    You are either an experienced troll coming back to the forum with a new name or a guy who has not understood at all how this site works. Your first day here was spent spamming threads and if you continue this way a ban may be in sight. Think about it before spamming some other threads.

    You have 1/3 of probability to get a goat if you change and 2/3 to get a car. If you are Sardinian you better not change.

    I knew him because of the Monty Hall problem. One of those logical problems you fail to solve if you think too much about it.

    Thoughts On The 2017 List

    In 2003 there were three months left, in 2017 there are three months left and a lot of excellent picks still breathing. I don't think Michael I, Leah Bracknell, Gord Downie, Nobby Stiles, Jill Gascoine, Billy Graham will all sneak into 2018. At least one of them, at least, will go this winter. I don't see the list going beyond 20 or not even beyond 16, but it can afford 15 without any problem. I say that mainly because: Mary Tyler Moore was not a dead cert. She died of pneumonia and that was pretty unexpected. Joost was expected, but not as a cert. Rockefeller was just old. Brady was not a cert by any means. Noakes was expected, but he could have lived a little more. Sallis was almost a cert, let's say it. Christie was a cert, the only real cert to die. Campbell was almost a cert too. Forsyth was not expected as he seemed on the mend. Jerry Lewis was completely unexpected. Lamotta was old, but surely not a cert. Liz Dawn was ill, but completely unexpected at the beginning of the year. Booth was almost a cert. Hefner was completely unexpected. Only 4/14 we can consider dead certs. At the beginning of the year I thought Bracknell, Downie and Michael were dead certs too, and I have not changed my mind, and they are all still alive. How the hell can you think of surviving the year when you have terminal cancer and are off treatment since March? Come on, on a rational plain the record is super achievable.

    Ideas And Possibilities For 2018

    Nick Castle, director of Dennis the menace who also played Michael Myers in the original Halloween, turned 70 on September the 21st. I can't see him making it to 75, so one to watch for 2018. No particular reason, but that's the way it is.

    Liz Dawn

    DL front page has nit been updated yet. I'm seriously starting to think the committee members have real lives! Anyway Dawn's cause of death was emphysema, while Booth had so many ailments we'll probably never know what caused his death.
