evening [the victim and his missus] had both been [at home] some time when, finally... their old water, their old morris...[the rhymes with finer series of four] got out."

[ 'einer' rhymes removed, think I got this] morris "make yourself scarce" irving water [TM - thinking this could be 'daughter', 'fisherman's daughter' translates to water, but no verification the converse is true]

Happy New Year! I'm working through John Finnemore's The Researcher's First Murder, because I cannot get enough death. I welcome help from those familiar with Cockney Rhyming Slang, terms I can't find online translation for are perplexing me.

Appropriately the past week has me pulling out spades for digging graves: Carter and Walker

With Jimmy Carter's expiry, Woody Woodbury replaces him, and Peter Yarrow is summoned to third spot on substitute bench.

I haven't received one, and I checked my spam folder and searched for '2025' - alt.obituaries yes, DDP no. I don't believe all previous participants received reminder/invitation email for DDP 2025 with entry template.

Echoing my November 8 update, two of my three substitutes, Arnold Yarrow and Jody Gormley, have left the bench. Joining Woody Woodbury on the wood bench are Ian Smith and Jean-Marie Le Pen. I do not know who died earlier, nor whose obit made public attention earlier, so until informed otherwise my order is as above.

my turtles tricked me this year by having rocket engines under their shells but I will try again, thanks for reprising.
