Impressive how Remco Evenepoel, with less than a second's thinking time, managed to bunny hop over that ditch at around 40 mph before coming to grief.

Less of that please!
We've had complaints.

Thanks and bad luck on one of your picks finding the back of the net just as the final whistle was blown. Hope you come back stronger next year

Good luck Sir Creep.
Both of my subs were used late last night. My joker, Sheriff Lacy Rogers, jumped the starting gun and I fell victim to one of those news bots which provided a seemingly contemporaneous account of Nicholas Lloyd Webber's critical ill health.

I must have seen him at least a couple of times with Fairport. Reading through Conway's Wiki page, that's quite a CV.

I wonder how Camilla's public profile will evolve over the next year or so? She seems like a bit of a trooper and her visibility will increase as she stands in for Charles. Big Archers fan as well.

An article on why my beloved Exeter City, who haven't sacked a manager in over twenty years, are unlikely to feature on this thread much.

As he's on my cup squad, I'd liken that to a straight red card.

Issa was a pick for A Pelican in the Wilderness on the DDP, who will soar to new heights if points are awarded. Hamas have confirmed he is dead.

My baby, KKK, was taken away.In an attempt to learn from others, here is the original Facebook post (embedded) about KKKs liver condition. There isn’t a single search term that anyone would use to find this. I would chalk it up to dumb luck but not when @DevonDeathTrip is involved. What the hell — do you have time to search every known ailment? Who the hell searches ‘liver disease’ or any non cancer specific disease — not that it matters, she never said liver disease, only ‘battling a liver problem’. Even if you searched ‘liver disease’ this wouldn’t pop up. I want to know how you found this.
"Deteriorating Health" is a good search term. In my experience African media seem to use it as a euphemism for "about to drop dead", hence me including our man Kabobo when I saw this at the end of February.

I was wondering if there was any information on the whereabouts of Colleen McCabe, the former nun who became a headmistress and was jailed for stealing £500k of her school’s budget by using a corporate credit card. The trail seems to have gone very cold since her release from prison in late 2005. She was rather heavy set at the time of her conviction and would be in her 70s now.
I did wonder if she might have re-entered a convent.
She was played by Pauline Quirke in a BBC drama about her misdeeds

Not sure where you'd put it instead though.
Fear not, Deathlist has a thread for most occasions

Sad about Karl Wallinger. Is It Like Today was a thing of beauty.
The Flying Burrito Brothers, in all of their incarnations, have 56 members on their Wikipedia entry, 28 of whom have blue links.

Every boy in my generation had a phase as a child where they were insanely into DBZ, and its popularity across Japan, the English speaking world, and Latin America cannot be understated.
Am I the only person who's never heard of him or his creation?

Some talk on Reddit that octogenarian psychonaut Phil Lesh, still rocking at 84, had to be helped on and off stage, needed a chair and someone to assist with getting his bass guitar strap over his head at his most recent gig.

I spent far too much time when I should have been researching yesterday looking at former Bozeman City Commissioner I Ho Pomeroy's grill takeaway menu.
I'll have the spicy ramen and a seaweed salad if anyone's buying.

My team will be in soon. I love this annual trawl of obscure, comatose notables

Hoffman’s tweet above is accurate. His books on history were some of the best ever written. He let himself down once he tried to revise the image of Hitler and disappeared down a rabbit hole of asking too many questions about the Holocaust. His original books are still excellent reads and give an incredible insight into various periods of history.I'm not sure about that. The Destruction of Dresden (1963) always seemed a pretty myopic account of events to me. Although lauded at the time of publication, my understanding is that more recently it has been found that Irving based his findings on a forged Nazi document and long interviews with a single witness who had his own agenda when describing what he saw.
I haven't read his other works though.

Jailed extremist, MH17 bomber and Putin critic Igor Girkin is unlikely to see out his four year sentence IMO. A unique pick and joker for DDP high flyers A Pelican in the Wilderness.
Article here about some other incarcerated Russian troublemakers who probably eye their daily gruel with some suspicion.

Ah right. It's so rare that I get hits on the HDP that the excitement got to me.
I'm also cutting down on nuns in this pool.

Sharon Osbourne

@The Old Crem I have hidden your most recent post as, yet again, you have chosen to regurgitate a tweet and plaster it here with no context whatsoever. The tweet has no information about Sharon Osborne's health and you haven't even bothered to type anything which may indicate why it might be interesting.
If you want to have another go, you're welcome. You seriously need to work on your quality control though!
