To die for

felt his way down

That should be approved now Yeh! Thank you Handy.

Ok, I've finally given in to peer pressure and joined. I've submitted my request to Deathlist.net, please accept me, I'm feeling all lonely and unwanted.

There was also an advert on TV showing a motorbike doing something very similar, the "Now you see him, now you don't" one. I thought at the time, how is that the car driver's fault? Then you see the stupid bastards making their own lane down the white lines on the motorway to undertake the cars in the outside lane. No wonder motorcycists make up a good proportion of the roadkill.

Someone who knows how to complain. Of course, although the writer appears to be intelligent and literate, he wasn't smart enough to realise that you're not supposed to taste the meal or even look at it closely and that reading any sort of airplane menu will only lead to confusion and a gastro identity crisis. Its not food, you're just supposed to think that it is.

I look forward to watching it HAHA you don't actually think I'm going to let you WATCH it, do you? D'ya think I'm mental or summat? Oh, hang on....... We had an impromptu karaoke session last night, no proof though. We must meet up sometime to see who can inflict the most damage on a song. Oh no, not the karaoke I've just had re-sent, has brightened my dull day no end. Will be playing it on and off all day until (hopefully) someone throws my PC out of the window

I don't think she'll make it to the weekend - April 10th

Maybe he could double for Sting

Now I can see where Lardy is coming from but.... No actually I can't, let them drive fast, crash lots and pick a scoring system that pisses Bernie off. Budget caps, pointless technology curbs, everything green, next they'll be racing 2CVs round a dodgem track. Add to that the tame "safe" circuits with "proper" hospitality areas in countries who's F1 supporters have enough cash to buy a race and where's the spectacle?

The sweepstake had me wandering around the internet looking for some more appropriate animation: Wheel of Fortune It seemed somehow...appropriate.

Oooo...yeh gambling I'm torn between 4th April - just because any donkey I bet on ends up dead (Grand National - the only horse race I bet on) or 10th April - Goody Friday This site is full of sick bastards who are all going to die. I thought this forum was a bastion of good spelling and grammar with a slightly twisted sense of humour. Reading this thread has shattered that illusion. What the f**k is going on here, “March 4th”, “March 6th” etc. it’s (the) 4th (day of) March. Even the system date is in Septic nonsense format. Friday the 13th of March seems like a fitting departure date to me. All right, all right, I'll play properly. I only usually post as a guest when I'm at work(as I am now) but your self righteous disgust has me hedging on the 4th April.

Mostly dead

Hey Lardy, I also went to Wembley (the Saturday) possibly the most fantastic band live EVER! Oasis - pair of twats, but saw a very good tribute band called Champagne Super-nova a few years back I went on the Friday, I was completely blown away, I used to go to many gigs in my youth, but this was the first one for a year or two. I shouted very loudly the whole way through, and acted like a complete teenager. I agree, possibly the best live band I've seen, although (and don't flame me, music lovers) Robbie Williams puts on a damn good show when he's up for it, and Tom Jones does too. Worry not....I've also been to a lot of gigs, thought Robbie at Leeds was good too. I've been told that most of my musical favourites are "cock rock" by the music aficionados, do I give a toss? Nope! We all like what we like.

And lets not forget that brave girl, Joanne Evans. She appeared in a national British newspaper - more than twice! (So is everybody picking on BCAlum now?) I was just remembering that Stalin once said "One death is a tragedy; a million is a statistic"

First of all, nobody outside of the celebrity-obsessed Americans gives a sh*t about Heath Ledger, Brad Renfro or Allan Melvin, none of whom made any lasting, global contributions to their field. They were good in whatever particular niche they had, a larger niche albeit, but insignificant to the majority of the planet. Pleshette is borderline, but at least she was a damn fine entertainer. Second, there's a world outside of Hollywood entertainment. I don't call it non-notable when one the Arab world's foremost composers, Norway's most prominent philosopher, one of India's finest filmmakers and an almost legendary British artist die. Even from an Americentric view your argument fails: what about a former attorney general or the man who invented the Pell Grant that has helped so many get through college? I may not have known about all these people beforehand, but I can at least acknowledge their notability now that I do. As for Obama, you can read my thoughts about him in his thread. As to your point #1, where was the "Obama effect" when hundreds of innocent women and children were killed in the conflict operation? I'm glad that the killing 1,500 Palestinians at a ratio of one militant or policeman for every two civilians is "great news" for you. I'm glad that Hamas retaliation killing innocent Israelis is "great news" for you. Some of them, mostly militants, definitely deserved it. Most of them, however, did not. If the "Obama effect" gives the big middle finger to Arab women and children and Israeli innocents, then it's just as overrated as he is. Again, I'm not here to argue the merits of the war, just pointing out that it did very little to save almost 1000 innocent people (combining the Israeli and Palestinian totals). But I guess since it saved 150 or so American lives, that's what's really important. The economy is in a downturn, thousands are losing their jobs and their homes, but it's nothing but "great news" for you. And certainly Patrick Swayze's being alive has nothing to do with the top-of-the-line medical care he receives because of his wealth. I guess the "Obama effect" doesn't give a sh*t about Fathead Newman, Griffin Bell, Gautam Goswami or any of the thousands of people who have died from the disease that don't even get a mention on a Wikipedia. And on a personal note, the founder of the place that I used to work at and the father-in-law of my cousin died on January 1 at the age of 62. He had his problems, but I respected him a lot because he was a poor guy who worked his ass off to become a rich guy and never forgot where he came from. He always treated people with fewer means than him as equals and did what he could to help out. He was no saint, but he was a damn good guy. So here's a personal f**k you from him to your "this year is a slow year for death" bullshit. Maybe you meant just celebrities, but it was a stupid comment either way. I'm so pissed (American pissed), I can't even finish. What a crock of sh*t this all is. This is even worse than your "not enough people have died today" phase. Hey CP, Well said, I'm not American so the "Obama Effect" just seems like another excuse for meaningless statistics put together by a prick someone with the intellect of BCAlum2000 et al to try and prove something that they likely suggested in the first place. In who's world is war a good thing? Not mine. Are the forums being infected by another bout of the Dave/iAiN syndrome now that they have made it through play-skool? (I'm only suggesting that they have learned to type!)

Twilight - as usual, not a patch on the book. Add a group of kids who really shouldn't have been let out alone and my £5.25 wasn't that well spent.

Happy New Year! May your glass always be filled, may your relatives have gone home and may Jools Holland and his Rhythm and Blues Orchestra remain in the late slot.

I can understand putting in "vegetarian" as a life-style choice that might contribute to health, but "naturalist"? If you meant "naturist", I still don't see how that would give you anything but hypothermia. I voted "drink, smoke, eat, never die", good poll!
