sends apologies for the show i missed in Baarn at amerpoort with united by music. I have pancreatitis. I hope to be better by tomorrow. its been rough this time. love to you all. treasure your health while you have it. It supersedes everything else.

Candye Kane, is sadly suffering from cancer again. Although widely reported to have had pancreatic cancer, she is actually suffering from neuroendocrine tumours, the same condition that afflicted Steve Jobs and DL favourite Paul Hunter. :skull:

"We're today's scrambled creatures, locked in tomorrow's double feature
Heaven's on the pillow, its silence competes with hell
It's a twenty-four hour service, guaranteed to make you tell
And the streets are full of press men
Bent on getting hung and buried
And the legendary curtains are drawn 'round Baby Bankrupt
Who sucks you while you're sleeping
It's the theatre of financiers
Count them, fifty 'round a table
White and dressed to kill."

She posted this on her facebook page just a few hours ago

"Playing at Yolies in Ventura tonight with special guest JASON RICCI!!! We play from 8-10 pm! We will also be at the Calypso Restaurant in Leucadia on Sunday from 7:30-9:30!! Had an amazing time at Merle Haggard show."
So it doesn't seem to have slowed her down much.

George Mcgovern the guy who ran for president against richard nixon in 1972 is 90 in july. Think he would be a good shout for the deathlist in 2013 he will turn 91 half way though 2013 aswell.

George McGovern has been mentioned a few times in the Political Frailty thread.
He was hospitalized twice last year, once for exhaustion and another time for falling and hitting his head prior to a television interview.
He still gets around, but I suspect he'll end up falling, breaking his hip and dying from complications of an operation.

Japanese conductor Seiji Ozawa, who has been suggested on DL several times over the years due to his past diagnosis of esophogael cancer, is to take a year off to concentrate on overcoming his continuing health problems.

To be honest im really interested in politcs especially american politics and i only heard about it him for the first time 2 days ago , He comes across as the ron paul of the 70s .

South Korean cult leader Sun Myung Moon (Reverend Moon) was on the news here last night, doing one of his mass weddings (yes, he is still at it!) He seemed in good health but the report mentioned he is 91 now so probably someone just to keep an eye on at this stage.

I am going to suggest Rodney Bewes.

A few weeks back there was an episode of Masterchef where the contestents made afternoon tea for some veterens of TV comedy. There were a number of people who had featured on this site such as Frank Thornton as well as Nicholas Smith (Mr Rumbold), Lynda Baron, Wendy Craig and Jeffrey Holland but it took me several minutes to recognise Rodney Bewes and even my wife commented that she expected to hear of his death shortly.

Bearing in mind I think the series was filmed at the end of last year I am not even sure if he will make 2013.

I tried to add a photo but I am having to post as a guest as my account has not yet been validated.

I have already made this comment in the Basil Brush thread but thought it was a bit obscure!

Is there a clip of that anywhere?

He certainly hasn't worn well, but was spry enough to jump on an unfortunate female journalist a couple of years back. Bet she was glad she had a photographer with her.

Rodney Bewes - aka Bob Ferris in the BBC sitcom - has launched himself across me with no warning and a loud 'Wha-hey!' .....
.... he's 72 years old, very pink-cheeked from lunch and is now lying heavily on top of me and nuzzling my neck with extremely wet lips.

Just thinking with Sir Peter Blake's new design for Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
I was wondering who was still alive from the original cover.

So far only ones I can think of are
Bobby Breen (b. 1927)
Shirley Temple (b. 1928)
Bob Dylan (b. 1941)
Dion (b. 1939)
Larry Bell (b 1939)
Paul McCartney (b. 1942)
Ringo Starr (b. 1940)

Personally I thought Bobby Breen died years ago.

I was watching Doyle Brunson playing poker and it got me thinking about other poker players who are of an age where they could be on the brink of death. Doing little exercise and eating crappy casino food can't be good for you Some other names I came up with are :-

Amarillo Slim AKA Thomas Austin Preston, Jr., born 1928
Tom McEvoy born 1944
Berry Johnston born 1935
Crandell Addington born 1938
Perry Green born 1936
Dewey Tomko born 1946
T. J. Cloutier born 1939
Lyle Berman born 1941
Jack Binion born 1937
Billy Baxter born 1940
Henry Orenstein born 1925
Dan Harrington born 1945
Mike Sexton born 1947
Brent Musburger born 1939
Dick Van Patten born 1928
