Ulitzer95 12,586 Posted July 10 1 hour ago, The Old Crem said: Of the 3 non-affiliates expelled: Lord Conrad Black is 80 next month. Worth keeping an eye on, but I think fairly active elsewhere still? Lord Stanley Kalms is 93 in November. Lord Willoughby de Broke is 86 in September. Of the 3 Labour expelled: Jean Corston is 82. Bryan Davies is 85 in November. John Prescott is 86. Excluding Black who could just never be arsed turning up, expect at least half of these names to be dead by this time next year. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jd24fan 78 Posted July 18 Seems like a busy week and a half for deaths it seems. Shelley Duvall, Dr. Ruth, Richard Simmons, Shannen Doherty, Jacoby Jones, James Sikking, Bob Newhart and now Lou Dobbs. It looks like Lou had a show earlier today, and was sharing the now infamous photo of Trump's injury as well, so his death appears to be sudden. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ran for mayor of Houston but didn’t get through the primary so she kept running for congress. Diagnosed and refused to resign because she’s going to beat it.

arghton 6,715 Posted July 21 Something new on former Afghan prime minister Mohammed Hasan Sharq. According to him, on paper his birthdate is the 17th of July 1924 (not 1925?) but he could be "a year or two older or younger". He is also releasing a new book. There also seems to be a new clip here at 20:02. I think he won't die off-radar. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pancreatic cancer is horrible Any cancer is terrible, but I agree with you and think Pancreatic has to be the worse. I do not know a single person that has beaten it. I cringe every time I hear so and so has Pancreatic cancer. There are notable people that have had it and many claim that they are going to beat it, but very sadly it seems to never happen.
