    Shannen Doherty

    It is mine subtitle. In fact it's quite bad, Breaking up with life would have been better. It is inspired to TV series Breaking up with Shannen Doherty. Nailed it. Anyway, good luck to Tori Spelling in her fight with cancer.

    Derby Dead Pool 2016

    OK, now deaths seem to be at a much slower pace, is it time to suggest minor improvements to the bios? For instance, calling Bill Cosby "squeaky clean" now seems like something of an error.

    Journalists

    No social media updates from Rowena Kincaid since July 17, and she hasn't used Twitter since July 19, but Wales Online has helpfully compiled the last few months worth of RW news into one article for us.

    What Kind Of Person Deadpools?

    Not so much an interest in celebrity culture as an interest in post-celebrity culture. If you find the fact that Frankie Lymon and Bobby Driscoll died within a month of each other worthy of note, then you'll probably find comfort in this hobby.

    I'd never seen the "Doris Day and Friends" episode where Rock Hudson's appearance and slurred speech started gossip columnists speculating about what could be wrong with him, but it's available on YouTube: https://youtu.be/NGjBxx_e_4E
