COVID is the new lupus?

As of right now, there are five people 4 pts behind GUN. I don't know about final bonuses, except for the one if you guess the number of hits correctly. So virtually, those who guesses 16 are tied with GUN. I can see myself and Clorox right now, but didn't check everyone, nor worked out the tie breakers. And who knows, another death will throw it all in disorder.

The "canon" gets a hit. Yoo Sang-Chul must also be in danger. But David Gulpilil still lives.

A bit shocked. Wasn't he filming relatively recently? Well, pancreatic cancer strikes again. You can never rule it out.

Since I predicted 16 deaths, I have to go with "no more".

Ok, it seems all Tupac Shakur related info goes in here.... ...his stepfather Mutulu Shakur is supposedly dying of cancer but his compassionate release was denied because his death is not that close: https://www.vladtv.com/article/266904/2pacs-stepfather-mutulu-shakur-denied-early-release-from-federal-prison Mutulu is also a musician in his own right and a notorious underground activist.

Update after two more weeks. It's small, but I wanted to get Nobby Stiles and Sean Connery into the scoreboard.

Update (or just repetition?) on his quest for immortality: https://www.thesun.co.uk/tv/13130169/coronation-street-bill-roache-reverse-ageing-process/

Ah thanks.... I think I misinterpreted the google news short headline.

Recently hospitalized for the Corona: https://www.ringsidenews.com/2020/11/06/jake-roberts-recently-hospitalized-for-copd-complications/ Yeah, he has COPD, too. If he survives, they might just put him back on the Deathlist..

Ah, would have been picked by me in a lot more next year.

Isn't a witch a misogynist stereotype?

I miss Nurse Rached. Where has she gone all of a sudden?

Former Prime Minister of the Cook Islands, Jim "Gentleman Jim" Marurai dead at 73: https://www.cookislandsnews.com/internal/national/politics/former-pm-jim-marurai-passes-away-at-age-73/

Rapper and social influencer Brax dead at 21: https://variety.com/2020/music/news/brax-dead-influencer-rapper-1234823912/ "At the time of her ascendance she laid in sacred form."

Had to find an english source, it's not as poignant as the german article, but... .. He has to stay a bit longer in hospital because of apparent drug withdrawal symptoms: https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2020/11/06/soccer/diego-maradona-surgery-2/

He's on the strike-out list. Very surprising that he got accepted. He got a Boston Globe obit, and it doesn't seem like there is a lot more coming.

Honestly, that might not be so bad...it keeps Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren (who wanted to be Labor and Treasury Secretaries) in the Senate.

Guardian interview with Richard O'Brien: https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2020/nov/05/richard-obrien-interview-rocky-horror-trans-crack-stroke-70s 78 years old now, had a stroke, but the article doesn't say when. He says he should be dead after his drug consumption.

Benjamin LaGuer has now died: https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/11/04/metro/benjamin-laguer-convicted-rapist-who-claimed-innocence-decades-has-died/

I think Joe will survive Trump. His physical shape is better. Yes, some may say his mental state is a little dodgy here and there, but physical ailments strike faster than mental ones. Also, who knows what's now in Donald's future. If the Senate stays Republican, Mitch McConnell is simply going to shut the whole thing down, so Biden will focus less on legal fights and more on foreign policy, which might just be less stressful.

His next tweet is even better...
