    Political Frailty

    Well, that guy was doing opposition research on the Clintons for decades. A bit late for them to get rid of him now... On the other hand, he gave an interview about his role in the Trump campaign 10 days before his death.

    Lord Lieutenant Peaches Golding OBE has breast cancer: http://www.itv.com/news/westcountry/2017-07-13/all-will-be-well-lord-lieutenant-of-bristol-tells-itv-news-about-her-cancer-diagnosis/ Her second fight with primary cancer. I assume that means the cancer is at an early stage.

    Ah well, BB King died shortly after dehydrating on stage. At 90+, you want to avoid every risk.

    So the Chinese doctors who said that he cannot leave the country anymore were right. Or would it really have changed anything if they had flown him out of the country a week ago?

    Ooh, someone else listened to the collection ETHIOPIQUES? I'd say, the no.1 name is Mahmoud Ahmed. Edit: Winner of the BBC 2007 World Music Award.

    Deathrace 2017

    I think mine will all be gone within 5 years. The only thing that could derail it is Jagraj Singh somehow beating his incurable cancer. Though to be fair, I think in this competition, you SHOULD go for the punts, as you only need 5-6 picks to hit early to win. Anna Holmlund would have been an option here. Kay Hagan was worth it as well.
