drol 11,927 Posted November 18, 2018 Le Duc Anh's son has posted an old photo of his father on a military plane and the post content is "Good flight". That either means the old general is taking flying lessons or the end is very near, you be the judge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,438 Posted November 21, 2018 Update on the above: Harry Leslie Smith appears to have had a fall and has pneumonia for the 2nd time this year. Well enough for a cup of tea, but still in the emergency ward, on Nil by mouth, and has refused intubation. imo this is likely to be (or near enough) Harry's Last Stand... 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulitzer95 12,583 Posted November 21, 2018 Not a fan at all. Abusive and too personal on Twitter, though it’s rumoured that his Twitter account is in fact run completely by his son. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted November 22, 2018 Former Congressman Mac Collins, a truck driver-turned-lawmaker who helped build Georgia’s Republican Party, died Tuesday, according to several GOP officials. He was 74. Collins was a plain-speaking country boy famous for colorful anecdotes who represented a Macon-based U.S. House district from 1992 until 2004. He stepped down to run for Zell Miller’s old U.S. Senate seat, a contest he lost in the GOP primary to Johnny Isakson, his stylistic opposite. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drol 11,927 Posted November 23, 2018 According to his Twitter account Harry Leslie Smith is stable, awake and alert (as son is reading him some books). I guess he will either recover or it will be a long long long hospital stay à la Li Rui. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
