    In the 1950's Superman TV show, newspaper boss Perry White would frequently exclaim, "Great Caesar's ghost!" Not sure that is well-enough known for deadline purposes. So, maybe we should go with, "I come to bury Caesar", (and praise the committee for picking him).

    Well that's that then. Next please!

     

    As if those geriatric kiddie-fiddlers would even consider a black guy. After carefully consulting my popeometer I predict it will be:

     

    Cardinal Angelo Scola, Italy. Right age, right nationality, right level of whiteness.

     

    If I read one more article about how "brave" the current one is for stepping down I might have to scream. He's evil, we can all see it in his eyes. Born in Germany in 1927, which couldn't be much more prime for Hitler Youth if he tried. Wait, I just checked Wikipedia, and sure enough, signed up when he was 14. But he was an "unenthusiastic member", according to his brother. Great, glad they cleared that up then. Him and Kurt Waldheim.

    Alright, enough already, I can't take it any longer. I saw the documentary about the "discovery" of "the body Richard III" on Channel 4 last night, and I am calling bull-$hit. At least until there is some corroborating testimony in respect of the DNA evidence, which wasn't presented at all during the programme. What are the odds that this particular skeleton actually was Richard III? Several thousand to one, at best.

    I think I'll hold off on him a bit. 18 months would put his death somewhere in early 2014, but then that Dignitas thing skews that a bit.

     

    Question is: Will Winner use his time to the fullest and wait until the disease gets unbearable to off himself, or will he get it out of the way early? If the former then he'll probably last until late 2013 to early 2014. If the latter he might be gone before Christmas.

     

    I'll keep an eye on him though, just in case I get a repeat of last year and half my picks die in the middle of Hanukkah.

     

    As long as he doesn't make another movie

     

     

    ....or more dreadful insurance adverts!

     

    Calm down dear! It's only a mouse-o-leum.

    Dead at people naming these 6/10 80s blockbusters and forgetting that Scott was behind "Domino", which truly is one of the worst fucking films ever made.

     

    Keira Knightley as a bounty hunter. Just think about that for a second.

     

    Didn't she get her tits out in that one? Not that anyone could tell.......

    This year has been a bad year for the traditional baddy. Osama bin Laden, Colonel Gaddafi, and Kim Jong-il all gone. Hopefully we can squeeze in the Ayatollah before the 1st January.

     

    Is there an Ayatollah at the moment? I mean, a main one, running the show in Iran, like Khomeini? It all got a little confusing after he was succeeded by Khamenei. A bit like how in Lord of the Rings there was Sauron and Saruman. Except the Ayatollahs were probably eviller.

    d'oh!!!

    Woah, fancy new look for the DL. Impressive. Cory Smoot, guitarist of death thrash band GWAR (not sure if I'd heard of them), pulled the old rock 'n' roll classic "die on the tour bus of unknown causes, but we can be pretty sure it was drug and/or alcohol related".

    Apologies if this was posted elsewhere, still trying to find my way around the site.

     

    Edit to add....and there it is, in the pop stars thread, posted yesterday by Space Cooley. Oh well.

    One of the BP villains - Tony Hayward or that old Swedish guy who's based on the baddie from The Spy Who Loved Me. Topping themselves out of guilt, or killed in some sort of karmically-justified drowning. Or blown up in an oil rig inferno.

    This thing is giving me ulcers. I decided to go all strategic (and copy Mono's team), then realised I'm away for the last two weeks so stuffed before I'm started. Too nervous to enjoy the bloody World Cup now. Not that it matters, of course. :P

     

    A question: is there any facility for appointing a captain?

     

    Another question: would Abbey Clancy be going out with Peter Crouch if he wasn't a professional footballer? Just wondered.

     

    Interesting that the good looks of the WAGS seem to be in direct relation with the talent of the football team their husband or boyfriend plays for. Italian, Dutch, Spanish or German players are dating complete foxes, the Aussie and England players are with, by comparison, swamp donkeys.
