It looks like I found the problem: BBCode parsing wasn't enabled. A quick look shows pictures etcetera now. My apologies for the inconvenience. regards, Hein

Time will tell if that was a logical choice.

I made my decision and voted for Spock.

I think you want us all to slap you up side your head and congratulate you. Sometimes people get lucky. Imagine if you will if we'd had the internet back in 1960 when Margaret Sullavan died on the 1st of January after swallowing a few too many pills. Why if deathlist had selected her, they'd have been off to a darned good start. So, congratulations and may you have a few more successes as the year rolls on.

There's something wrong with our freshly made subforum "2015 Names". Stuff like links and images are not displayed correctly, bur rather raw BBCode is displayed. The problem with topic display in the same subforum may or may not be connected to this. I am working to find out what the cause of this is and how to solve it. This may involve some experimentation and possibly I'll have to close posting to the subforum temporarily. I'll keep you updated on progress. regards, Hein

My first impression was that I was not impressed. Too many exceptionally elderly folks on it to make it feel good. Then I reconsidered and realized that if they made it past 90 they were indeed able to outwit death somehow so there would be something of a cat and mouse chase going on which would prove to be exciting. So, in second impression I kind of liked the list although as always there are at least 33% that I haven't an inkling as to who they are. That too can be good since it causes me to research them and learn about otherwise unknowns (at least unknowns to myself).

Please elaborate! My lovely and dearly departed mother forced me to attend one of Billy Graham's Holy Crusades. I was in my early teens with no previous exposure to evangelical christianity. It was a mass of people shouting and crying and some did in fact rithe on the floor "slain in the spirit."

I watched it. Good game. Did you go? Nah a massive hangover and BT Sport stopped me from going

Can you reduce your sig to one line please instead of the 50 lines?

And that's so wrong to run with a 51 line signature. Please condense it to just a few lines.

It looks like the first death of 2015 is Omer Karami, former Lebanese Prime Minister..... and I had him on my list! http://www.dailystar.com.lb/News/Lebanon-News/2015/Jan-01/282778-former-prime-minister-omar-karami-dies-at-age-of-80.ashx

This poll is superb! Kraut... eh...Kohl for me, too!

It would cool to meet Leonard Nimoy or Doris Day. I was forced to go see Billy Graham once in 1981. I found the experience unnerving and not one that needed a repeat.

I would have to say Jake the snake too.

Just realised I finished 13th looks like LFN listened. My 2015 team. 1) sam simon 2) billy graham - evangelist 3) Bobby the brain Heenan 4) dr kate granger 5) misao okawa 6) Joost van der westhuizen 7) caroline aherne 8) martin crowe 9) bhumibol adulyadej 10) helen fawkes

Bye.

Good stuff. Well done.

They always say the grass is greener on the other side I wonder if bill Maynard will find out this year.

Good to see Bill Maynard in the Clive Dunn spot, will be giving that a Selwyn Froggitt thumbs-up if he passes by December 31st.

What a comforting fact that is to know.

Another one for the_engineer A priest, a doctor, and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers. The engineer fumed, "What's with those guys? We must have been waiting for fifteen minutes!" The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never seen such inept golf!" The priest said, "Here comes the greens-keeper. Let's have a word with him." He said, "Hello George, What's wrong with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?" The greens-keeper replied, "Oh, yes. That's a group of blind firemen. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime." The group fell silent for a moment. The priest said, "That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight." The doctor said, "Good idea. I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist colleague and see if there's anything she can do for them." The engineer said, "Why can't they play at night?"

I'll spell it right C-U-N-T

Looking fine to me.....
