#17 for me. Short of last year's 20, however. But hey, there's still time! In all seriousness, I thought he would go last year. Almost saw 2022.

I had no idea he was that old. That's not a bad call at all.

RIP to a great man. The dude could have died in his 20's, or many times after that, yet he made it to extreme old age and still pretty much had his marbles up until the end. It was a life very well-lived, indeed. It also finally gives me my 16th hit, as I cooled down considerably from hitting on so many names in the first part of the year. I also agree that Cheney absolutely needs to be on the 2022 list. As I've mentioned before, he's running out of shelf life on that heart that was transplanted into him; if he's still around in March, that will be the 10-year mark with that heart.

Just watched the 60 Minutes piece as well. Kudos to the show for not trying to shy away from the realities of his disease, but at the same time not taking away from his dignity. He's a remarkable man. Also, bless his wife for taking care of him so dutifully. It does seem like he may only have a year or 2 to go, at most.

I, too, didn't love all of his standup work. But he was one of the better talk show guests you could ever want to watch, just naturally funny in that setting. Other comics revered him as one of the true greats, and he was certainly unique.

If he got the virus from his wife and he ends up dying from it, that really should be worth bonus points in pools! But it does seem like he'll be OK.

His wife is unvaccinated? Interesting. Wonder what the preexisting condition could be. In any case, it sounds like they made an informed decision about it.

Good call on Odenkirk from arghton.

The inspiration for my handle is gone. RIP, sir.

Clinton, as we've long discussed, has heart problems and looks frail. (Sounds hoarse all the time, too.) Bush is the same age as Clinton and looks significantly better. Bush looks very good for a 74-year-old man. Obama has aged too, but still looks pretty good for 59.

Yeah, Elder doesn't look like he has a lot of time left, unfortunately.

She had a good run. I may have mentioned before (perhaps on the Olivia de Havilland thread?) that I had a great aunt who lived just shy of her 105th birthday as well.

Yeah, that's fair. I guess you never know if that could shorten his life. He doesn't look aged from it, though, and never really did, honestly.

Good call by those who thought he could be in trouble. Growing up, I remember him as one of Schwarzenegger's cohorts in The Running Man. I know he did a lot more than that, obviously.

If you google "(insert name here) celebrity net worth", it comes up. And I was mistaken, as Collins has $50MM according to that site.

I mean, Stewart is worth $20MM, Collins is worth $30MM, and Liza is worth $50MM, so they all have plenty of money.

Alana Stewart is 75? Just from this picture, I would have thought that she was about 15-20 years younger than Liza. Joan Collins continues to look great for her age.

So far there is no evidence that he was impaired. As for the specific nature of his injuries, you can see the direct quote from the doctor within a Twitter post that Tiger's people put out there. Sounds like he is going to have a long road to recovery, but at least he's alive.

As Rush started his career as a Top 40 radio DJ, it's only fitting that he goes out as my #1 hit for 2020.

Holy hell, I didn't even see that he kicked the bucket. I thought it was obvious that he was circling. Another hit.

Not if you like your women in that Tiffany Trump vein, with the duck lips and the nose more narrow than a pinkie! For real, I agree, she looks hideous.

I second that. There's a good chance he's at death's door.

My list dropping like flies.

Pretty much an automatic pick once Michael Spinks tweeted what he did in late December. Hit #7 for me. RIP, Champ.

Dammit. Just a brilliantly talented performer, and this is a big loss. May he rest in peace.
