Speaking of which, has there been any update on Princess Bajrakitiyabha of Thailand since her heart attack?

I'll take Violeta Chamorro

Any time, eh? 1924 - Shmuel Kamenetsky / Betty Cooke 1925 - Mahathir Mohamad / Reuma Weizman 1926 - Peter Marshall / Qi Xin 1927 - Doc Severinsen / Mindy Carson 1928 - James Watson / Ruth Westheimer 1929 - Jürgen Habermas / Imelda Marcos 1930 - Theodore McCarrick / Tu Youyou 1931 - Irwin Winkler / Barbara Eden 1932 - Bob Packwood / Naina Yeltsina 1933 - George J.

TBF, an 86 year old with a laundry list of sports injuries didn't even make the DDP.

Thread for current Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. He had heart surgery last year, his country is at war, and he's been at the center of political scandals for decades.

Moorhead C. Kennedy Jr., one of the more notable Americans captured in the Iranian Hostage Crisis, died earlier this month at 93.

I assumed Francis Ford Coppola had his own thread for years. He's 85 years old and directed some of the most iconic films ever made.

Dabney Coleman is a hit for @tracy.

I was going to post here anyways, so I'll kill two birds with one stone: January: Norman Jewison February: Carl Weathers / Nikolai Ryzhkov March: Joe Lieberman April: OJ Simpson May: Ebrahim Raisi June (so far): Willie Mays

Alice Munro straight to QO: https://www.theguardian.com/books/article/2024/may/14/alice-munro-nobel-winner-and-titan-of-the-short-story-dies-aged-92

Its "rival" site Movie Dude is back up.

Bert Griffin wrote a book about the Commission last year. He looks and sounds great for his age in interviews.

John Barbata of The Turtles and Jefferson Airplane/Starship dead at 79.

Roger Corman and Corey Williams are hits.

Jim Simons dead at 86. He was an accomplished mathematician who quit his job at MIT to become the richest hedge fund manager in the world.

Conservatorship granted. The big takeaway from the article is as follows:

*insert Baby joke here*

CAS member Wan Huilin dead at 86.

Viola Fletcher, one of two living survivors of the Tulsa Race Massacre, is 110 today.

I'll be seeing John Cleese on tour in a few weeks. I'll let you all know how he's doing.
