Bret Hart has beaten cancer: http://www.wrestlingnewssource.com/news/41796/Jim-Ross-Reveals-Bret-Hart-Has-Beaten-Cancer/

An update on shameless DDP pick Jordan Lotter. Actually interesting because of what it says about medical progress. Obit-wise, the "the NHS condemned me to die" story is a guarantee, of course. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-3470099/Magic-bullet-treatment-giving-hope-cancer-patients-like-Jordan-British-doctors-trial-promising-alternative-chemotherapy.html

I defend her a bit, because she has a couple of good songs. This one is probably good by general standards: But some of the crazy ones are also good, mainly because she always had such a killer backing band, like on this one:

5th of March

Congratulations DDT, wherever you are. I wasn't brave enough to put her in my main team, because of obitability. But now she becomes the third hit of my B-Team, which is about to catch up to The Love Boat, especially since Mother Angelica can't be far behind, as I'm saying for the third time now.

Hmm, Twitter has it. But the rumour started some hours ago. So maybe a fake.

For some reason I always confused George Kennedy and George Gaynes. Will probably continue to do so. I also always confused Gary Oldman and Alan Rickman. But now one of them is the dead one and the other one is still alive.

Willie Thorne still bankrupt, still battling prostate cancer, sort of asks for three million pounds: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/cancer-stricken-willie-thorne-recovering-7456686 He'll have a second biopsy soon.

Uuuhhh.. fascinating! I mean, her death is actually mentioned in written form if you click on "show more". Sneaky, sneaky!

Buzz Aldrin still active and looking good: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3468140/Buzz-Aldrin-Getting-Mars-easy-part.html There's going to be a BBC interview with him.

Oh, no Yoko. Ok, brace yourselves... Joining Lennon

Fergus McGovern, founder of Probe Software, dead at 50: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-02-29-probe-software-founder-fergus-mcgovern-passes-away They helped make games like Mortal Kombat, OutRun and FIFA. He sold the company for 40million and then did charity work and the like. Might even get a qualifying obit, as a Brit, and interviewee of the Guardian.

I was surprised by her activity even after her 80th birthday, but age eventually has to catch up with her. That said, I think she has a good constitution and I think she's going to last a while longer. Another likely future Death List canddiate though.

Was she any good at basketball? No, but she ...vlogged... Here is a more esteemed Telegraph obit: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/12174699/Charlotte-Eades-Parents-of-YouTube-vlogger-post-final-message-after-cancer-battle.html Edit: Guardian obit: http://www.theguardian.com/society/2016/feb/26/cancer-vlogger-charlotte-eades-dies-aged-19 And even a qualifying BBC obit: http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/35672481/tributes-to-teen-cancer-vlogger-charlotte-eades Frankly I think this says a lot about modern "journalism" which seems to be increasingly reliant on copy/pasting from social media to fill space. A few years ago this sort of item would only feature in the local newspaper, which is where it belongs. Yes, I agree. I noticed that the Telegraph is turning more and more to clickbait. Professional journalism is indeed trying to approach the function of social media to stay relevant.

Whitey Bulger moved to solitary confinement because he's a w***er: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3464799/My-sex-life-Whitey-Bulger-85-solitary-confinement-month-caught-masturbating-cell-lights-on.html But seriously, he can't be THAT ill if he's still capable of doing that.

I would agree. Bush Sr. hasn't got left much time. The color of his face, circulatory problems... Barbara is a mean old witch (Nixon admired her for her ability to hate.) She'll live a couple of years longer.

My pick Alfred E Mann has died now: http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-alfred-mann-obit-20160226-story.html I can't quite get a handle on the Deathrace, my picks die too late.
