Margaret Whitton, best known as the former-showgirl-owner who wanted to move the team in Major League, has died at age 67.
According to the obit, she actually WAS a baseball fan.
Reported.
Hate to steal a line, but it is too perfect–
Peter Vaugan’s watch has ended at 7 points:
(he played Aemon Targaryen on Game of Thrones)
Brian
Rashaan Salaam, winner of the 1994 Heisman Trophy and former Chicago Bears running back, was found dead outside a Boulder, Colo. park Monday night. He was 42.
Check out the blonde! Oh, the 60’s! And he was in “77 ‘Kookie, Kookie, Lend Me Your Comb’ Sunset Strip”.
Sammy Lee, Olympic Diver and trainer.
Greg Lake of Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. Palmer lost both bandmates this year.
John Glenn has taken his last step
‘Jeopardy!’ contestant Cindy Stowell dies of cancer before show airs.
I believe you confuse your astronauts.
unfortunately (and this sounds bad, but it’s not meant that way) - she does not count for the purpose of the rules since she is not a celebrity. Not to mention that NO ONE but Alex, producers and her friends/family knew about her condition until this story was posted. I would helpfully suggest that this thread is not for general obits.
So lucky.
As DeathMistress I don’t mind. I find it’s a way to keep up with mortality. But your opinion is equally valid.
As a Jeopardy watcher I find this story sad.
Now we have to think of something better than that. What can we say about John Glenn?
He has orbited his last…orbit.
He has…what?
Agreed. My bad.
I find it inspiring. She lived her dream. Her dream was to be on Jeopardy!, not to watch herself on Jeopardy!
John Glenn has boarded the Friendship Infinity.
Three players get points for Glenn.

Talk about 5 points that I did not want…
Wonder how many Gemini astronauts are left? (Scurrys off to do research)
Glenn was a Mercury astronaut. The original Mercury Seven are all gone now, Glenn was the last.
Of the Gemini astronauts these are left
Frank Borman
Jim Lovell
James McDivitt
Thomas Stafford
John Young
Buzz Aldrin
Eugene Cernan
Michael Collins
Richard Gordon
David Scott
I always feel bad for Collins, to get so close but not to land.
