    Playboy Playmates

    To be fair Dian was involved in quite a few controversies with Bob Barker, but Dian Parkinson is probably one of the most famous models of her time and after staying out of the public for many years, suddenly comes out of nowhere putting up her estate for sale in 2019 is to me a dead giveaway something is up with her, and likely not good. Janice Pennington on the other hand definitely seems to be in great shape, this is her in 2017 with her husband Carlos de Abreu at the Hollywood Film Awards, which was founded by de Abreu.

    Playboy Playmates

    Where is Dian Parkinson (Price is Right model)? I know she was a playboy model as well and I've been trying to find information on her for some time now, has not had a public appearance since literally her exit from the Price is Right, though she sold her estate in 2019 leading me to believe she is probably not in the best of health.

    I just realized that the cast of some of the early Pixar films are pretty old now and damn it makes me realizes time has gone fast. From Toy Story Wallace Shawn (age 78, voice of Rex) Estelle Harris (age 93, voice of Mrs Potato Head) Plenty of the cast from the first movie is dead already. Don Rickles, Jim Varney, R. Lee Ermey etc. From Finding Nemo Barry Humphries (age 87, voice of Bruce the great white shark) Bruce Spence (age 76, voice of Chum the mako shark) Austin Pendleton (age 80, voice of Gurgle the purple fish) Geoffrey Rush (age 70, voice of Nigel the pelican) From Monsters Inc. John Goodman (age 69, voice of Sulley) Billy Crystal (age 73, voice of Mike Wazowski) From Cars Paul Dooley (age 93, voice actor of Sarge) Michael Wallis (age 76, voice actor of Sherriff) Cheech Marin (age 75, voice actor of Ramone. And yes, this is the Cheech from Cheech and Chong) Michael Keaton (age 70, voice actor of Chick Hicks) Additionally two guest star NASCAR drivers (Richard Petty and Darrell Waltrip age 84 and 74 respectviely) as well as NASCAR promoter and former Charlotte Motor Speedway president Humpy Wheeler (age 83). And we can't forget Pixar legend John Ratzenberger, who voiced a character in just about every Pixar film, who is 74.

    Formula 1 & Other Motor Racing

    Interesting. I just called my dad and he has told me about all the F1 races he attended. 13 in total. Also attended the Daytona 500 in 2015 and the Indy 500 in 2011. In order 1985 British Grand Prix 1988 German Grand Prix 1992 British Grand Prix 1994 British Grand Prix 2002 British Grand Prix. After taking a long break from attending events to focus on raising his two children he decided to take me and my brother to our first race. Don't have any memories of this. 2006 British Grand Prix. 2008 Spanish Grand Prix 2010 British Grand Prix. This was our 2nd race and my brother and I were racing fans at this time so we enjoyed watching the race. 2013 Hungarian Grand Prix 2015 British Grand Prix 2016 Spanish Grand Prix 2016 British Grand Prix 2017 Russian Grand Prix. We went to Russia for a vacation and attended the race. This was our 3rd race my brother and I attended with dad and our last F1 race as of now Though my dad and I have not been to have of the tracks you want to go to, I definitely think you should see a different round as well. We are also hoping to do the same thing next year, either attend one of the F1 races in the Middle East or the Americas. Right now our race shortlist is Bahrain, Mexico, Canada and Brazil. Also hoping to attend the Indy 500 next year at least (plan to go by myself). EDIT: Confirmed my ticket for the Indy 500. This is gonna be my first Indy 500 and my first time traveling abroad since the start of the rona.

    Formula 1 & Other Motor Racing

    For those of you who attended F1 races, what has been your most vivid memory of any race? Me and my younger brother attended about 3-4 F1 races in total all with my dad. My dad on the other hand attended way more if I remember, around 10 or 11 races since the 1980s. I enjoyed the races that I attended but don't have any memories that stand out, my dad's favorite memory at an F1 race is the time he was there attending the 1992 British Grand Prix where Mansell won and the fans swarmed to the track because my dad was one of the fans who went on the track to celebrate Mansell's victory.

