    I think her husband's thread was perfectly adequate to accommodate them both.  Easy enough to add her name to the heading.

    Plus, she already got her own thread, she doesn't need another one.


  2. Tbh, I don't want anyone to suffer great pain, even if they are as evil as Ian child killer Brady. I feel like no one should suffer a huge deal of pain as they transition to their demise.

    True, but ALS is unpredictable, as you showed the Israeli sportscaster.

    On the other hand, there's also people who can last a long time with ALS, albeit Mr Stephen Hawking

    Maybe Rosalynn, but Barbara's health is nearly as bad as her husbands, she should really have her own thread.

    Barbara has has heart surgery, grave's disease, and has been hospitalized twice for pneumonia and bronchitis in the past 2 years.

    And they both do: 

    Cat O'Falk, where are you? 


  5. I will try to guess 16 anyways cause it is still possible. If I had a guess:

    1. Mary Tyler Moore

    2. Joost van der Westhuizen 

    3. David Rockefeller 

    4. Hugh Hefner

    5. Ian Brady (really strong gut feeling here)

    6. King Michael of Romania 

    7. Herman Wouk

    8. Ian St John

    9. Gord Downie 

    10. Jake LaMotta

    11. Errol Christie 

    12. Tony Booth 

    13. Bruce Forsyth 

    14. Glen Campbell 

    15. Kirk Douglas (if the record is broken, it'll be someone who's big)

    16. George Bush Sr 

     

    Although doing this list is reminding me how good certain picks are. And I do have the feeling one of our cancer folk will make it to 2018, and it's not Gord Downie...

     


  6. I think Akihito is actually a decent pick due to him abdicating soon. He might be a year early though . Gay Byrne, on the other hand, has prostate cancer that isn't really that bad, and I think he's overreacting. I would guess one of the poor picks would go, but I felt like that job was already done (albeit MTM).

    I feel like a lot of these names don't feel deathlisty. Zandvliet, Bannister, Lloyd, and  Big Van Vader don't feel like the type the committee would pick. Others aren't that ill, and some, such as Gasciogne and Samson wouldn't really be good picks. Oh, and I'm assuming Leah Bracknell would be #4 :P

    Msc you are obviously coming from a place of bias. Sponge Bob is one of the most popular kids shows ever. This argument is over Stephen Hillenburg the creator of spongebob is defiantly obitable. 

    He's not arguing over his obitability, we all know he will obit quite easily. He's arguing that he's not the sort of name you would see on the deathlist front page.

  9. Bush Sr still looks a bit frail imo. I think he will see his 93rd birthday, but I don't know how long after that he'll last. I'll estimate his death will come in 3-4 months or so, but I could be wrong.
