    Charlie Dempsey, the New Zealand football official who controversially denied South Africa the 2006 World Cup in favour of Germany, has died.

     

    When he made the news internationally, the main thing I remembered about him was his bizarre teeth. To mark his passing, here they are again:

    Excellent - the type of horrible f****r who represents all that is bad in sports administration. How could this tool end up in a position whereby he could effectively decide whether the 2006 World Cup went to Germany or S. Africa? And then the gutless wretch couldn't even cast a vote. Good riddance.

    Right wing "political advisor" and chairman of the Committee For A Free Britain, David Hart, is a very sick man and will be dead before too long.

     

     

    David Harts listed on Wikipedia don't - currently - include our croaking man. So, no CPDP points, then.

     

    Well, he is listed on Wikipedia, it's just there are no details about him. A Wiki Red Entry is, I believe, the official term.

     

    It's amazing how wikipedia has gone from open derision on the DL to the authorative source of all things truthful.

    Just heard that last week the oldest living former Major League Baseball player, Bill Werber, turned 100 years old. Not that remarkable, until one learns he is the only ex-teammate of Babe Ruth still alive. When asked if he spent much time out on the town with the notoriously boozy Babe, Werber answered, "Hell no, how do you think I lived to be 100?"

    Comedian George Carlin dead at 71.

     

    To honour the great man's passing, let's see how his "seven words you can never say on TV" get on vs. the DL Sweary Mary Whitehouse Censor:

     

    sh*t, piss, f**k, C-word, cocksucker, motherfucker, and tits [edit - update, 4 out of 7 are deemed "ok" for DL purposes]

     

    He was quite omniscient. Of the words on the list (which dates from the early '70's) today only "piss" is sort of ok on television, although only in the "pissed off" format. "Ass" meanwhile is now totally fine.

     

    A true legend, he'll be missed.

    I can still hear Hendrix, and he's dead.

    Too right. In fact you can hear Hendrix "live." Funny old world.

     

    Bo is dead. check cnn.com

     

    Yes. It is on the main page of drudge report as well. What a year for you clowns!

     

    Here at the DL, we do know Diddley!

    Be a laugh, like. If someone shot him before the cancer saw him off.

     

    It's the Kennedy way.

     

    Awww go easy on him. After all he was the only Kennedy brother not to have slept with Marilyn Monroe

     

    Although he did ensure Mary Jo Kopechene slept with the fishes. Literally.

    Confirmed by the Beeb. Must be true.

     

    Cool, he was previously treated in Middleton St. George Hospital, where I think I was born. Don't remember much of the stay. My mum makes it sound like a right dump. Probably explains a lot.

    I'd happily argue that The Towering Inferno is no Citizen Kane.

     

    Paul Newman occured to me as the only big Hollywood star who has never been in a bad film.

     

    It was nominated for the Best Picture Oscar, plus doesn't Fred Astaire leap to his death in the arms of his implausibly young and gorgeous girlfriend? Cinematic gold.

    Alfred Anderson, the Scots WW1 vet who was also Scotland's oldest man, was my great - grandfather's brother - so that makes me his great -great nephew. I actually knew him well and often used to call and see him when i went home to Scotland. We always got on well and although I'm only his great - great nephew, he always called me his nephew Scot.

     

    So you're a Scot, and your name is "Scot". I don't suppose you could complete the hattrick and tell us that your surname is Scott.

    Bad news for Fritzl: The Austrian authorities have imposed the death penalty.

     

    Good news for Fritzl: John Terry is lining up to take it.

     

    Ha ha. Except there's no death penalty in Austria.

    Should it explode, some say, it will be the worlds biggest non-nuclear explosion. Sheerness would cease to exist, every building flattened by the explosion and the following tidal waves.

     

    Causing millions of pounds worth of improvements....HONK!

     

    Can explosives that have been underwater for sixty years still go off? This sounds like so much sh!te, probably made up by the Chatham/Sheerness tourist board.

     

    But if it were to blow up, at least the theme tune's already been written.

     

    This is the coastal town

    That they forgot to close down

    Armageddon - come armageddon!

    Come, armageddon! come!

    Or Amy Winehouse.

     

    He'll have to fight Pete Doherty for her affections. I suppose it's too much to hope for those two to end up as a couple, because that would be one gene pool well worth preserving.
