4 hits in the past week while I was gone? It's done. And thanks, I updated Tewson's birthdate. I can do more updates today (Helen Grayco?), then I'm gone for another week.

Maybelle Blair, female Baseball player memorably portrayed by Madonna in "A League of Their Own" is now 95 years old: https://www.mlb.com/news/maybelle-blair-on-coming-out-at-95-and-a-new-league-of-their-own

Yes, Trump Org's CFO Allan Weisselberg has agreed to a plea deal. He has to testify now later in the year which probably puts him on a hit list.

The record is around 7-8 Lotl-ers. I think Shameless was pretty high up in the list, but got tied or overtaken a few years later.

Sacheen Littlefeather receives a public apology from the Academy and will be a guest of honor at the event; https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/sacheen-littlefeather-oscars-apology-1235198863/ No real health news. Her husband died of cancer last year, just one of many people close to her who recently died.

Yeah, I was a little confused about the whole timeline. Yesterday, Wikipedia still had her declared dead a couple of days ago. "They" have changed it to yesterday since then.

Before he was the CEO, he headed the investment banking branch. He bears a lot of responsibility for the billions of dollars in damages that Deutsche Bank had to pay since the financial crisis.

James May suffers a car crash with at least one broken rib: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11107103/Grand-Tour-star-James-rushed-hospital-crashing-wall-75mph.html

Kay Ivey hasn't been seen in a week, there are rumours of deteriorating health: https://politicalwire.com/2022/08/12/alabama-governor-hasnt-been-seen-in-a-week/#disqus_thread

Looks good suddenly... ahead of the DeathList. Maybe it got too hot for our seniors. By the way, I see the headlines "Last german playboy"...did we ever have any others?

Yes, I also always planned to do this "one day". In the end, the time to do that never came (it's one of the things I hope to be able to do next year instead of playing the Cup). I kind of hoped to get COVID and be mildly incapacitated for two weeks to do that, but then I was actually lying down for a week and couldn't do much. It's something I kind of don't want to use my holidays for. That said, I will be mostly away from home during the next two weeks, not completely as I return home for a day between two trips. But updates will be spotty.

The theory on the internet is that he sold some nuclear knowledge to Saudi Arabia - which might explain the 2 billiion dollars Jared Kushner once received from them.

Ralph Halpern, founder of UK fashion chain Topshop has died at 83: https://www.ft.com/content/4f4d0330-e85c-438a-aa0f-1542dfd08ae2

He's sooo close to the death penalty.

Uhh... wow

John Abdo, fitness coach, nutritional "expert" and frequent guest on TV for all things motivational/fitness/lifestyle, dies at 66: https://thecapitalsportsreport.com/2022/08/10/olympic-athlete-strength-conditioning-coach-john-abdo-has-passed-away/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Abdo He looked pretty fit for his age. Reason of death is cancer, according to facebook.

Okay, when I watch it, there's always a black screen at the beginning, saying "Netflix original show" or something like that.

Carol Burnett can now be watched in the final episodes of Netflix series Better Call Saul. Looks okay, I thought, good for a couple of years at least. But the black/white camera and make up might hide her real look.

Oh, don't make it a task for yourself. I try to do the updates in bunches in the afternoon. And either Wikipedia will tell me something or it won't.

Yeah, thats always a compromise, and at least the date seems to be settled now. Lets see... I wont wait too long.

Updated - without Dozier, because I am waiting on the place of death. But Lamont Dozier would be hit no. 181. That means we need 98 more hits in roughly 142 days to break the record. It's actually looking somewhat possible. Considering we had a very deathless springtime, it's sort of impressive.

I checked. They are in. You will receive ONJ points though, with the next update.

That settles it, next karaoke night I will be singing Magic.

Beloved (?) Welsh conductor and musical educator, Derek Holvey, dead at 84: https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/beloved-music-conductor-educator-mentor-24701572

Good writer, which I say even though I haven't finished his John Adams book in months.
