There's been quite some discussion about audio proof of Trump's recent speeches and his apparently uncontrollable bowel movements. I hate how much I know about him.

I'd "prefer" to see another Atlanta Radio legend die..(:cough: Steve McCoy :cough:)... interesting to see the lady above get a Daily Mail obit though.

Giorgio Armani thinks about retiring in 2-3 years, as he turns 90: https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/modekonzern-giorgio-armani-denkt-mit-90-jahren-ans-aufhoeren-in-zwei-bis-drei-jahren-a-a46466eb-85b0-4de7-b6a7-213ae5f471af (german link)

Lord Monson has 4 months to live with terminal cancer: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13954343/Lord-Monson-terminal-cancer.html Well, once you read past the headline, you realize that he could also live for 4 more years, as it's terminal prostate cancer. So a bit like Frank Field maybe, only younger.

"The Committee has attached special importance to Obama’s vision of and work for a world without nuclear weapons." https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/peace/2009/press-release/ He had given a speech in Berlin before that and such. The prize also came at the very beginning of his administration.

This article describes the situation as "very touch-and-go": https://thenationonlineng.net/critically-ill-ex-green-eagles-goalie-fregene-fights-for-life/ If you touch him, he will go?

Reminds me of the Obama Nobel Prize. When the committee doesn't know what to do, they give it to anti-nuclear bomb people.

Roberta Flack, I have to start somewhere. Preferably next week, followed by Jimmy.

Jamal Yunos, scandal-ridden Malaysian politician is ... probably ... not dead. But he is supposedly fighting a return of lung cancer, as we already know, and also lost a couple of court cases this year. He has to pay damages in a defamation case, which he didn't do, so they are seizing his assets now, in his house. This happened yesterday, so I hoped to find some health news, but as far as I can tell, he seems to have disappeared from the face of the earth: https://theedgemalaysia.com/node/729590 “When they arrived, the main gate appeared to be slightly open. There was no one at the guard station and after ringing the bell to the house several times, there was no answer. “The bailiff called out and there was no reply, and they waited for 15 minutes. After failing to execute the writ, the bailiff suggested the next step is to apply for a forced entry warrant, and they left the premises slightly before 11am,” he said.

I don't care much for the Kennedy's but I hope that this stone triggers an avalanche.
