    The Chequered Flag

    Despite being discussed on here quite a bit, a mixture of "seems to be doing better" and "will he QO?" saw nobody plump for HIntsa on the DDP. Could be a gamechanging error, because he's dead at 58. Ian St John and Rick Davies will be shitting themselves then, the only cancer sufferers axed from my 2016 DDP shortlist still alive now. It's weird to think that if I'd run my "reserves" as a team they'd be in the top 15 right now. You did have him on your Hartlepool Deadpool though, msc, didn't you?

    Death By Jazz

    Really? HottyToddy? I'm guessing NottyDeady.There are a few totally unreputable links all citing hottytoddy and not one news source. Closest I get is this http://jazztimes.com/sections/news/articles/172684-mose-allison-dies-at-89 from Jazz Times who doesn't say the source and it may well be hottytoddy as well. Someone is Mose's stature won't be a secret for long if true. Giving it 3 hours to confirm, then calling hoax. SirC New York Times good enough for ya? http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/16/arts/music/mose-allison-a-font-of-jazz-and-blues-dies-at-89.html?_r=0 Sure. But before that my point was a good one. In any case he was a great one, RIP. SC Daily Mail Obit: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/ap/article-3939924/Mose-Allison-jazz-blues-musician-dead-89.html Guardian one along soon, I assume.

    The Hare's Death Pool

    Damn, elected by popular acclaim to caretaker! I'd say 1 December. Remember though that there's a lot of days until the end of 2016, which is snapping up celebs by the bucketload.

    Death By Jazz

    Single report of the death of Mose Allison just after his 89th birthday. http://hottytoddy.com/2016/11/15/mose-allison-dies-age-89/ Could also have gone in the Blues thread. Been the subject of a death hoax earlier this year, I'd like to see more reports but hey, it's looking like it's being confirmed on Twitter. DDP pick.

    Ideas And Possibilities For 2017

    Shh... I was trying for a unique pick, but you had to ruin it. God dang it. Four teams on this year's DDP; dream on. Don't worry cat. I was only kidding with him/her. Hmm, I'd have said more people are likely to mention her in her own thread than here. https://forums.deathlist.net/topic/8964-shannen-doherty/?p=234909

    Billy Graham

    Let me get this straight. Billy Graham dies before January 20 and Donald Trump emerges from the Earth having two horns, head like a lamb, body as a sheep, tail like a wolf, feet like a goat, and speaking voice like a dragon. He directs people to make an image of the Beast of the Sea who was wounded yet lives, breathing life into it, and forcing all people to bear the mark of the Beast 666. That's what you're saying? I'd say after Trump's election, anything's possible.

    Adam Ant

    Saw him and his band at the De Montfort Hall in May. He was in great form... Thanks TMIB, let's say he wasn't top of my list for inclusion, he he. My late brother had all his stuff of vinyl, including the early stuff. Sadly, I think OldWillz passed it all on to a Church sale....

    Adam Ant always seemed so fit back in the day and I'm not sure how he is doing these days. Anyone have any information? I ask, because he's about to come under consideration along with other Ants for my theme team.
