    Thanks! I’ll be sure to pass that along to the person I totally stole it from :D. Seriously, though, 99 is a hell of a good run. Between Bob and Betty White, apparently the universe loves TV animal activists.

    The notorious Mohammad Al Fayed, owner of Harrods, has died aged 94.

    His son Dodi was killed alongside Princess Diana in that car crash.

    Believe it or not, Ozzy has passed away in his home at the age of 74. I guess Keith Richards wins.

    You sure you haven't been hoaxed? Google's got nothing.

    It's possible. I just saw this video on Youtube: Ozzy Osbourne - 'King of Rock' has just died at his home at the age of 74

    And by 'saw' I mean I saw the thumbnail and title, I haven't watched it.

    And now I see there's been a specific hoax about Ozzy's death going around. Oops—nevermind!

    The YouTube channel posting Ozzy's death has done that with a dozen more celebrities who still haven't passed away, like Clint Eastwood, Reba MacIntire, Tyler Perry.

    Anything to get internet "karma"...

    Lol now that I've actually watched the video, it's pretty obvious it's a shady channel.

    In 2011 a 27 year old teacher , Ellen Greenberg, was rendered unconscious with a blow to her head, and later died of 20 stab wounds, 10 of which were in the back of her head and neck. Two stab wounds were marked as postmortem. Her death was ruled a suicide.

    I'm heart-broken.

    Dang, the man had a long, successful run for it, though.
