Sir Creep

First thread I saw at the top of the new posts this morning was for Dan Aykroyd. Whats up there, I thought? Oh, indigestion, I guess. I should learn by now new threads no longer immediately equal dire health. Well, one of the 3-4 asshats we now have, RobertMugabe, came through as expected. Looking forward to the Brad Pitt thread when TMZ reports he was seen buying cough syrup.SC

Ali was an outlier on my mathematical analysis, that's the only explanation. So I'm torn between who I think is right (Pirsig) and who makes sense; I chose sensibly: Reverand Billy Graham. SirC

Or you could answer the fucking question with some names of people who under 18 were famous and worthy of a spot on DP teams? I can only think of ONE in the past twenty years and she IS on my shadow list this year (now that she is 18) and who won a Nobel Prize at 17 and that's Malala Yousafzai, and only then cuz I assume the target on her back is huge, almost as huge as the ISIS bragging rights of killing her. The odds of another 16-17 year old combining fame and reason to be on a DP team is so extremely rare as not to change rules to accommodate the once a decade folk. SC

Deathray told us.https://forums.deathlist.net/topic/7758-things-to-do-while-waiting-for-death/page-30#entry267720 Sorry. I'm still working out what forum is best for new topics I start. So far I think I'm 0 for 2. How about actually researching what threads exist before launching new (and unnecessary) ones? Why do you feel compelled to start new fahkin threads as you aver? SC

Oh we have thread-hungry folks that have infested DL16 so they can pick up from here with an Aykroyd thread. Dan Aykroyd called 911 and rushed to hospital with stomach pains. Ain't that a gas?! Prolly nuthin but I'm begging someone to win Biggest A-hole of DL Forums 2016 and start the Aykroyd thread.

David Gilkey (50) of National Public Radio (NPR) and Zabihullah Tamanna (38) were travelling with the Afghan army when they came under fire and their vehicle was hit by a shell. The attack also killed the driver of the vehicle, an Afghan soldier. Two other NPR employees travelling with the pair were unharmed, the US public radio network said in a statement.

Newsbeat? What is that a teen section? Fucking BBC 'Newsbeat'? The fact Fekete (via phony ass Newsbeat) gets an obit means we shouldn't be reluctant to include anyone. Anything I said about Magnificent magician for Michael Jackson I take back, it was a good try. SC

It's just got worse, Paul Shoesmith has died: http://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/popular-rider-loses-life/ is this event cursed? This forum and my DPs are cursed every time I see a new post herein and Tony Adamowitz isn't the topic. DIE you brain cancer fool DIE! Yes for once I'm rooting, I really need the points his late-December lying ass would provide. SC

As I stated upon the death of Prince and the ensuing Prince-Bowie argument, it would all be moot if Ali died. This thread for 2016 can be closed. SirC

Vanderbilt University pitcher Donny Everett, 19, drowned at Normandy Lake in Coffee County on Thursday night. According to a report from the Coffee County Sheriffs Department, he tried to swim across the lake while fishing with two friends as well as two Vanderbilt teammates, As most are unaware, this was the night before the NCAA baseball playoffs, like the 65 basketball team March Madness. So it's timing is awful to say the least. SC http://www.tennessean.com/story/sports/college/vanderbilt/2016/06/03/vanderbilt-pitcher-donny-everett-dies-drowning/85330776/

Former Brooklyn Dodgers pitcher Lee Pfund has died. He was 96. Pfund was the father of former Los Angeles Lakers coach and Miami Heat general manager Randy Pfund. The Heat announced Lee Pfund's death on Friday. SC http://www.theolathenews.com/2016/06/03/3111146/former-brooklyn-dodger-lee-pfund.html

Thought we had a thread for odd or strange sports, but alas could t find it. I searched bullfighter and got zero hits, very hard to believe we never had one. The bullfighter Rodolfo Rodriguez, known as “El Pana”, has died from injuries he sustained in the ring a month ago, ending the longest career in Mexican bullfighting. El Pana, so called because he was once a baker (panadero), was 64 when he fought his last bull – ironically named Pan francés – on 2 May in the plaza Durango in Mexico. The bull, catching him off guard, gored him and then threw him into the air. The injuries left him unable to move and barely able to speak, and Rodriguez is said to have asked doctors to allow him to die so that he did not have to live with tetraplegia.

One last Rope-a-dope?! SC

Carla Lane was significant. To Carla Lane's family maybe. Never heard of her. The OP makes a good point that I and prolly a few others were thinking. Carla Lane, pshaw SC

And rushed to ICU though it says 'she's feeling better now." Pfft SC http://bsccomment.com/2016/06/02/sen-santiago-rushed-to-icu-husband.html

George S. Kaufman, who wrote musicals including the aptly-named You Can't Take It With You - 55 years Imogene Coca - 15 years

I didn't realize she was dead (or had lung cancer for that matter). The Housewives gig does nothing for me but when u said Mrs VanLandingham I knew that immediately. SC

FTFY

I think it depends who you ask. IOW who is/are celebs? Brits may include names Yanks ne'er heard of and vice versa. SC

Kris Kristofferson (well how the fuck do you spell it then?), has lived a rough old life at times and he's 80 this year He's on two of my DPs SC

In a few days Boz Scaggs turns 72. This is strictly for information purposes only. He's in the right age bracket though, but he owns a vineyard so he's prolly in fine health and not quite ready to do the Lido Shuffle outta here. SC
