Anton Yelchin had a terrible run-in with his Jeep 2 years ago today, at the age of 27.

You, Bladan, are not beginning to be God; God is not real. You are. Your science may well go over my head and your politics may be quite...alarming (‘polite’ rEAPER word). But it’s entertaining. Keep it up.

Catachresis is a great word. Though, granted, it's not one that's useful extraordinarily often.

You've really been through it lately, drol. So very sorry. Take it easy.

Longview. Excellent track from Green Day's 1994 album Dookie. Longview is also, in essence, about wanking.

In the office, on shuffle. Last three tunes very different from each other. All excellent.

Zoinks! Casey Kasem, off of Shaggy, Scooby Dooby Died on this day 4 years ago, aged 82.

My super 6 predictions for this week. Though I do detest football and as such know absolutely the square root of diddly fuck about it.

He survived countless shootouts, but not cancer. John Wayne died 39 years ago, aged 72.

I want dibs on Chris Evans when he mercifully gets the arse tumour he is due.

Excellent.

Les Dawson's mother-in-law finally got the chance to dance on his grave (unless he was buried at sea) when he died 25 years ago at the age of 62.

Alan Turing, off of abhorrently treated homosexual logicians, logged off on this day 64 years ago. He was 41.

Eh?

Oops. Not embarrassing at all. Could've sworn Dorothy Gish was the latest post when I looked?

Deleted Clive fucking Dunnery.

Maybe not a total cert to reach 100 ?

He was born on a summer's day 1951, and died not quite 60 years later; Andrew Gold slipped away 7 years ago today.

Or inspiration.

Hello and welcome! How honoured we are to be graced with the presence of the 7th in the legendary ThereWillBeDeaths lineage.

Legendary though it may be, it was a nice change to listen to a White Stripes track that isn't Seven Nation Army.

Not strictly a holiday, but I'll be flying with a couple of colleagues to Israel for a couple of days in just over a week. (I don't know the flight number or anything but it's going from LHR to TLV on the afternoon of Monday 11th, I think with BA). New country to tick off the list at least!

Bruce McLaren had a McClang in his car and died at Goodwood aged 32, 48 year ago today.

Hang on a second...
