Sir Creep 7,070 Posted November 26, 2015 The 'politics' portion of this thread is totally ignored what with most entries going into Political Frailty. We shall cure that. Rajya Sabha was on Thursday adjourned for the day as a mark of respect to sitting member MP Khekiho Zhimomi of Nagaland People’s Front, who died here this morning. When the House met on the opening day of the winter session, Chairman Hamid Ansari mentioned the passing away of 69-year old Zhimomi.

I waited all year with that fuck on my waiting list and searched almost daily for news about him, and gave him a final punt from consideration in December. Thanks to Faux French media and his family for putting out info on him. At least I don't have to suffer 2016 thinking about Delpech. SirC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 10,967 Posted January 3, 2016 When his wife said "He survived December" on Dec, 30th, one could know that it was the end. A little french/google translate was necessary though. There was a lot of drama around his case, with people blabbering about his health without permission and so on... The obit ...shouldn't... be a problem, in these quiet early days of the year. He already got prominent ones in Germany. But then we might, culturally, be more francophile than the UK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
