    Authors Last A Long Time, But....

    Well, regarding AODeadpool, an IbTimes obituary in March was not enough to give me points for Dennis Stamp. I think that was just unfair.

    Don't answer Sir Creep. He will only get angrier.

    I think he can survive 2017. Crazy, but likely.

    Thoughts On The 2017 List

    Leah may really be near the end. No tweets and posts in a long period. But I have to say DL is having bad luck, not getting even one bedlocker/centenarian with many people near death. Likely hits: Billy Graham: Parkinson's. He's living beyond human possibilities. Denis Norden: macular degeneration and retired many years ago. Herman Wouk: Respiratory issues and very old. Tony Booth: Alzheimer's, COPD, heart failure, stroke. Why still alive, why? Leah Bracknell: Terminal lung cancer, treatment stopped in May. The only real dead cert on the list now. Jake LaMotta: living in a dislexycal nursing home can not be good for your health. Michael: Leukaemia and skin cancer. Whyyyyyyy still aliveeeee? Nobby Styles: Prostate cancer and dementia. Again, why? Jill Gascoine: Advanced Alzheimer's, but not so likely to go, though there's a good chance. 9. DL needs at least five to beat the record. It should be very unlucky to fail this year. But again, it's simply unexplicable how many good or excellent picks are still alive. Not DL fault indeed.

    Yes, great man. Sorry he died completely forgotten.

    Harry Dean Stanton

    It took three Alien movies to kill Weaver. Will she get to 110?

    Harry Dean Stanton

    So among the Alien cast survivors who's next? *Sir Ian Holm (1931), beat prostate cancer more than a decade ago. He seems in great health nowadays. *Tom Skerritt (1933), no known health issues. *Yaphet Kotto (1939), officially retired from acting in 2014. Few public appearances from him. *Veronica Cartwright (1949), good health and relatively young. *Sigourney Weaver (1949), still acting and excellent health. I'd say either Tom Skerritt or Yaphet Kotto. Following the movie plot it will be Tom Skerritt. When you'll see him hanging around with a firethrower you'll know the end is nigh...

    Well, Lewis Gilbert being still alive 12 years later is astounding! By the way Morgan Woodward turns 92 today

    He's 88, anyway. Not so old.

    Ideas And Possibilities For 2018

    Droller coaster has him but now it feels like he is a wasted pick, having been in remission since April. He won't make it to a ripe age though.

    It's indeed sad to lose a pet. Sorry for your loss.

    Derby Dead Pool 2017

    No. Just did not find a suitable thread and reported it here. I also reported in Dying bigots later, but I think the interest about him is about being picked for the DDP, otherwise his death would have gone unreported on this site, so I posted it here. Don't want to steal your job.

    Dying Bigots

    Marianist René Laurentin has died aged 99. DDP unique.

    You are not new to this forums, Joey. Don't reports hoaxes which are clearly hoaxes. The poorly written article said she died on Sunday while we got positive news from The Sun about her improving health on Monday. It was a total load of bullshit, like the NE on Bob Barker, but though the latest has been reported by complete newbies, a pretty estabilished member like you should recognize, and therefore not post, implausible hoaxes. Thanks.

    TMZ is a good source and they report deaths one minute after they happen. Don't compare it to that absolute rubbish called National Enquirer.

    Bob Barker

    They say everyone is gonna die in six months and once in a decade they get it right (see Michael Jackson). As for Barker it seems complete bullshit.
