No-one has played their joker on Stuart Hall which is a pity because the irony itself would have been worth a few extra bonus points

I miss the days when the "dead of 2015"-thread was still used for people who actually died in 2015...

http://www.snopes.com/info/news/jennercrash.asp http://edition.cnn.com/2015/02/06/entertainment/feat-bruce-jenner-transitioning-in-public/index.html Bruce Jenner WTF?

So why did you start by calling him a financier and posting it in a political thread and then call him a politician? Why not call him a politician first and post it in this thread?

The date on that link is two days ago, up to date news would be good you flange-hammock.

I understand this happened when both were young, but I only know (and have therefore only a mental image of) Reagan as prez. That makes the above sentence a rather disturbing idea. regards, Hein

Nunnelee is deceased. If you think I'm going to post when some politician is ILL in one forum and his OBIT in another, well you can surely piss off. Sir Creep gcreptile beat you to it. http://www.deathlist.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=8444&page=8#entry219918

Yes, lets all guess which of the 50 has a birthday during the year. Goodness, for the 28th time in a row, everyone on the list has a birthday. Full marks. What if someone was born on the 29th of February? They may not have a real birthday this year. (Of course, for legal purposes, their birthday would be considered to be 1 March or 28 February, depending on the country they live in, and they could still celebrate their birthdays on either, but it's not the same as a real bd.) Granted, the likelihood of this is quite tiny. We only have 1 such day in every four days (except some "double zero" years), so approximately 1 out of 1461 (365*3 + 366) candidates should be a leapling. The probability of a random list of 50 names containing a leap year baby should be around 1-(1460/1461)^50 or 3.37 per cent, but yeah, most of the time all of them should have a birthday.

No this is important as many people will assume they are still registered as they have been previously. This is going to mostly affect Students and people who live in multi-occupancy units. This was a change brought in by Labour to move to individual rather than household registration but the argument goes that it has suited the Tories not to bring it to the attention of the above groups too blatently as those people probably wouldn't vote Tory. That argument might hold some weight if the letters didn't say on the envelope the way we register vote is changing. Assuming people saw the letters and didn't just chuck them out with all the other junk mail. There was a similar issue about the letters that went out about data sharing in the NHS. The programme had to be postponed because most people weren't aware of the issue. This should have been supported by a media campaign. This is a problem caused (or at least not helped) by the semi-privatisation of Royal Mail. Back in the 'good old days' you could be pretty sure that what the postie left on your doormat was actual post that needed at least some attention; now that the PO has to pay for itself they're obliged to take just about anything. Of course, if it was obvious that the junk mail on your doormat was junk, we'd just throw it away so in order to get us to look at said junk mail in amongst the pizza menus and window cleaners flyers, the canny marketeer dresses it up to look like its important by putting it in an envelope. Consequently, many assume that the anonymous looking envelope addressed 'to the occupier' (as my registration letter was) is another marketing letter from Virgin Media (other just as irritating mass-marketeers are available). That's my theory fwiw.

A bit like this ; http://www.deathlist.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=8177&page=9#entry206741

A Jake the Snake story from ABC, concerning his 'resurrection'. Haven't read it all, Might be informative, might not.

Reject it? I don't even understand it. SC oh I was just throwing in lists. I wasn't paying that much attention to the topic title.

I think that Journalists should be banned from using the word Veteren (except to describe people who fought in a specific conflict) and replace it with Expected to die soon....

Alcock and Brown - Well hung black Porno actors who are also historic aviation fans who die on the job or summat.

Not a conspiracy per say, but this seems like the thread for it. http://www.talkcelti...2&postcount=190 Post and the edit were on 15/4/11, 2 years to the day afore the bombings at the marathon.
