    At popular music festival "Astroworld" in Texas a horror scene unfolded. 8 people are dead (at least, likely to be many more). Due to insane crowds and unprepared medics/security. Travis Scott was the headliner and it featured other popular performers such as Drake. Have been reports of deadly pills/other drugs being spread as well which may have caused some of the injuries/deaths. We shall see as the news unfolds Horrible story. https://abc13.com/astroworld-festival-travis-scotts-houston-crowds-trampled/11203827/ https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/06/us/houston-astroworld-festival/index.html

    Queen Elizabeth II

    Haven't been banned with all comments deleted.....yet. One can guess the Queen lasts longer than your account though!

    Political Frailty

    The narrative is that Bill is recovering from his infection + hospital stay. Seems fairly ominous. I don't think he will die anytime soon, but wouldn't be surprised if he goes within the next 5 years. Certainly won't reach Carter longevity. Cheney looks horrible as well. Didn't notice that first watch through!

    Political Frailty

    Gen. Colin Powell had his funeral service today. Quite a few notable people there and some not. Neither Carter showed up, nor did Bill Clinton (or the Trumps....but that was obvious). Madeleine Albright showed up and looked fairly good. Gave a speech. Neither Henry Kissinger nor James Baker showed up. His wife, Alma Powell, did not look good at all in a wheelchair. She is 84 years old and I'm not sure how long she'll last. Link if anyone cares to watch more closely: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iBES_1ljX5o

    US Ensemble Dramas/HBO Box Set Shows

    I also remember him from M*A*S*H. Which is a show/movie that would have been a good scavenger hunt category once upon a time. Many actors throughout its history. Not many will be left within the next decade though.
  6. It is not that surprising in hindsight. NJ hasn't re-elected a Dem. Governor in 44 years and VA is known to flip parties via Governor every 4 years. The thing that is shocking is how everything in the entire country went along the same lines. Besides a few exceptions, the progressive candidates almost always lost (in the Dem. party), while the Repubs. swept everything else. Joe Biden will need a few tums this morning.

    Queen Elizabeth II

    Everyone seems very desperate to say this is nothing and she is fine. Obviously something is going on. Fatigue is one thing, but it seems like quite a chain of events no? Since Oct. 20th the negative headlines have been steadily building. Wouldn't be surprised if she retires from official duties in the near future.

    Thanks to this amazing list. We know he was the 2nd oldest governor! https://oldestsandlasts.com/index.php?title=List_of_oldest_living_United_States_governors Jimmy Carter is now the oldest living president and second oldest living governor.

    Hospitalised!

    Evidence shows if you are vaccinated and hospitalized for COVID-19 you are better off than unvaccinated. I don't see the issue including that information

    Queen Elizabeth II

    Not saying this is the case, but many spouses that were married long periods of time have been shown to die within a short time frame of each other. Some famous examples are Johnny Cash (Sept. 2003) and his wife June (May 2003) or George H. W. Bush (Nov. 2018) and his wife Barbara (April 2018). I think the Queen seems extremely healthy for her age, but there could be many things behind the scenes we do not know about. One could be her heartbreak over the death of her husband Phillip and the desire to rejoin him.

    That is an extreme amount of weight, even if he went the healthy route via diet and exercise. I don't see anyway that is possible without some underlying health issues, maybe thyroid issues. My gut says that seems a bit like cancer no?

    Alan Arkin is someone else he has been close with in the past. Going to be a week glued to the obits. to see who he is referring too!

    Life In Prison

    Finally got sentenced. That "life" in prison may be a short one. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/14/us/robert-durst-trial-sentence.html (paywall) https://news.sky.com/story/real-estate-heir-robert-durst-jailed-for-murder-of-best-friend-12434065

    Joe Biden

    People let politics influence their views on these two. It is pretty clear Biden is not as sharp as he was previously, however, he is also a 78 year old man who has spent nearly his entire life in politics. It is possible that he has some form of early on-set dementia or other mental related disorder, in fact it is likely given his behavior. That being said, it is pure speculation and people can live many years with such issues as dementia or Alzheimer's as this site shows pretty easily. Trump is an obese, former (or current) drug-user who doesn't look particularly well most of the time. Fairly obvious that 1. Biden should survive not only his term but likely years in the future (death does come for us all eventually though). 2. Trump living another decade is less likely than Biden living another decade

    The Dead of 2021

    He was also a former president of the National Congress of American Indians. They don't get much of the spotlight, but they are a big influencer behind the scenes. There have been 22 presidents total, with Earl Old Person serving as the 6th from 1969-1970. I am not sure if this group has been mentioned here before, but it is quite a rabbit hole to see who is alive and dead!

    Political Frailty

    Dale Kildee has died aged 92 (b. 1929-2021). He was a mainstay in the U.S House of Rep. serving from 1977-2013. The seat he held (Michigan) is now held by his nephew Dan Kildee. Kildee was involved in local state politics since 1965 being a state rep. from 1965-1974 and a state sen. from 1975-1976. Most notable thing he did (in my opinion) was create the Native American Caucus in the House. Kildee was the 29th oldest living House of Rep. (either former or current). https://thehill.com/homenews/house/576613-former-rep-dale-kildee-dies-at-92

    The 100 Club

    I'd say no. Never heard of her till I found this site. Doubt this gets much coverage in the media besides the usual circles. In fact, I doubt she'd get much of a obit, at all if she wasn't so old. Disney legend of course as well, but in America that isn't something most know exists nor care about.

    Ideas and possibilities 2022

    Providing some more info: Smosh is a YouTube channel that was created in 2005. When YouTube was a relatively new concept Smosh was one of the most popular channels on the platform. It has had periods of being the most subscribed channel on YouTube with the last period ending in August of 2013. The person with cancer on the channel is Keith Leak Jr, who is 29. He has been a part of the channel since 2015. It should be noted that Smosh has multiple YouTube channels and he is a key figure in multiple of them (as well as social media and Twitch). https://www.imdb.com/name/nm5820878/ ^ This is his imdb page which will show mainly Smosh credits and a few other small projects. The cancer he has been diagnosed with is Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST). This is an extremely rare and treatable cancer, especially for his age group. If you follow his Instagram page, he has given regular updates and was diagnosed around April 2021. https://www.instagram.com/keithleakjr/ Basically to sum all this up....he has a high chance of being perfectly fine in the long-term.

    Pat Robertson

    Pat Robertson has stepped down from hosting the show he created, The 700 Club. Robertson created the program in 1966, which shifted the (CBN) network from its original Christian programming founded in 1960. He has been the host of the show since 1966, minus a brief few months where he ran for president in 1987-88. The 91 year old gave no advance warning of him stepping down and announced today, October 1st, will be his last on the program. Today is the 60th anniversary of the show starting. His son, Gordon Robertson (age 61) who is also the CEO of the CBN will be taking over hosting duties. They mentioned that Pat may make appearances if the news warrants. The word is that he felt ready to retire and plans to shift towards teaching at a private Christian college he founded in 1977. This seems a bit ominous as it came out of nowhere and he doesn't seem like the type to give up power easily. https://www.washingtonpost.com/religion/2021/10/01/pat-robertson-cbn-700-club-retires-evangelical-gop-republican-presidential-candidate/ https://www.npr.org/2021/10/01/1042401667/700-club-pat-robertson-host-steps-down-christian-talk-show
