He probably thinks Sharknado was a documentary.

Campaigns have a way of tiring you out. And I wonder if George Bush Jr's cognitive decline can be explained by several years of sleep deprivation. The way things are going recently, it looks like there'll be President Warren soon.

Lol, neat. Thanks for the stellar work, DI.

Yes, I approve! Sadly, I know more stories about him than I've watched his movies. I've liked his penguin documentary though, and his part in a Rick and Morty episode.

Oh, I remember that Simpsons scene! Sounds like a "Gary De Carlo" type to me.

He was the friendly, social face of their operation. Charles was/is the bigger ideologue though. Well, interestingly their influence in politics has declined anyway. They used Obama as a boogeyman and Trump doesn't care about their free market ideology.

Pat Smullen suffers a health setback, which is something you definitely don't want to have in combination with pancreatic cancer: https://www.racingtv.com/news/pat-smullen-to-have-more-chemotherapy-and-will-miss-charity-race

What is it with some people... I mean, wasn't that marriage enough for Larry? What does he expect at 80+? Some people fear of missing out and have a mid-life crisis, does he have an end-life crisis?

The update might have to wait for another week, sorry!

The CURSE of Home and Away continues.

To my knowledge, Kevin Roster did not receive a QO for this pool.

Congratulations DeadCow, bulls' eye, so to say.

QO for Princess Christina, ending a 12-day long dry spell: https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/princess-christina-netherlands-who-lived-18947522 Thanks and congratulations, Predictor.

Hmm, my whole Top Ten of the 1940s would be filled with the Ink Spots. Mostly because they're the only thing I know.

Qin Hanzhang has died...awwww...

As we are closing in on a new death gap record in the DDP, August the 13th currently only has 5 notable deaths according to Wikipedia. That would be a "negative" record for a single day, at least in this era that counted Lisa Magill as a "notable death".

Very publicised case, if I recall correctly. Lots of German obits, too. But so far, just an Evening Stanard obit in the UK.

I think Epstein is in fact dead. He's nothing without his obsessive lifestyle and his possessions which he would no longer have access to. But I think.. someone made it easy for him. He might have been given a hint of what to do. As for who... I'd say the Clinton's are least likely because they have the least power of all parties, i.e. British royals, Trump administration, or maybe even a network of people who liked to attend these parties. There must be some kind of Eyes Wide Shut-like pedophiliac society if the rich and possibly famous.

Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth, to the surprise of noone: https://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-49311736

Jeffrey Epstein's death is one for the ages. I'm not sure though that this one should be counted in our general reaper score report. We have had 7 days without a DDP hit though. If Toni Morrison had been picked, it would have been 5 days. The negative record here is 11 days (in the "modern" era).

Have to upvote that because that's the message you get when you kill a plot relevant character in The Elder Scrolls III - Morrowind.

Yeah, obits in that pool seem to come without problem. See my own hit of the Japanese punk guy...name already forgotten.
