HOLIDAY 🕱MORTALITY & MORBIDITY REPORT🕱: B.H.P.D Entrapment Victim George Michael Dead At 53

Mr. Michael is "said to have 'passed away peacefully at home'" in Blighty, per the Beeb. See here &/or here for the smutty stuff.

Also recently dead (probably wouldn't have known had we not clicked the Michael item) Status Quo guitarist Rick Parfitt, at 68. We can assure you this was some hot shit in 1968.
They gave up on the psychedelic Bromo-Seltzer, went back to the boogie, & never charted again in the States.

On hold in Britain: Elizabeth II, Dei Gratia Britanniarum Regnorumque Suorum Ceterorum Regina, Consortionis Populorum Princeps, Fidei Defensor, 90, too illin' w/ a "cold" to make Xmas services. Not really defending the faith there, Queenie!

Holding in these United Snakes: Carrie Fisher, some kinda princess/royalty.

Anticipating (Eagerly?): Holiday & post-holiday increase in mortality.

We sincerely hope your 🎅Christmas🎅 has been as much fun as ours, & we'll see you all in hell💩2017💩! (Or not. There are no guarantees, are there?)
