  1. There are also rumours about a botox injection gone wrong, or that some powerful people in the background (ex-KGB) might try to topple Putin because his economic course has led to disaster.

     

    By the way, I like that in the top 5 "Most read in news" in the Mirror they seem to have a special news category for "boobs" (which, of course, is at the top at the moment).

  2. I like his style...B_6CbVvUYAE6i7K.jpg

    He had the tweet already written and as he collapsed to the ground, his head hit the "send" button.

     

    Obviously a big miss for the list. I wasn't aware that his health was bad enough to lead to such an early death. "Early onset-Alzheimers" can't be that bad alone, or can it? I've never read one of his books, but always wanted to. I've never known where to start...

    Richard Glatzer, who wrote and directed the Oscar winning film Still Alice has died at 63 http://time.com/3741548/still-alice-director-richard-glatzer-dies/

    This one is rather sad. Something else must be at play here cuz less than a year from diagnosis to death from ALS in a 63 year old seems quick. Anyways, RIP.

    I've read that the younger you are at the time of the diagnosis, the better is your prognosis. So Stephen Hawking has a normal life span, Joost van der Westhuizen is hanging on for now, and Richard Glatzer died relatively quickly.

    Paul Gascoigne speaks about his involvement in the Murdoch Press hacking scandal:

     

    http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2015/mar/11/paul-gascoigne-says-mirror-phone-hacking-drove-him-to-severe-paranoia

     

    He says the hacking turned him into an alcoholic and made him consider suicide...

     

     

    So doubtless the same office conversation I'm enjoying is going on elsewhere. Sympathies for Gazza and no love for the press activities but...

     

     

    His journey off the rails was already underway when the phone hacking started, right?

     

    Yes, I think so, too. His story can't be 100% accurate, because he'd have to already be in trouble to create the stories that the newspapers then write about. The papers can't have turned him into an alcoholic if he was sober, because then there would have been nothing to write about. But well, he is suing for compensation.

    A new National Enquirer post about her. Again, can't read it cause I live in Yoorup.

     

    Here's what the article says

     

    TV legend MARY TYLER MOORE spends her sad last days in the grip of dementia, her few lucid moments are spent deciding on her resting place – while being reminded of the tragic deaths of her loved ones!
    “With most of her affairs now in order, Mary is left with making the gut-wrenching and difficult decision of whether to be buried or cremated,” a family insider told The National ENQUIRER.
    But the source also revealed the heartbreak behind that decision, as the beloved star, 78, ponders being buried alongside her kid sister, who died of a drug overdose – or joining her only son and her younger brother in having her ashes scattered.
    Mary is wrestling with these decisions with husband Dr. Robert Levine as she lives out her remaining days at their $10 million estate in Greenwich, Conn.
    The dying star is considering cremation as a tribute to her son, Richie, who died of an accidental self-inflicted gunshot wound in 1980 when he was 24.
    “Mary says how wonderful it would be to be free as a bird, her ashes blowing in the same clear air where Richie’s were scattered” over the Owens River in Mammoth Lakes, Calif., the source revealed.
    Richie passed away just two years after Mary’s sister, Elizabeth Ann, died from a drug overdose. And Mary’s world was rocked again when her brother, John Hackett Moore, who worked as a prop man at MTM Studios, died from kidney cancer in 1991, with his body cremated.
    Meanwhile, Mary’s parents and sister are interred at San Fernando Mission Cemetery in California.
    “Right now, Mary’s leaning toward cremation,” said the friend.
    “The thought of her ashes intermingling with Richie’s lit up Mary’s face, spreading that famous smile from cheek to cheek.”

     

    Again the "sad last days".... last year there was an article about Valerie Harper with the same phrase (I can only see it by Google-newsing "valerie harper sad last days national enquirer"). As long as she can still decide how to die, she can't be at death's door (Wouldn't her guts be burned or buried instead of wrenched?). Also, how can Mary's world be rocked "again" by the death of her brother, when that death occured 24 years ago?

     

    They're not saying that her world was rocked again recently, they're listing the people she lost in a reasonably short space of time. Her sister, son and then her brother in the space of 11 years. She's 78 right now and she was about 54 when her brother died and in her late 30s / early 40s when her sister died. Since she was the older of the 3, she lost her siblings quite early on.

     

    Ah ok, I get it now. That is somewhat more coherent.

    According to this this article about the treasonous letter sent by 47 US Republican senators, Iranian leader Ali Khamenei (75) is ailing. Could be a major miss for the current top 50. Also debatable is he is clergy or political.

    Think he has his own thread. Also think I read somewhere they released pics or a video of him alive and well and receiving dignitaries the very next day. The Castro Mystique Effect I'm calling it.

     

    Indeed, also, the Castro Mystique Effect usually befalls regimes the USA doesn't like (Iran, Cuba, North Korea).

    You got it. You have to start asking now what concrete info is available to support the premise that she is still alive. When did we last see her shipped back and forth to the hospital? One year, about 3 years ago it was every other week. Can't think that since the leg off opperation we have ever had any of these mercy trips.

    It's possible Zsa Zsa is dead as like i said in my previous post i wouldn't put anything past Von Anhalt but i do think she is still being kept alive as in December Francesca just before her own death released a photo of her with Zsa Zsa to radar online and also haven't the courts said the "Prince" and Zsa Zsa can live in there house until she dies. Most crucially the real Owners of the house who inherit it once Zsa Zsa dies pay the "Prince" about £300,000 a year to look after her surely they will get some sort of proof she is still alive as surely they wouldn't pay someone all that money every year unless they knew for certain that she was still with us.

     

    You're right, she must have been alive while her daughter was alive. "Prince" von Anhalt couldn't stop Francesca from seeing her mother. Though now the "prince" can do whatever he wants with her.


  9. I've watched quite a few of them. I think they're funny, but I find it hard to believe there are some people on this planet that are as thick as Homer.

    Homer got progressively dumber with each season, though I have to admit that I stopped watching it around season 12/13. Yes, even though I am/was a Simpsons fan, there are now more episodes I haven't watched than those that I watched. At the beginning, the series had a "humanitarian" spirit which was probably Sam's influence. It got more cynical after he left, and from the little I've seen, the humour got crasser in the later series, similar to South Park or Family Guy.

    I'm pretty sure she died months ago but Von Anhalt was too busy being an asshole to even realize it.

    Nah, she is alive, Von Anhalt would milk her passing to death, probably he'd have a special press conference like he did for her 98th Birthday and he would be all over the TV on talk shows etc.

     

    I don't know about Californian law, but maybe he isn't even in her will? Apparently, she is "living" upstairs and only "Prince" von Anhalt and her nurses visit her. The ground floor of the house is regularly used for TV and movie productions (for example, Behind the Candelabra, the Liberace movie). Without the house, "Prince" von Anhalt has nothing. He'd get kicked out of Hollywood and would be forced to stop pretending to be something more than a german former sauna manager. ZsaZsa's death would make news, yes, but that might be the last time for him making US news.

  11. I'm really disappointed in my results here, they amount to nothing. I treated the Deathrace with the second-highest priority, and put some favorites of a potential DDP team in here. Yet, all those low-hanging fruits like ZsaZsa, Sir Winton or Abdelaziz Bouteflika are still alive or even doing better. But then I didn't want to use the same people in different races.


  12. I'm pretty sure she died months ago but Von Anhalt was too busy being an asshole to even realize it.

    I could imagine that, too.

     

    Or she's a ghoul who feeds on the life energies of the people around her.
