YESSS, deadsox! We did it, it happened, we are rich, we are extremely rich, we... oh wait, it's a hoax... you have lost your house forever, my friend.

Susannah Mushatt-Jones is living way too much! She will die the day before the death of Zsa Zsa, Fidel, Kirk Douglas and Bhumibol.

Hopefully the next one will be before 2020. (awaits Doc Zorders comment about mass-Islamic bumming-to-death of Cameron wearing a 'Peppa-pig' gimp mask) I was making internet comments about Cameron sexually submitting to Islamic figures in like fucking 2012 while you were most likely still making Baby's First Political Comments™ about how the likes of "Mitt Romney" would start World War 3 if he won, just merely by not being Magicalman Magibama, etc. (and you had the cheek to call yerself right wing in the chat the other day) I don't need a prompt from you or some carpetbagging fake geordie / GenericGuyWhoPretendsToDespiseMeButDreamsAboutMeInTheShower(Notthatthatsecondpartreallydifferentiateshimfrommostpeople) In 2008 I thought Obama was just an idiot. In 2016 I know he's a dangerous idiot.

No one apparently cared. Strange, he's indeed a big name.It's not that no one cares about his death, rather no one even cares about Nobel prize winners during their life. Name five, quick! See.SC Living Paul Berg, Desmond Tutu, Dario Fo (not deserved at all), Henry Kissinger, James Watson, Alice Munro, Bloembergen, Peter Higgs exc, exc. Dead: Crick, Sanger, Transtromer, Kertesz, Shapley, Nash, Kohn, Coase, Levi Montalcini, Pirandello, Einstein, Deledda, Selma Lagerlof, exc. Want me to continue?No. I'd like you to stick to this century. Are you suggesting those 'living' names are household names anywhere, cuz if so I'm suggesting you're a pinhead. Take away the 'Peace' prize (you forgot Obama) and no one knows any science related names at all. We don't care about them. Thank you for proving my point. SC If I am Pinhead you are Freddy Krueger,

3rd November 2016. If he passes November, he will die in 2019.

Next is The Undertaker. He can't live for long because he's: 1)too tall 2)heavy 3)full of tattoos 4)he tooks steroids when he was younger 5)His streak is over so the company does not need him anymore 6)WWE then will sell little Undertaker graves, build Undertaker Towers, commercialize human parts of the Undertaker, exc. So he's next. His next opponent at Wrestlemania is death and this time he will lose.

Anyway, I'm not surprised. I would be surprised if Zsa Zsa Gabor finally stretches her amputated legs.

The world goes backwards: the queen turns 90 and the prince dies!

We are actually way ahead of the curve 5 hits in the first third of the year. Often the Autumn can provide some surprises. I don't agree with every name on the list but my Shadowlist is way behind so I am not going to criticize. Yes, maybe you're right. I only said they could improve. Unfortunately Zsa Zsa, Billy Graham, Bhumibol, Castro, Olivia, Douglas will never die so they are only dead weight although they must stay on the list. What really makes the difference are the other picks; I agree that Peter Sallis will probably die (like Havelange, Adams, Carrington) but the rest is messed up (Piggott? Walker? Gall? Mary Tyler Moore? Tommy Chong? James Randi? Doug Ellis? what did they smoke?). Still not sure Carrington will go. He looks like he has 100 written all over him. Still think MTM is a good call but Walker and Gall might be canny picks. We have to lose 25 each year so new blood has to come from somewhere. I still think there are at least 12-13 on the list. Maybe even 15. You are optimist but MTM won't go this year.... and you said Carrinhton is not done yet. Plus John Noakes is a horrible pick, while Dennis Norden seems to be OK. And Kissinger won't die this year we all know. Chirac, Gazza? Bad bad picks. Hope it does not go so bad but it won't be a record list like 2015.

Yes, old Communists are hard as hell.

Patricio Aylwin was on my list. He fell in December and was hopeless since then. In Accordance to me he is a great miss, just like Howard Marks.

If DL 2016 fails, scoring less than 10 deaths, the committe has to consider some changes for next year.... This year they really risk a 2011-like failure and I will be not surprised if that actually happens.

Towards the beginning of December - a thread will be posted asking "Who should be on the 2017 Deathlist?". The committee may or may not pay attention to it, but I'm pretty certain celebrities mentioned in that thread have been included in years past. Pearl Washington died today. I remember someone saying he was not going to see 2017. Patricio Aylwin died yesterday aged 98 and he was in a horrible condition ever in december. Deathlist refused to pick them (maybe Washington is not so famous, yes) or Howard Marks to pick Lester Piggott, Murray Walker, Mary Tyler Moore, Glenn Campbell and none of them is gonna die this year.

Italian journalist Emiiano Liuzzi died on April 6th aged 46 and journalist Stefano di Michele died on 16th April aged 56. 6 plus 10 and 46 plus 10, amazing. Two Communist journalists less, so these are not sad demises.

Mel Brooks is a German Jew and Jews usually live more than 90 years so I think he will reach 98-99. On the other hand Gene Wilder is a Russian Jew and Russian Jews live more than German Jews so Brooks won't outlive Wilder.

And he's my 8th hit after 32 days of silence! 32 DAYS!

British Actress Karina Huff died aged 55. She took parte to many unwatchable Italian comedies in the 80s. http://www.repubblica.it/spettacoli/cinema/2016/04/18/news/e_morta_karina_huff_la_bionda_susan_di_sapore_di_mare_-137903693/

Are The Dl Forums Too Hostile For New Members And Sane People?
drol replied to Deathray's topic in DeathList extra-curricular
Too much forums and no deaths make droll a dull boy. Too much forums and no deaths make droll a dull boy. Too much forums and no deaths make droll a dull boy. -
Almost incomprehensible translation job from Google. Almost incomprehensible translation job from Google. Deathlist picked the wrong Chirac.

You nearly killed me!
