    Authors Last A Long Time, But....

    I had him on my long list as I was going through the books I remember reading while at school. Most of the authors were already dead, apart from authors like Harper Lee and Barry Hines. Oh well

    The Fringes Of Fame/family Of The Famous

    Damn Gooseberry -- beat me to it! "Fringes of Fame' is all he gets I guess. Was kidnapped at 19, as you old fogies (a-hem) may recall. Article says Frank paid $240K for his release. SC And another one gone from the kidnapped theme team I was trying to put together. Trouble was, I only got so far on it and there were just a few people still alive from high profile kidnapping cases. Sinatra Jr was one of a small handful.

    Hospitalised!

    "....Palin was returning to Alaska “to be with her husband and looks forward to being back on the campaign trail soon”. Either she expects a quick death, or it isn't too serious. OR, and I hadn't thought of this, she cares more about the country than her husband. LOL SC Nah, I'm thinking 'seriously injured' means 'broken leg' at worst. She made an unscheduled appearance at a Trump rally having earlier cancelled her planned appearance because of the accident. He's fine. As for caring about her country, I think it's more likely she cares about her own career (been talked about as *shudder* Trump's prospective Secretary of State) than her country. I mean, what does she care? She essentially lives in Russo-Canada anyway... The initial reports were that he was in intensive care. and he's still in there. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/03/15/todd-palin-has-surgery-still-in-intensive-care-following-snow-machine-accident.html

    Reality TV

    I guess he died either of extreme overeating or malnutrition! My guess is a heart attack or stroke. Those reality shows are terrible. The so-called "expert" advice are doctors who are more interested in being a celebrity than they are of the well being of the people on these shows. Extreme make-over was one of the worst of these shows https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5e_WikGjXk

    Ideas And Possibilities For 2017

    Jerry Stiller is still active, his wife died last year. Doris Roberts I see on television occasionally looks good for someone who is 90

    Nancy Reagan

    She seems to be in fine health recently, and I know she was on the guest list as was George H.W. Bush. I'm sure an official statement will be released soon.

    Death Anniversary Thread

    lol Europe has no death penalty so i doubt worse would have happened to him. Many people felt cheated when he died, as he was on trial at the time. No, it doesn't have a death penalty, but many would have liked him to be sentenced from his crimes. It's like saying Britain has no death penalty, so Fred West committing suicide in his cell while he was waiting to stand trial was ok. yes. Sorry but I respectfully disagree with you on that one.

    Further notes for Sir Creep: relegation is something that proper sports leagues have to create consequences for bad decision-making and awful play. Americans don't really understand the relegation process. I've tried explaining it to a few here (at work) with very little success.
