    Can't believe I didn't pick him for anything. I remember, there was some ok-looking picture of him late last year, so he disappeared from my teams. I also assumed that he wouldn't be unique.

    Hospitalised!

    Man has "worst-ever" case of "super gonorrhoea": http://www.bbc.com/news/health-43571120 Unfortunately not named. "One last antibiotic could work". Apart from the snickering, this could be the end of our current antibiotic regimen, because antibiotic immunity is rising.

    Scavenger Hunt Bingo Deadpool II

    Edit: Misunderstanding the winning conditions.... ignore. Edit: Does Toast have three unique hits?

    Scavenger Hunt Bingo Deadpool II

    Looooool... I forgot about John Anderson, so I crossed the "winning" threshold with Hubert Doggard.

    Mini Death Pools

    A tip: Deadpools need rules. Otherwise it's literally just writing down a couple of names that are on your mind.

    Scavenger Hunt Bingo Deadpool II

    Hmm, my Scavenger Team 1.0 had two hits since this one started: Ken Dodd, and Hubert Doggard who was a unique.

    The Deathlist Cup 2018

    Well, in that case, if I was you, I wouldn't even bother to submit a team.

    No, tell me more! Edit: I see you just did!

    Sonia Gandhi

    Typical Spade Cooley trivia: Did you know that one member of the Nehru-Gandhi family was a guitarist and songwriter for "Mmm Bop" Hanson? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ravi_Hutheesing

    Reality TV

    Has it returned??? https://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2018/03/ami-brown-has-her-cancer-returned/ (By the way, this new article only says that her cancer was in remission, not that it had gone away... very sloppy terminology sometimes.)

    Political Frailty

    Agreed, I'll do it tomorrow at home unless anybody else wants to. I'd make a list of all her health crises.

    The Deathlist Cup 2018

    DeKoven is a "special interest" name. I don't expect an obit during the weekend. But surely next week.

    The Fringes Of Fame/family Of The Famous

    I picked Sal Turturici in the Hare's as my Ray Pfeifer of 2018 and he was in my B-Team for a while but wasn't convinced of his QO in the end. But as we can see here, sometimes timing is everything.

    The Deathlist Cup 2018

    Tafoya was a lock for me. The "maybe"s didn't come through. But it looks like I, once again, lose to the best performance of the year.

    9. Linda Nolan

    As long as she manages to make it all about her, she'll be fine. But as soon as she starts to "raise awareness" or fundraises for someone else - as soon as she thinks about what she'll leave behind - the clock starts ticking.

    Ah, thought so... tough, because the search function doesn't include the quotations.

    But a good song, and a great video.

    Now really out of every danger imaginable: http://www.ladbible.com/news/sport-news-boxer-david-whittom-has-passed-away-aged-39-20180317 (I searched, didn't find anything, yet, I suspect it's already been posted here, somewhere....)
