"I sure hope nothing happens to Elizabeth!" Peter Falk

Aye, but it's a marathon, not a sprint. Did you borrow re-assurer from from your wife's pre-coitus spiel? Never knew such a thing existed, what does your other half say about it? My left hand wasn't gifted with a mouth. Aye, well, we're supposed to be comparing performane notes on a dead pool on this thread, So, get a grip, eh? I admire your restraint, Mary,

Not 'exactly' a joke, but it made me smile

Ask any Brazilian and they'll say that 6-0 defeat was far from meaningless as it meant Argentina reached the final on goal difference at their expense...

Meanwhile over on the Lynard Skynard thread. http://www.deathlist.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=7578#entry224025Where you find details of band members who didn't die in crashes. Which means what you should actually say is, oh look somebody died of something which caused their death. Oh look somebody died of something which caused their death Happy now? Overjoyed I'm still trying to find out what 2nd grader called it a 'crash accident', a term they picked up at the Department of Redundancy Department. SC

Again, Sir Creep is not learned on the media of the UK, but goddamit if Pat Summit wouldn't obit no sense in publishing the damned paper. Granted we had this tiff re: Tarkanian a couple months ago and Sir Creep was right, which seemed obvious to him. But she's the greatest NCAA female bb coach ever, what could possibly be the debate?SC The question is whether anyone in Europe really cares that much about college-level female basketball. Yes, NBA is a thing in Europe and you get to watch it live in almost any country, but even WNBA or male college basketball is less interesting for European viewers. So if the matches get basically 0 coverage how would you learn that she was a legend? It's a bit like cricket in the US and continental Europe. Most people there have probably never heard of Sachin Tendulkar, yet he is the single most popular player and #1 sports legend in India. But you can't really appreciate his achievements as an American. You lack the "reference frame" to interpret feats like "the highest number of centuries" when you don't even know how they score in cricket and how many runs are scored by ordinary players.

That leaves two human beings left born in the 1800s SC 3 Jerelean Talley 23/5/1899 Susannah Mushatt-Jones 6/7/1899 Emma Morano-Martinuzzi 29/11/1899

I believe the jury has reached a verdict. SC

The curse strikes again! Jerelean Talley should stay well away from the press! EDIT:New Worlds oldest person Jerelean Talley: 116 next month. http://s.alriyadh.com/2013/05/28/img/865552988204.jpg

Pressure of the title seemed too much for Gertrude Weaver, not even the world's oldest person for a week and she's already dead.

Former Raith Rovers chairman Turnbull Hutton has died http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32195362 Great man, refused to let him team, which is not a big team, be bullied RIP Mr Hutton

Nor did my sister, she had him in the sweepstake!

Forget Hansard, he reads, as a rule that's a sign of intelligent life!

Well is it funny that I would like a skinny Costa Rican?I heard the same joke with coffee and a blowjob, with the punch line "Don't forget the coffee". To use a seldom-heard phrase: The shit one's better. Just a matter of taste I suppose. I happen to like coffee more than shit. There's not so much comedy in coffee though. Well is it funny I now rather fancy a skinny Costa Rican? I don't know. You got a picture? http://pix.avaxnews.com/avaxnews/23/e3/0001e323.jpeg Need I say more?

I know it's not new news, but I personally am really glad we'll never have to hear Jeremy Clarkson squawking "INTO GAMBOOOOOOOOOOOOON" again, in that really fucking annoying way. Erm....... unless he suddenly decides gay sex with old actors is a good way to spice up his late 50s of course...

Are we really gonna classify someone who reads Hansard for enjoyment as "alive"? *shakes head*

Get Some In also had Robert Lyndsay in it, which I think predated Citizen Smith by a few years. I actually remember watching the very first episode of Get Some In, like it was yesterday or summat. 'My Name is Marsh, Corporal Marsh!! B A S T A R D Marsh!! They were the days.

"Due to age" is an incredibly poor reason to consider someone. SC I can't agree Mr. Creepy. Age is certainly a factor (although not the only one) in this kind of stuff. All other things being equal, isn't a 95 year old candidate better than one that's in his 40's? Once a celebrity reaches the 90's they become distinct possibilities even without knowing any other factors. Just check with the life insurance companies.

An elderly Japanese lady and John Lennon's wife die on the same day. I think there might be a Venn diagram in there somewhere.
