http://kabochan.blog.jp/archives/41810005.html Here's a blog post from today. and as I mentioned, Maru the box cat is probably the only other very known meme animal from the early 2010s/late 2000s alive

gcreptile and Joey Russ at three points

I'm still going for Marcos, but Dole, d'Estaing and Trebek seem to be near at their ends too

As an European I'd say Kirk Douglas. Kobe wasn't that known atleast where I live.

September 21st.

God damn it, not the best time to die, Ruth. Can't blame her for it though.

Like Bob Dole would say, Bob Dole isn't going anywhere soon.

Heikki A. Reenpää, longtime owner of the Finnish publisher Otava and ww2 vet, known for being Marshal of Finland Baron C.G.E. Mannerheim's car driver and a friend of wartime president of Finland Risto Ryti and for his long "colorful" life has died at age 98. https://yle.fi/uutiset/3-11551769 https://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heikki_A._Reenpää

Paavo Lipponen, somewhat notable Finnish pm, possibly worked with Stasi and in a frail and weak condition. Only 79, but won't probably be here for long. Jackie Stallone, nearly 99 and god knows how many percent plastic. Gates dad was included too so I am hopefully not killed for suggesting this name. Kenneth Kaunda, would be a good next "old african leader" on the list after the passing of a couple of them. 96 but seems to be in a good condition. Who knows though. Tsar Simeon II, last tsar. Only 83 though. Maybe including one of the main young reformers of Yuri Andropov could get on the list, as they're all getting old. Mikhail Gorbachev is "only" 89, Nikolai Ryzhkov will be 91 in 10 days and Yegor Ligachyov is approaching his 100th birthday

According to this site he died in 2017 https://www.post-gazette.com/news/obituaries/2017/12/21/Donald-Goldstein-historian-university-of-pittsburgh-world-war-II-at-dawn-we-slept-air-force-1/stories/201712210162

Russian neo-nazi, anti-LGBT "activist", restruct movement and format 18 founder Maxim Martsinkevich found dead in an isolution unit at 36. http://rapsinews.com/judicial_news/20200916/306278600.html

Imelda Marcos

Former president of Mali, Moussa Traoré has died. He was 83. https://www.rfi.fr/fr/afrique/20200915-mali-l-ancien-président-moussa-traoré-est-décédé

I often enjoy dark, pure rye bread, nothing on it with dark coffee. In my opinion, coffee is at it's best if it tastes what one thinks oil would taste

I'd say you'll still get a point, because there is a wikipedia that explains him and his life. It's a very rare case and on the border. Thought of this same thing while making my own list. I was going to add "doge" Kabosu but didn't, as the wikipedia article explains the life of Kabosu but isn't 100% about the dog. Some things may be tricky because of the amount of names, but we'll sure going to see a lot of deaths on these lists soon. I've only gotten one hit. Two not very known terrorists have died "off radar" and only mentioned on the wikipedia pages after I made the list, so I've replaced them.

Though at 94, death can come pretty quickly and suddenly

Jörn Donner smoked around 40 cigarettes from 1951 to 2006 and drank a lot of alcohol. He died right at the beginning of this year. Had three or four cancers, COPD and heart problems. Lived to 86

I've been wondering how many people have died waiting for this man to die, looking forward for news like "Duke of Edinburgh dead at 74". Probably thousands.

Grand Ayatollah Yousef Saanei, called "Iran's most liberal Grand Ayatollah" has died according to wikipedia at age 82. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yousef_Saanei Here's an article about him from 2015 https://qz.com/569314/talking-politics-diabetes-and-socks-with-irans-most-liberal-grand-ayatollah/ Seems to have been a great person. He thought that women could some day be Grand Ayatollahs too.

Has there been any news about Bouteflika lately?

I'm not sure about people aged 95+ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Lawson_(British_Army_officer) But Richard Lawson, GOC in Northern Ireland during the Troubles is going to be 94 and he and Kitson are the only Generals born in the 1920s left, I think From the USA, Harry E. Goldsworthy (born 1914, 106) is probably the oldest Lt.Gen alive Also, Lt.Gen William Carr, called the "father of modern Canadian Air Force" is still alive and 97 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Keir_Carr

Baron Inge looks like a 90 year old in that wikipedia picture from 2007.

Here you can reveal the cast of your favourite movie(s) and game(s). I'd be glad if you told us the roles and maybe the dates of birth and possible dates of death, too. I shall start.

The cast is the following: Peter Haber (b. 1952) - Martin Beck Mikael Persbrandt (b. 1963) - Gunvald Larsson Stina Rautelin (b. 1963) - Lena Klingström Per Morberg (b. 1960) - Joakim Wersén Ingvad Hirdwall (b. 1934) - Beck's neighbour Rebecka Hemse (b. 1975) - Inger (Martin Beck's daughter) Fredrik Ulveldt (b. 1961) - Jens Loftgård Michael Nyqvist (1960 - 2017) - John Banck Lennart Hjulström (b. 1938) - Gavling, crime boss, "the money man" Lasse Lindroth (1972 - 1999) - Peter, Inger's boyfriend Bengt Nilsson (b. 1967) - Leonard Peter Hüttner (b. 1945) - Oljelund Additional: Music by Ulf Dageby (b. 1944), original book writers Per Wahlöö (1926 - 1975) and Maj Sjöwall (1935 - 2020) Game - Team Fortress Two (2007) Heavy and Demoman - Gary Schwartz (b. 1952) Engineer - Grant Goodeve (b. 1952) Scout - Nathan Vetterlein (b. 1982) Medic - Robin Atkin Downes (b. 1976) Spy and Pyro - Dennis Bateman (b. 1960) Soldier - Rick May (1940 - 2020) Sniper - John Patrick Lowrie (b. 1952) The Administrator - Ellen McLain (b. 1952) Miss Pauling - Ashly Burch (b. 1990) Multiple small roles - Nolan North (b. 1970) Ap-Sap - Stephen Merchant (b. 1974)

Both Klenberg's successor and predecessor as the Chief of Defence of the Finnish Defence Forces are interesting people. Jaakko Valtanen, ww2 vet (1925-2024) is still in a pretty good shape at 94 and is pretty known here. Valtanen is known for sending Finnish UN peacekeepers into the middle east and opposing the 60s hippie movement. Gustav Hägglund (born 1937) was a commander of UNIFIL, was involved in the arab-israeli conflict of 1978 and known for his hate towards overweight women, investing in a pyramid scheme in 2008 and hunting animals in Africa. First Chairman of the European Union Military Committee 2001-2004
