Another Two-Death Day

For the second time this year we have two deaths in the Circling Buzzards on the same day. Earlier in the day famed footballer Bobby Robson died. Now comes news of the death of former Phillipine President Corazon Aquino. She was the first female president of the island nation and although her reign was not very successful, it ended the tyranny of Ferdinand Marcos. Aquino had been battling cancer for some time. She was 76 years old.

Her death is the second for Jacob this year and now puts him in second place with 32 points.

Sorry Dave.

Dave Scores a Goal

Well known footballer and coach Bobby Robson died today. He had a 20-year playing career as well as success as a manager. A year he ago he was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. Sir Robson was 76 years old.

The death is the first for Dave in 2009 and actually vaults him into second place overall.

A request has been made for another Farrah photo but I think I'll put one up of our Grim Reaper friend Rene!!!






















(okay, not really Rene)

Jacob on the Board

Legendary news anchor Walter Cronkite has died at the age of 92. Cronkite was a pioneer in broadcast news covering such events as the assassinations of JFK and MLK as well as the Vietnam War, the Iran Hostage Crisis and numerous Presidential Elections.

His death gives Jacob a whopping 8 points for his first death of the year. And if he can find a way to pull an 'Izzy' he may have a chance at claiming some cash by the years end.

Oh, and what the hell, here's one more picture of Farrah (would you rather see Walter?)
