Sigh. This has indeed been moved to this Thursday. His partner sent a pic of them today and the difference in a couple of weeks is unbelievable, he's still smiling though and looking forward to the wedding. I guess it's probably the last thing he has to look forward to.Originally posted by gorrrr72 View PostComment

Isn't it just a function of the huge growth in the number of celebrities, TV stars etc. that happened since the 60's. There are just so many people who filled out their 15 minutes and are dying off at a normal rate.Originally posted by NewApproach View PostTurning millions into thousandsComment

Woke up at 5:00 this morning feeling like you do when you're exhausted and have only gotten about 3 hours sleep
Looked at my phone, it was actually 13:30 odd
Breakfast and some podcasts
Fell asleep on the couch
Ready meal that was in fridge for such days
Fell asleep on the couch
Woke up, considered playing poker for first time in about 18 months (Blame Dice/DP whomever had a win recently), around 19:30 look for game options on PP excluding rebuys, none to speak of...
Fall asleep on bed
Just woke up feeling the way your supposed to feel when you wake up at 5:00 in morning after a good sleep

TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP
‘It’s happening’: Maddow previews ‘explosive’ Newsweek story that hints at Turkey’s blackmail of Trump
TOM BOGGIONI 12 DEC 2016 AT 21:49
In a preview of a Newsweek article due to be released Tuesday morning, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow explained that writer Kurt Eichenwald has uncovered evidence that President-elect Donald Trump may have already been compromised by a foreign leader holding the power to threaten his overseas holdings to gain a political advantage.
According to Maddow, Trump has a business relationship with the Doğan family, owners of Doğan Holding, which is building twin towers in Turkey bearing the Trump name for which the Trump family stands to make millions of dollars.
“The day after our presidential election in this country, one of the world leaders who called up Trump tower and spoke with the president-elect was the president of Turkey,” Maddow explained. “And one of the perk up your ears strange things reported about that call is that while Donald Trump was on the phone taking that congratulatory phone call from the president of Turkey, in that same call, Mr. Trump brought up to the president of Turkey by name that executive from the Doğan company, the guy who was the key guy on Trump’s big twin towers in Istanbul.”
Noting that Trump praised the man to Turkish President Erdoğan, Maddow continued.
“Now Newsweek reports that Turkey has figured out how to turn that to their advantage and how to put the president of the United States over a barrel in the process,” Maddow explained. “On December 1st, the top representative of the Doğan company, in Turkey’s capital city, got arrested by the Turkish police. Again, Trump as president-elect had taken an official call from the Turkish president and used that occasion to tell the Turkish president how much this one particular company meant to him, going so far as to name specific executives.”
According to Maddow, President Erdoğan had the founder of the Doğan Holding, as well as an executive arrested on “threadbare” charges that both were involved in an attempted military coup that happened in turkey this past summer.
Maddow then got to the heart of the matter.
“Turkey desperately wants the U.S. government to extradite an imam [Turkish cleric Fethullah Gulen],” Maddow explained. “They [the U.S.] have said that they are not extraditing him. But if that’s what you wanted, what if you could squeeze the personal financial interests of the American president as a way to get what you want from the American government?People say I should be more humble I hope they understand, they don't listen when you mumble