    The Boys Of '66

    I would also go with Hurst. Hurst is more involved in public life and healthier compared to the others though Paine also seems to be in decent health from a video of him in 2020. Cohen and Eastham have not had public appearances in years, Callaghan did not look great in his last known public appearance in 2016 and Bobby Charlton does not have long left with his dementia

    The Chequered Flag

    I think the old Indycar drivers have done better in longevity and health compared to the F1 and NASCAR drivers. You already mentioned Andretti but I will add he is still in incredible health for his age, still does tours at Indy speedway in a 2-seater Indycar. Gordon Johncock (2 time Indy 500 winner) is still alive and is still in pretty good shape for an 85 year old man. A.J Foyt (4 time Indy 500 winner) has had his close calls with death in recent years (like the time he was attacked by bees for example) but has been doing pretty good as of now and I can see him holding off the grim reaper for a couple more years. Johnny Rutherford (3 time Indy 500 winner) looks incredibly amazing for his age and I definitely do not see him dying any time soon. Al Unser Sr (4 time Indy 500 winner) also appears to be in great health as well seeing his recent photo while attending the 2021 Indy 500. Al's brother Bobby Unser was still in pretty good health around 2 years before his death. Even Parnelli Jones was active 4-5 years ago even though he is now in poor health. Compared to 60s and 70s F1 and NASCAR winners, I think the 60s and 70s Indycar and Indy 500 winners have won the longevity race.

    Deathrace 2022

    Deathrace Form Guide #10 Roger Donlon The 88 year old former army colonel best known as the very first Medal Of Honor recipient during the Vietnam War, is now clearly at the end stage of Parkinson's disease, being frail, barely able to walk (despite assistance) and speak and is mostly home bound. A valuable soldier to pick for any Deathrace side.

    Six people, six months

    Probably too late to join but here goes! These are the six I feel will die in six months. 1. Nichelle Nichols - Uhura from Star Trek. Suffering from dementia and other health problems 2. Roger Donlon - First Medal Of Honor Recipient for the Vietnam War. Clearly now in the end stage of Parkinson's disease 3. Marsha Hunt (born 1917) - Actress and Spino's centenarian pick 4. Brian May - Queen guitarist - Has been in poor health since suffering a heart attack last year 5. Norman Lear - Actor - Just feeling he will fall short of a 100 years old 6. Demi Lovato - Singer - Already survived a drug overdose in 2018 which left her with brain damage and has a history of alcohol and drug abuse, in other words basically a walking nuclear reactor, can explode, meltdown or overload at any time.

    Cricket Thread. Only Mad Dogs And Englishmen

    Got some information from a friend from the West Indies. It turns out my friend has a distant connection to former West Indies player Vanburn Holder who was on the 1975 World Cup Squad and from what my friend knows, Vanburn Holder is not in the greatest of health these days though my friend does not know details. Also worth thinking about his teammates Bernard Julien, who survived cancer in the 2000's, as well as Lance Gibbs and Rohan Kanhai (both aged over 85).

    Simanek looks not as bad as I thought he would actually. Miyamura still the healthiest of the lot though.

    Political Frailty

    Definitely one to consider. He's had health issues before, two heart surgeries, another chest surgery for a partial collapsed lung back in 2005. In general you can definitely see compared to his wife, Bill Clinton is definitely a bit more on the unhealthy side of things.

    The Dead of 2021

    Duane Dewey dead https://www.wcjb.com/2021/10/14/sole-ncfl-medal-honor-recipient-duane-dewey-dies/. Also Roger Donlon's Parkinson's disease and overall health has worsened to the point he cannot walk without assistance and is mostly homebound, appears very frail as well and can barely speak. He was there in an interview and his wife had to do most of the speaking.

    Former Pakistani captain Inzamam Ul-Haq underwent angioplasty after a heart attack https://www.wionews.com/sports/pakistan-great-inzamam-ul-haq-suffers-heart-attack-undergoes-angioplasty-416515
  20. I actually have quite a few famous brief encounters because I live in London and made several visits to the USA (mostly Seattle and Florida) Some of the encounters I remember Zerkaa (The Sidemen). Pretty sure the guy was drunk when I encountered him so did not bother. Sporty Spice (Mel C). Not as bad as an encounter as you would think. Had a brief chat with her then we went our separate ways. Kiwi cricketer Ross Taylor during the Kiwi's tour of England in 2015. Pretty cool guy to have a conversation with. Another cricketer, Alex Hales. Had a nice brief chat with him. Also encountered Newcastle captain Jamaal Lascelles, again he seemed like a nice guy and I quickly said hello to him. Kenny Baker (R2D2). Encountered him couple of years before his death in London. Just an awesome guy, had a great conservation with him and talked about Star Wars and R2D2 stuff (obviously). Definitely my favorite encounter on the list. I also had really, really brief encounters with Matt Helders (Arctic Monkeys) and George Russell (the racing driver), as in I saw them from a distance. If your interested in BGT. Might as well make it known that Marc Spelmann is a distant family friend and I have met him twice, pretty cool guy to hang out with actually.

    Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory marks its 50th anniversary this year. 4 of it's child stars (Paris Themmen, Michael Bollner, Julie Dawn Cole and Peter Ostrum) are still alive and are in their 60s while only one Oompa Loompa (Rusty Goffe, now in his 70s) is left standing. They could be good picks to consider for a death pool team.
