DC, First, may you and your family find peace and fond memories at this time. Condolences and R.I.P. to dad. Second, I believe us in exactly the same boat; I was 2 months into my college career when my father died (Oct 1981), and I was 18. I hope you can get through the coming days in whatever you are up to. For me, going to class was not only an outlet but 'what dad would have wanted me to do'.... I'm sure you have something similar as a distraction and a way to honour your relationship. SC

Now this, is gonna be hoooooge for phones. And tablets/laptops. I love my 6,200mah phone and its quick cherge which means I never worry about how much is left. But I knew this was in the wings which is a game changer to a degree, Samsung are ready to launch their phones at some point next year with graphene batteries. Their 'life' will be longer afore needing to be replaced, overheating issues will be nullified, and a full recherge will take 12 minutes is the claim. * yer average Samsung battery for a phone is sub 3,000mah, so for a 6,200 that is still 30 minutes or so (in my empty head).

I always struggled with Quantum Leap as I felt that it was Science Fiction for people who didn't like Science Fiction and also die hard QL fans are very strange people.

OK. Fair enough. I just don't really rate these 'wrestlers' as sportsmen.

So I'm a little confused at this point. If there is no death then all the lists roll over unaltered to next month. Okay and MH and TUM? Do they get eliminated for a whole month passing without them entering a team or does their non submission roll over to next month? And presumably we all need to submit a team for next month anyhow just in case someone should die in last day of this month but that team will not come into play whatsoever if no-one dies or will it then automatically be the team that comes into play following the month in which someone dies from all the original October teams? And the rules about people you can pick for the next month - if the October team is simply rolling over what happens to the ineligible picks - do September picks simply stay on the 'you can only pick 5 of them' status until there is a death from the October lists?

Are we still talking about the Holocaust denier?

Methinks you confused: 1) 'Bully pulpit' for 'winning'. 2) 'Some adult living in his mum's basement banging on his laptop' for 'bully pulpit'.

Something Bob Barker will never see....

They fucking play like they all are.....

So 2 out of the 4 Benetton siblings die since July? . Luciano + Giuliana straight onto next years lists.

OK. Fair enough. I don't really rate those "Fort William FC players" as sportsmen either.

Aye but Paul, you cannot take on the Wresting fans, even as an Admin. They're a "community" ffs. The "W" in LGBTPXBFPTW if they get their way. (All of the cunts loved Victor Mature and sword/sandal epics, yet don't admit their sexuality).

No its not. Continue to attract from abroad? Fuck that. It continues the population growth, which results in more folk getting old and......needing doctors. * during my last blast with the fuckers over a cancer diagnosis, everything was "fine" until the specialist fucked off home for a 6 month jolly due to the wedge he was getting paid therefore he didn't need the work. Then 3 other foreign specialists one after the other, all with differing ideas and then it went to shit. Destroy the NHS now and rebuild it fit for purpose, surgeons/office staff/gp's etc all sacked for negligence so no pay out/pension fucked, and hire on at 60% of current wage. And only hire back 15/20% of the Office Staff. Them cuntesses create problems ffs that then need "solved". They want to move to Canada/Oz? Go cuntos, but leave your passport, you ain't ever getting back in. We need another Spanish Flu, but Brexit will help re the population problem. Right that's that solved. NEXT//// The Benefits system......

So, so painfully right. Every last bit of that.

They come across as tactless then, and she comes across as over-precious. Nobody looks good.

Dr Who now Necro'ing 13 year old threads? Can't argue with the time travel aspect I suppose.

Don't bother. Instead, go and find the episode of Quantum Leap, on the same subject matter, that Dr Who has absolutely ripped off. It was much much better.

Reminds me of the graffiti back in the day.

Wow, theoldlady, I didn't realise you were that old.

A woman???

RIP to your Dad, my Dad had a stroke at 52 in January 2007, we were lucky that he survived though he has never really recovered and has the early stages of frontal tempal dementia due to the stroke so your Dad’s stroke hit it home how different it could of turned out for us. Look after your selves and try to remember the good times RIP.

RIP to your father! I know how you feel now. My father died when I was 11 years old.

R.I.P; William M. November 28, 1963 - October 21, 2018 Thank you guys for all of your kind thoughts and comments. It honestly helped me through his final hours and now that he is dead.
