The Game Room
783

Zelenko was 48 years old. I’m looking at the picture and thinking I would have guessed about 15 years older.

The extent to which this offers a commentary on his “treatments” is left as an exercise for the reader.

We are halfway through the year, and I have yet to see one dead politician on my list. Hmmph.

788

This calls for drastic action (but, staying within the game rules of course).

789

I thought I would never score any points this year, and was not expecting Sonny to be my first.

790
791

Struck by lightning while on a boat. Yikes.

792

Former NHL defenceman and cheapshot artist Bryan Marchment dies far too young at 53.

793

He’s not dead yet, but things do not look good for Shinzo Abe.

794

According to that link, there’s cell phone footage of the shooting. I haven’t viewed it yet, though.

797

It’s official:

798

I’ve seen some footage(two different phone videos), but neither are particularly clear. But, yes, he was speaking and there was a loud boom and poof of smoke and he fell down.

This was hours ago, though. Not sure if clearer footage has surfaced.

799

Clearer footage has surfaced. Yikes, terrible.

Does the former PM there have secret service like guard?

800

It’s Taps for Corporal Agarn. Larry Storch has died, leaving one point to all who had him. [Salute!](Larry Storch Larry Storch - Google Search)
