Predictor broke his "every 150th post on the anniversary of his first post" habit.

Surprisingly the issue at stake is not the eventual ownership of the farm - that might explain why it never came to your attention.

Yeah, so I'm 825 miles from home and now Harvey is bearing down the coast and onto my house today. I'm pissed cuz this is Texas' storm, not ours. So my poor little Louisiana home is being deluged with at least 8" of water the next 24 hours and more to come --- and as you may recall south Louisiana and particularly Baton Rouge got crushed by last August's flooding. If that thing parks over Louisiana we are screwed, and I'm not at home to see what's up or save anything. My daughter is off of school at least today, probably most of the week, and with her mom so she's ok. I suspect my home is ok floodwater-wise, but house damage who knows. I have a metal roof so there's that, but an oak tree can take care of that right quick. Damn storm should have stayed in Texas like all our Louisiana hurricanes do, we don't foist our troubles onto neighbouring states. The NERVE ~~ SC

Today at my local supermarket I saw a magazine that said Harper was in her "final days". Valerie could be a possible 11th hit (along with Graham, Michael, Booth and Bracknell).

Liberty Valance, aka Lee Marvin, died on this day 30 years ago, aged 63.

No. Lists come down to opinions in the end. David Bowie is more significant to me than Fidel Castro. I don't think there should be an absolute official list of any kind.

P sure we already have a thread like this. Hold on while I find it. EDIT: Threads merged. Given you knew about this thread already having posted in it previously there was really no reason to make an entire thread out of your own list.

So, some useful insights - he spends most of his time caring for his wife and he was seen shopping in Screwfix (ironic, eh?) We could - like - re-jig the DLCon and arrange a viewing of the house next door to Rolf

Good point. Let's list everyone who is alive.......!

Good grief, have I really? I hope at least some of them have been useful or entertaining.

I assume "tractor-trailer" means something different in the USA.

Congrats to Toast on making 5000 posts.

Wishing you luck SC.

John Huston had a walk with death on this day 30 years ago, aged 81.

This will end well......

Don't fret, I'm sure work will pick up for you soon

The most recent pic of JPDC I could find. Looks healthy considering he was 96 when this was taken.

I had no idea he directed Salem,s Lot. Thats one of the best horrors ever.

Does that mean old people's home?

Last night I dreamt I was on Pointless and Alexander Armstrong decided to come out of the closet and announce he was in a relationship with Richard Herring! What is wrong with me? I finally dream about someone I do find attractive and then I dream that he's gay.

Those Muckers are not English. We would have fixed it by now.

With all due respects to these varied "curses" attaching themselves to bands - aren't we just shipping the same curses time and again on this thread? Guys (and it is mainly guys) who combined unhealthy lifestyles, anti-social hours and heavy habits regarding cocaine and tobacco? If we then allow out the conspicuously rich ones like Keef who could always get the same drugs a chemist would see - we've pretty much nailed why so many heart attacks, tumours and failing internal organs blight the pensionable years of those who spent ages playing provincial halls.

The AIDS thread in the early 80s would have been... interesting.
