What was the record? Shameless has 5 non-hits at the moment.

The news reel of an important german TV news channel just mentioned "serious health problems". If THEY have something on it, it must be really bad. The "is gravely ill" stage. Edit: the source of it is a new palace health bulletin that says that his kidneys aren't working anymore.

Yo Yo! That was a very pleasant afternoon. We'll meet again.

Prince Buster is a Hit for me in Shaun's Deadpool. I would have put my money on Mighty Sparrow dying first, though.

Hmm, apparently Chester wasn't the last. I have this on Bahe Ketchum, 96. http://www.abc15.com/news/region-northern-az/other/navajo-code-talker-bahe-ketchum-dies-in-flagstaff-at-age-96. Was Bahe the last? I'm not speculating. The mystery intensifies with another Navajo code talker, Kee Etsicitty, dying at 92 on July 21st according to Wikipedia: http://www.kvoa.com/story/29600997/navajo-code-talker-from-new-mexico-dies You know, after a fair number of pints I have been known to speak Navajo Code.

Too bad Caslvaska still died in August, or I could have been Player of the month (with her, Kincaid and most likely Christie).

German Economics nobel laureate Reinhard Selten has died: http://m.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/a-1110506.html I had him in my Theme Team last year, so possibly someone for the list of the lost.

The AIDS thread in the early 80s would have been... interesting.

Indeed!

Only today it occurred to me how gay "Camp Polari" sounds... there actually is a gay club in the closest town of Rovinj. I will let you do the googling. We are driving past Frankfurt now.

His immune system is relatively weak, with all these infections. Maybe HIV? Is he going to have years of hospitalisations like the king of Thailand? I'm thinking he'll either die 2017 or 2018.

Edit: Well that went wrong. My reply is in the quote.

Going to Croatia for a week. By car and van.

Yesterday, when the fatality count was still at 37, I thought about making a poll on how high it will eventually be. But it's already higher than I thought it would be (around 200). Now I guess it's going to be around 500 in the end.
