    Dead Pop Stars

    Does the text say what the headline does? The cancer hasn't returned, but it had already spread to the liver when it was there the first time. Secondary liver cancer is not as deadly as primary liver cancer, but then it already WAS stage IV and will likely come back again and again. Now, he may already die from the colitis if his immune system has become too weak, or if, I don't know, the infection nests in surgery wounds or something like that. Edit: Hm, or does "recent tour dates" mean the "comeback" tour? Second edit: It does not make sense to say that he's "recovering from illness" if a cancer comeback is the reason for the tour cancellation. I think it refers to the colitis. Hm, I find it hard to nail down his current situation.

    Only Famous For Being Ill And Dying

    Maybe a bit of a miss for Shameless (Dean Eastmond). But nobody else should feel bad about not picking him.

    Kim Jong-Un

    Hospitalized and now seriously ill: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4843808/Once-powerful-aunt-Kim-Jong-seriously-ill.html I had thought her dead in 2015 before I posted that quoted post up there. Then I forgot about it and thought her dead again, which was also wrong... until now...

    John McCain

    Planning to speak in Italy, John McCain, that is: http://nationalpost.com/pmn/news-pmn/mccain-to-attend-international-forum-in-italy As for myself, I think I'm going to have some crossover between my main team and my theme team, or between my B-team and my theme team, but not between my main team and my B-team. Actually, I had considered it a rule not to crossover, until Jiroemon Kimura entered two very similar teams this year.

    Deathless Days

    Not 30th of August, but 25th! "The day Rich Piana died".... still only 5 notable deaths.

    Deathless Days

    August 25th so far has only 5 names. Could it be a rare day with fewer than 7 notable deaths?

    Businesspeople, Investors, CEO's

    Possibly. Even with using a very obvious search term I just couldn't find the "revealing" article.

    Businesspeople, Investors, CEO's

    My research apparently has upward potential as I didn't know about him. And I haven't yet found the Rayya Elias or Gary DeCarlo of 2018 yet.

    Only Famous For Being Ill And Dying

    If it's any consolation, Eastmond is on my longlist. So he would have received the Google/Twitter treatment in December. But I'm sure he'll write a couple of prominently placed articles until then, anyway.

    The Fringes Of Fame/family Of The Famous

    Nah, I meant the Shameless of 2017. If a person on it would be too notable, it wouldn't really be a theme team.

    The Fringes Of Fame/family Of The Famous

    Interesting... too notable for Shameless? Though it gives me an excuse to promote her to main team, in the unlikely event that she survives the year. Is her father still alive? And is it time for a poll?

    The Generation Game

    I shouldn't have revealed Peter Skellern, but replying to Willz' "Whatever happened to" was irresistible. Then again, most of us would still have known about him, but maybe just a few wouldn't have, so he wouldn't have made the Drop 40. Edit: How is Sacheen Littlefeather doing now?
