    I'm gonna make it. I just did not want to enlarge the amount of threads on DL as many of them are really useless.

    My cat has passed away quite suddenly. I know it is not fitting for a grown man but I am crying my guts out at the moment.

    None of the above. Random.org says Sandy Gall (at third try, after Downie and Domino).

    Authors Last A Long Time, But....

    Yes, Bucket of Bloood is going to finish fifth and if everything stays this way I'm finishing sixth. The difference between BoB and Drollercoaster was the latter's inabilty to cash in the joker, which doomed my possibilities to make the top five. Anyway it would be a good result, expecially for a debut.

    Advent Avalanche 2017

    Here is what I think about definitive picks: 1)King Michael: three weeks ago we all believed he was fucked. Though he is still with us he has a great probability of dying before 2018, anyway it does not seem imminent anymore. I'd say he has very good chances. 2)Bob Newhart. Only old and not so much. It would be an incredibly lucky strike to score with him. Very little chances 3)Rabbi Einhorn. Cranky old, but not much more. I'd say little/normal chances, but knowing Spade he'll be dead by tomorrow. 4)Wilson Harris: Incredibly old, but no known illnesses. Lucky strike needed here. Little chances. 5)Ami Brown: She was on her deathbed a month ago. Her hour must be very near. Excellent chances. 6)Carol Channing: Old good health sufferer. Very very lucky strike needed. Little chance. 7)Peter Overton. Oh, terminally ill from May. Very good chances 8)Lucia Hiriart. Old and fat but not in immediate danger. Seems a bit random. Very little chances. 9)Shane McGowan: Always ill but again he is not on the menu this year it seems. Little chances. 10)Nobby Stiles. Yes, he is going away and soon as he is spending his days sleeping in a nursing home for the terminally ill. Very good chances. 11)Naryan Dutt Tiwari: Old and suffered a stroke, but it has been a month since it happened. Still Good Chances. 12)Franco Zeffirelli: Ok, he is ill and old, but not so ill. He made some appearances recently so he seems to be heading for 2018. Little chances. 13)Valerie Harper: Not likely. She has cancer, but is still working. I think December is out of question. Very little chances. 14)Billy Graham. Oh, come on, he is just eternal. Little Chance. 15)Andrew Apostoli: Unknown, but very ill as I can understand. Very good/excellent chances. 16)Johnny Halliday. Very ill but seems a lock for 2018. Medium chances. 17)Leslie Phillips: Oh, he is still alive. How the hell? Medium chances- 18)Patrick Cryne: He has been terminally ill for a long time, but many already wrote his name on 2018 list. Good Chances. 19)Bill Lucas. Just old, but could be a surprise. Little Chance- 20)Leah Bracknell: From a rational point of view she is fucked, but from a yoga/ new age point of view she is perfectly fine. So only Good Chances. 21)Marsha Hunt. Only old, but still fit. Dim chances. 22)Mark E. Smith: He is clearly ill, but not on his deathbed. Discreet chances. 23)Rayya Elias: Same as Leah Bracknell. Good Chances. 24) Quen Elizabeth II. Impossible. 25)Vanessa Goodwin: Yes, really on the clock. Excellent chances. So it is between Ami Brown, Vanessa Goodwin and Andrew Apostoli. Anyone else would be a surprise, you decide if big or small.

    George Bush Senior

    Ok. I guess she is a child star who lives in Hollywood, backed by Disney's. Yes, the prediction is pretty accurate then.

    It seems he can pull a Ric Flair and survive this hospitalization.

    Robert Mugabe

    He will be impeached, that's all. He's harming himself, they offered him a quiet retirement but the dick refused. I'd like to see him dead by starvation, but that won't happen.

    No, he is definitely alive. TMZ would know he is dead in three zeptoseconds.
