    Queen Elizabeth II

    Local supermarkets ran out of buntin and decorations quite early. People bought every jubilee-themed item two days after they set it up and that was two weeks before today. Yesterday, only the local marks and spencer had stuff left, just those musical shortbread tins for 8 quid each and some overpriced but cute chocolate corgis. Not sure if people bought too enthusiastically or the supply was very limited, but if there isn't more decorations it might be because all was sold out.

"It is very difficult for him to breathe, his lungs are in bad shape; he is conscious, they have not had to sedate him, but Antonio Resines has had cancer, a heart attack, and that contributes to the fact that they have to be watching him 24 hours a day. The important thing, he is conscious, and he is improving, "said journalist Rosa Villacastín on TVE.

    Milan Kundera

    I remember reading the book of laughter and forgetting many years ago and I enjoyed it, but I don't remember much of it other than it being a compilation of short stories, a lot of political drama and weird sex scenes (one of which involved a man that smelled like gherkins).

    Authors Last A Long Time, But....

    Yeah, Fifty shades was originally a Twillight fanfic, but to me that trilogy is not more or less nasty than any random harlequin romance novel with semi-naked Fabio Lanzoni on the cover. Overused tropes, nothing new. It was annoying that it grew way more popular than those other books, though.

    Authors Last A Long Time, But....

    RIP. I remember she was against fanfiction, and tried to stop people on the internet from writing fanfiction based on her novels and take down the ones that were already written. I wonder if people will start writing fanfics now that she passed away.

    Prince Philip Duke Of Edinburgh

    I think being inside a bulky land rover helps. The other car was a Kia, no wonder. I agree about the last sentence.

    Juan Carlos I of Spain

    https://elpais.com/elpais/2018/03/14/gente/1521028007_024539.html King Juan Carlos will return to the operating room The father of Felipe VI will be intervened again in April to solve a problem in the prosthesis of his right knee Don Juan Carlos de Borbón, who last January turned 80, will go through the operating room again in April because of a problem, again, in his right knee. It will be the surgical intervention number 15 to which the King emeritus is submitted. In June 2011, the doctors put a prosthesis on that knee that they are now forced to touch up due to the mobility problems that they are creating. Don Juan Carlos has spent five years helping himself first with crutches and then with a cane to move around. The King emeritus has always downplayed these things to what he calls "screw problems" and ensures good health. He doesn't want to lose to Prince Phillip it seems

    Juan Carlos I of Spain

    Yes. He is a sex addict. At the momento, he has more than 30 illegitimate sons and daughters. The oldest of them is in her fifties right now and lives in Switzerland, where she's being taken care of at the taxpayer expense. She's mentally challenged, as are some others, Infanta Elena for example. As a Bourbon, what can you expect after centuries of inbreeding? He's also bloodthirsty. He loves hunting and bullfighting. Tell it to Alfonso de Borbon y Borbon, or Sandra Mozarowsky. The former King of Spain might be close to kick the bucket. Workers from Zarzuela palace report that he's not able to walk anymore without help. That he holds onto furniture to move through the palace. He gets lost in his own house. http://www.zoomnews.es/sites/default/files/images/201309/don_juan_carlos_rey_getty_230913.jpg He looks like theres nothing there anymore. A month ago, his abscence on the 40th anniversary of the first democratic elections after Franco's regime wasn't unnoticed, could that be because of health problems?. He loses his temper too frequently and he doesnt even care anymore if he's in public. He had a fit of rage because his driver "didn't even know how to park properly". Some weeks ago he shouted to an associate of his in the middle of a restaurant because journalists appeared and he considered it was his fault. He talks nonsense too often lately. Anyway, keeping in mind that he's always been a drunkard that never worked in his life and his genes are defective, I'd say it'd be a miracle if he makes it to 2018. If he manages to achieve it, he'd be a good candidate for next year's list. Just sayin. About Don Juan Carlos vs Prince Phillip, I'd say the former has way more chances of... winning? Despite being younger (He'll be 80 in january).
