Alright, update time! Let's walk back in time. First up, fashion designer Mary Quant, a hit for a couple for people. Followed by,... no Ben Ferencz, no Al Jaffee... okay, it's Andres Garcia. A Mexican actor from "The Golden Age of Mexican cinema", but in later years better known as an actor in telenovelas. A unique hit for Summer in Transylvania, well done. Next up, deathlist hits Nigel Lawson and Ryuichi Sakamoto. Lots of points for everyone! Joe Moneypenny gets joker points for the Japanese composer. Then Bill Butler, the Oscar-winning cinematographer is a unique hit for Diego. Cpt. Hemlock gets a unique hit with Mark Russell. The American satirist is a typical left-field unique hit for him and the rare New York Times QO (though I see now that he also got Yahoo). Then Death Impends gets the unique hit with one-hit wonder Napoleon XIV. Otis Taylor is a good catch for Wormfarmer. LadyFiona is currently waiting for an obit for Kenneth McAlpine. It should arrive eventually. As I admire Gooseberry's 7 hits so far, the with the most hits is Funeralopolis with 9 of them. Unfortunately though there's also a Kate Keltie joker. Maybe an angry donor to her gofundme can make things right? Scoreboard is here: Rank Team Score 1 Banana 538 2 Perhaps 515 3 Funeralopolis 435 4 Salmon Mousse 403 5 JoeyRuss 373 6 Cpt.

He wasnt a DDP hit, so he slipped through the cracks. Score is updated.

Update will come this weekend....I've been a little occupied with a thousand things lately and this might last until June or so.

The US secret service leaks say that Putin undergoes chemotherapy: https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/22012696/cancer-putin-chemo-plots-against-leaked-pentagon-docs/ I kind of do wonder though if those leaks are intentional, or even misleading on purpose.

I dreamt that I picked myself in the DeathList Cup. But I realized I was a bad pick and probably wouldn't be able to defeat Spade because of that.

Stacy Layne Matthews in hospital: They've been having problems for quite some time. Mentally and physically.

Obama's former speech writer calls for Feinstein to resign immediately. I assume there will be more calls very soon. https://thehill.com/homenews/media/3944947-crooked-media-co-founder-says-feinstein-should-resign/

Dianne Feinstein has missed 58 votes in the past month. She's been absent and there's no announced return date: https://twitter.com/ohJuliatweets/status/1645549298820562944?s=20

Joe Biden arrives in Ireland today, so I would assume that Jimmy is (presumed to be) safe at least for the next days: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/live/2023/apr/11/joe-biden-northern-ireland-ireland-rishi-sunak-conservatives-uk-politics-latest

I wonder if that's the "Michael Jackson syndrome". After all, the Dalai Lama was also a child star. He grew up only knowing how to utter feelgood slogans.

Updates have to wait for 2 more days, but thanks nonetheless.

Digitally receiving the Pahl Peace Prize:

Australian animator Bruce Petty, also an Oscar winner for animated short film, has died at 93: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-04-06/cartoonist-bruce-petty-dead-aged-93/102198758

Agreed. And at a certain stage of Alzheimer's it's no difference entering hospice care officially or not.

Next round of points for Sudhir Naik: https://sportstar.thehindu.com/cricket/sudhir-naik-passes-away-mumbai-ranji-trophy-winning-captain-india-wankhede-curator-2011-world-cup-win/article66703468.ece

Klaus Teuber, inventor of the Settlers of Catan boardgame, has died at 70. Sad! https://www.spiegel.de/panorama/gesellschaft/siedler-von-catan-erfinder-klaus-teuber-ist-tot-a-1c044ebb-3fa1-47d7-997c-1bee6d692fc4

Et tu, Tu?

Next one, San Francisco drag queen Heklina dead in London: https://48hills.org/2023/04/sf-drag-legend-heklina-reportedly-has-passed-away/ In better news though, Jinkx Monsoon will be joining the Doctor Who cast in a major role. Maybe this will finally get me to watch it.

I'll vote for Jimmy Carter until I die.

I didn't know that Nigella's dad was famous on his own.

I did it... for the first time in my life I am using a trading account. I put 100 Euros in there and bought 10 Dogecoin and Deutsche Bank stock. Luckily, a few hours after I bought them, Elon Musk changed the Twitter logo to the Doge. Meaning my 70 cent investment increased in value by 20% within hours, from 7 cents to 9 cents. I'm rich.

Kwame Brathwaite, photographer who popularized the slogan "black is beautiful" has died at 85: https://www.artnews.com/art-news/news/kwame-brathwaite-photographer-black-is-beautiful-dead-1234663001/

Behind this paywall it's apparently saying that Butch Pedersen has passed away, joker for 4 people: https://www.kwwl.com/news/legendary-west-branch-football-coach-butch-pedersen-passes-away/article_4a434206-d21d-11ed-80ec-63423bd03de4.html
