See, this is why I say spelling counts. I have both of these listed seperately, while assuming both of them were the more recent Ananda.
It’s “Ryne.” At least I assume you mean the former Cubs infielder, Ryne Sandberg.
I was just getting ready to type another spelling issue. This is one that surprised me. I’d never seen his name printed and assumed it was the more conventional spelling.

I seriously thought Tweeting Baboon was some kind of internet star I’d never heard of.
I wish no tweeting baboon dies.
Reprising my list of entertainers over 90 years old, for the eighth time. I helped keep all but one of last year’s aged picks alive for another full year. In 2023, Bob Newhart gave me six points, but I’m hoping for a low score again this year to avoid losing any more of these great talents.
As always, I’m playing the odds, not going for points. The maximum I could earn, if all of these wonderful actors dropped dead in early January, is 39. Eva Marie Saint is already 100, and the next two will turn 100 this year, Og willing.
They’re listed in descending age.
Eva Marie Saint
June Lockhart
Dick van Dyke
David Attenborough
Mel Brooks
William Daniels
Rosemary Harris
Lee Grant
Estelle Parsons
James Ivory
Joan Plowright
Tippi Hedren
Gene Hackman

Joanne Woodward
Clint Eastwood
I can think of one I want gone.
The name came from Glory by NoViolet Bulawayo. Good book.
2025 list, may I not peak too early this year again. For some I will be sorry, for some not at all:
Ramsan Akhmadovich Kadirov – nasty Chechen piece of sadistic shit
Julio Iglesias – former Real Madrid goalie substitute and crooner
Josef Fritzl – Incestous demented rapist
José Mujica – former bank robber and President of Uruguay, among many other remarcable feats. Great man.
Randy Moss – Bandwagon driver the first.
Sir Chris Hoy – olympic cycling champion
Roger O’Donnell – The Cure keyboarder
Sophie Kinsella – ‘Shopaholic’ Author
Harvey Weinstein – Rapist, abuser, jailbird.
Bruce Willis – Twelve Monkeys is no Christmas movie!
James Van Der Beek – Dawson’s Creek actor.
Angus Young – On a highway to hell since 1975, his brother Malcolm and Bon Scott are waiting for him.
Andy Taylor – Bandwagon rider the second.
Alternatives:
Günther Jauch – Longest serving presenter of „Who Wants To Be A Millionaire“ worldwide - or so he claims.
Bryan Johnson – Wants to live forever. I am against that.
Charles de Ganahl Koch – Too rich for the sake of the world.
