    Surely Johnson & Johnson should have got the credit for that?

    Ebola and Other Viruses

    Interestingly the Sierra Leone 4x400m team pulled out of the semi final. Precaution?

    Sierra Leone are not in the Commonwealth by any chance?

    Nope, I just make it up on the fly. Maybe I should have a few prepared obits. That's what all the news agencies have. Interesting suggestion...

    Derby Dead Pool 2014

    Thanks for all your kind message. Makes the heart swell with pride... I decided last November that 2014 would be my last year. I have taken it as far as I can go, although there's still room for improvement. The database conversion to html pages for a start. Surely the software has moved on so you conceivably make instant changes rather than cranking up a program. Then there's the loading of new celebs. I abandoned the old method because I couldn't work out a way of adding more years so I imported from Excel instead, which did the job but not without some difficulties, so there's plenty of scope for improvement to make the site more efficient. As for the Theme Team's future, that will be up to the new host to decide. Who will be the new host? Well, I don't know. I shall email all competitors and open up the recruitment process. It doesn't have to be one person, it can be a collaborative effort if they can all decide what to do and who will do it. Cloud technology could make this easier...

    Rolf Harris

    Have a read of the link I posted up the page a bit, and then tell me you feel sorry for the bearded Stylophone-fiddling cunt - I really didn't want to believe it was true of wholesome Rolf, but it is, so I hope he gets bummed to death by Big Ron on A Wing. Big Ron was paroled last week; he's at home on a tag now. Who the fuck is Big Ron?

    Football

    Yes! Alive and kicking. Who did he play for? Wasn't he the one who sat on the ball at Wembley in 1967?

    Rolf Harris

    I'm hoping he will be dead in jan 2015 as he is going on my DDP 2015 list. I might put him on mine too I'm hoping his wife pegs it before Hogmanay, as I've got her as a unique pick on this year's list The Harris family all seem a bit suss to me. I wonder if they're a bit...you know...close.
