Phantom 2,533 Posted January 18, 2012 Dunno how this site's much-loved guests and sub-100 post makers are going to cope today with Wikipedia blacking out "Deaths in 2012". Like This? Carlos Pujol, Writer, editor and translator has died aged 75. It's just the English side of Wikipedia that's blacked out for today I check it out a few times a day as it's a lazy way sometimes of seeing who has died rather than having several news sites up Although the people I'm following I tend to have a google alert set up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What is unquestionable is that JoePa is seriously, seriously ill, if he's even still alive. And given the lung cancer + the stress from his firing earlier this year for the child-rape scandal at Penn State, he's a certainty for sometime this year, if not the next few days or hours.
