Thats pretty amazing. No hope of it happening with me and OH. My Aunt and Uncle had 70 years together and that was amazing for us. He was 6 months short of 100 when he died. And was still living at home, and had all his marbles.

I won't make the century mark, though I have multiple close relatives who lived well into their nineties. I would imagine that the closer you get to the end, the more you think about it.

Fulton is a difficult one for someone who grew up at Cumberland Oval . God they used to hate him there! But I can admit we was a good player and it is sad he’s gone.

"he eat one pickle"
My daughter had to read part of The Hungry Caterpillar at her school assembly, at the age of five. We videoed her little section and still giggle over her original interpretation. it's a simple but perfect book for early readers. |

Australian Olympic champion Rick
Mitchell, who won silver in the 400-metre at the Moscow Olympics, died on
Sunday night from prostate cancer. Mitchell
was the last Australian male runner to win an individual Olympic medal on the
track. Men have since won Olympic medals in relays, in walks on the road and
jumping medals in the track field, but no male has won an Olympic individual
track medal since Mitchell. |

I remember that clearly. An unexpected result at the time as well - fantastic effort. Up against all the eastern block countries at the time. Not unlike the the result of Peter Norman 12 years earlier at Mexico City in the 200m - another unexpected silver medal. Prostrate Cancer gets another one.

Bit off track, but on news yesterday, I saw these 100 plus years old blokes who landed on the Normandy beaches on D Day, and another fella was lifted off Dunkirk. One chap was upright and walking with no aides and had all his marbles. Thats pretty awesome.

Respect Australian Filmmaker Peter Spann tragically passed away recently.
He was boasting on social media about getting his Covid Shot. He started feeling very ill, went to hospital and died. It has been confirmed he died from the Covid Shot. Media very quiet on this one. RIP Peter. Vaccines are safe and effective in my opinion.

ALL my posts are written as Sci-Fi, no different to an Orson Welles and should not be taken literally. Sci-fi is a genre of Fiction.

At the age of 23 I was diagnosed with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. It’s hereditary. It can’t be cured. And it kills. Mostly fit, young people who have no idea they have it. Without putting a fine point on it whenever you hear of someone dropping face down dead doing something like jogging around a park it’s probably undiagnosed HOCM lurking in the background. When my Cardiologist found out that my birth mother had died of it when she was in her early 20’s he, well, freaked out. His response was “You’ll be dead before you’re 25 so get your life in order and have some fun”. From the man himself. He was then hospitalised 7 times in 2016 including for heart failure. Do you want the media to report 'very sick man dies'?

not so quiet. There are plenty of reports out there... Peter Spann: 54-year-old Australian filmmaker dead two months after first experimental AstraZeneca shotSYDNEY — A 54-year-old Australian filmmaker and businessman is dead despite acknowledging all the dangers surrounding the COVID-19 “vaccines” and having pre-existing conditions. Mr. Peter Spann received his first dose of experimental AstraZeneca viral vector on March 25, according to his Facebook page. He confirmed it was the AstraZeneca shot in subsequent comments. Mr. Spann reported headaches and a fever that got progressively worse for a few days. But he said the symptoms resolved themselves days thereafter. Mr. Spann and a Facebook friend named Brian Gillett had a back and forth discussion about the experimental shots, deaths and adverse reactions. After a long string of comments, Mr. Spann responded with his reasoning for getting the AstraZeneca experimental shot. He acknowledged that the shots were still in clinical trials and that he possibly would suffer adverse reactions. But he said it was the best decision for himself because he would probably die of COVID-19 if he caught it. It is unlikely Mr. Spann received the second dose of AstraZeneca viral vector, as the Australian Department of Health recommends 12 weeks between the two shots. That would have put him on schedule to get the second injection on or around June 25. But he never got the chance. Mr. Spann did not report any further adverse effects related to the shot. He seemed to be operating normally in life, and published his last Facebook post on May 22. Sometime in the days thereafter, Mr. Spann fell gravely ill. He was admitted to an intensive care unit and had unsuccessful surgery. Mr. Spann passed away on May 30. |

InsideEko is yet to confirm Peter Spann’s cause of death as no health issues, accident or other causes of death have been learned to be associated with the passing.
the man, himself stated in a post, after getting the jab: "I am also aware that with my co-morbidities, if I get covid I am highly likely to get very very sick from it and possibly die. But I'm taking the risk." The very same reasons I'm waiting until the Pfizer vaccine is available for my age group (and lower status than the Queensland premier). |
