New picture, just a small hint of thinness: https://www.survivornet.com/articles/jeopardy-host-alex-trebek-poses-smiling-with-daughters-in-heartwarming-girlsdad-post/

For some reason, the Guardian published an interview with John Boorman who is 87 years old now and has age-appropriate illnesses, but nothing too dramatic: https://www.theguardian.com/film/2020/feb/13/john-boorman-you-think-the-holy-grail-is-lost-no-i-have-it-on-my-piano

Well... another Dane picked in the DDP is Lars Hogh.

New interview with VICE: https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/4agnbj/exclusive-harry-reid-says-its-time-to-kill-off-the-iowa-caucus Looks pretty shrunk. STILL receiving chemotherapy, and really liking Bloomberg.

Daily instagram check: Unusual in that it's possibly not Genesis himself writing the post. Some commenters even write "RIP". Jumping the gun? Edit: Now that I think about it, the trance mentioned in the post... .maybe s/he went into a coma?

We have a new world's oldest man, Chitetsu Watanabe: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7995555/Worlds-oldest-man-says-never-getting-angry-keeping-smile-face-secret-long-life.html The Daily Mail manages to circumvent the whole Gustav Gerneth-non obit story by mentioning that the previous record holder, another Japanese man, died just last month.

Oh wow, but then, apparently, so did everyone...

Oh, good find! I have to admit, it looked a little too well for me, but not having found anything else, I believed it. Edit: Pretty telling then that there is no new picture?

Well, last week there were some news on him, though....just repeated in the Falkirk Herald today: https://www.falkirkherald.co.uk/sport/football/hearts/bairns-history-book-will-raise-vital-funds-mnd-scotland-1387624 He does not look as decrepit as Ricksen just yet.

Very german director Joseph Vilsmaier dead at 81: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/joseph-vilsmaier-dead-german-director-stalingrad-was-81-1278934 Best-known outside of Germany maybe for the "Stalingrad" movie. And "The Harmonists" was one of Bill Clinton's favorite movies of that year...

This is getting very, very muddled. Sanders might have wanted to win by more than those not even 2% yesterday. He couldn't pick up any support of Warren or Biden. Maybe he'll get some Yang people now, but considering that New Hampshire was favorable territory for him, he'll have a hard time breaking 30% anywhere. However, as long as the moderates are so divided, that might just be enough... Nevada and South Carolina will be totally different events. The Culinary Union is apparently refusing to back Sanders (Harry Reid's work?) and Amy Klobuchar has no organization there (though I do wonder how important organization actually is). Bloomberg will not be on the ballot until Super Tuesday, so you don't know if all the ads and money actually amount to anything. I think Biden will not win South Carolina (another Sanders/Buttigieg with 25% each situation) neither will Steyer who made a play for it. The latter will drop out, the former might. Warren might also drop out before Super Tuesday, where will her people go to? The pundits and their fever dreams are now talking stuff like...what if Kamala Harris un-suspended her campaign? Such a mess. I don't know, maybe there's just too much noise for a political nerd right now.

Pele is depressed over his failing health and doesn't leave the house anymore: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2020/feb/10/pele-is-depressed-and-has-become-a-recluse-says-his-son-in-interview-brazil-football

A bit cheating, wasn't it? Including 2020 deaths...

Jhon Jairo Velasquez another relatively early hit for me.

Australian news presenter Brian Henderson doesn't want to treat the 5th appearance of cancer: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-7982211/Brian-Henderson-refuses-treatment-diagnosed-cancer-88.html He says it's a slow-growing kidney tumour and quite possibly "something else" is going to get him before...

BBC recently published a video about Tim Bilton's cancer fight: https://www.bbc.com/news/av/uk-england-leeds-51378137/tv-chef-tim-bilton-on-living-with-terminal-cancer

Oh, she's just entering her Richard Overton-phase. Two more years of pneumonia ahead.

QO for the DDP... My first unnatural death to enter: https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/10921164/desperate-housewives-actor-orson-bean-dies-aged-91-after-being-struck-by-a-car/

Well, I had to check now, my main team has more unique picks than yours! I'm not telling everything...

Keir Starmer's mother in law is in critical condition and he has canceled some events: https://home.bt.com/news/uk-news/sir-keir-starmer-cancels-weekend-campaigning-due-to-ill-health-of-mother-in-law-11364430474616

All of them has Beans

Finally some reason for me to post in this thread... Singer Arno (70) has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer: https://www.brusselstimes.com/all-news/art-culture/94126/arno-postpones-tour-dates-after-cancer-diagnosis-pancreas-rock-star-singer/ The Michel Delpech of 2021?

Very interesting. I find it somewhat fitting that he ended up in Russia.

They are sending his personal secretary Georg Gänswein away, after some scandal late last year. Some believe that it's also an indication of Benedikt's "rapidly plummeting health" https://gloria.tv/post/yxV6oiRQZdWL6ZHvipvEEk6JN

Clint Eastwood is a health nut. He eats very consciously. It's in his wikipedia page which, of course, I examined for deadpooling purposes. So, yes, he could still last a while.
