Godot, I appreciate your reply, i am however not famous and therefore am not on your list, thankfully. I appreciate that the majority of what goes on on this site is like you say a prediction of odds, if you will. I bet on footy, you bet on which celeb croaks it next. Each to there own! The reason for my rant was more at the jokes that were being gained from another persons misfortune. Now Hein asks the question of do I have the same admiration for other sufferers or is it because of the media that I feel strongly for Paul Hunter. My answer to that is yes I do have the same admiration and feelings for all my fellow cancer sufferers and survivors - i don't however react in the same way and post it on forums as there often isnt a forum for the people I know so discussing it isnt possible. With paul being in the media limelight it makes it possible for people such as ourselves to comment and discuss his passing as we are. I appreciate that there is an honesty in that and I guess for myself it is just difficult to comprehend what it is about people's health or passing that provides such entertainment for people. Being a survivor of Cancer, and yes Hein I am aware that it isn't the Killer its always made out to be and nor am I scared of it - I must admit I am personally thankful for my experience with Cancer as it has given me a greater outlook on life - and wiser more mature view on things. I understand most of you on here aren't as I put it Sick F*cks - but please understand my own girlfirend is currently being tested for suspected breast cancer so currently cancer has a even more prominent role in my life, yet again making me somewhat more sensitive to the comments I read on this site! Please enjoy what's left of 2006 and I hope your predictions come right. My money's on Norman W! Thanks for entertaining my views, nice to get some remarks that actually make a point as opposed to our pal Saint Peter! Regards, Ash

Nice of you to drive by, take the time to sign in and leave us a long post. You old 'Soulja' you. More boiling blood me thinks. FYI : I am looking forward to cashing in my own chips. There is enough people up there now to have a good party, Mr Hunter being one. Saint Peter - I don't think you quite understand. My blood doesn't boil at what you people write on here - Everyone's entitle to their opinion hence why I posted mine! Now you may poke fun at my "Soulja" comment but unless you have something really worth saying then maybe you should shut the f*ck up! You may well be looking forward too "cashing your own chips in" as you so put it - but that only leads me to believe your life on earth is Sh*t, you unlike Paul obviously don't have an attractive wife or a 10month 0ld baby daughter that you want to see grow up. So Saint go cash your chips in - see how much fun the after life is! No deathlist blogs for you to write on all day!

To the sick F*cks on here! I was searching Paul Hunter on Google and up comes the DeathList Forum - now at first I assumed it was a website dedicated to placing heartfelt and meaingful comments for the recently deceased - I now see that isn't the idea here at all. Being a cancer survivor myself at the mere age of 20 I might add, the untimely death of Paul Hunter really hit home with me. At any moment this disease can take one of us - wihtout warning or reason. For those of you who make fun and pass comment on Paul's passing in a negative way, it is clear that you have neither suffered with or been close to a person who has suffered from cancer. The things Paul had to go through in order to even give himself the chance to see his young daughter be born are things many people would not be able to handle let alone do it all in the limelight of the media and nation - and still put on that brave face, and a big smile. The battle that Paul fought was for much of the time one sided - some on here may say he was merely postponing the inevitable. How ever true this may be Paul's battle was not in vein - by coming on TV and performing as he did he proved to us all that nothing can break the human spirit when we are dedicated and show true determination. He is a positive role model to many who are currently fighting the disease, who have fought it and even for those who are lucky enough not to have had to fight it. I appreciate that many people have a morbid sense of curiosity ( i too have watched the iraq beheadings - why, who knows!) but too post comments on here undermining what Paul has been through and achieved I feel is highly distasteful and misguided. Cancer is no laughing matter - it affects many millions of people be it directly or indirectly. It might just be you who's the next 1 in 3 - I never thought it would be me! My heart goes out to Paul and his family - Rest In Peace - Your a Soulja! Rant over! Ash Morgan London
