Lady Die

Bloody hell ... you guys are quick off the mark. BBC link

There's a pic of the Duchess of Kent in this week's Hello magazine at her son's wedding. I've certainly seen her looking better but she doesn't look like someone at death's door.

Mirza Tahir Hussain - Brit, scheduled to be executed in Pakistan on November 1st, but he's already had three stays of execution. Maybe a bit iffy on the famousness front.

I voted Alfredo di Stefano because we could be entering a "run" of dead footballers.

Another link If he dies will he be the Lord of the Danse Macabre?

I didn't know they made Bostik from dead horses. DL can be very educational at times.

Mahathir Mohamad, ex-PM of Malaysia has had a "mild heart attack"

Have fun with fireworks

I hope video footage of his execution finds it's way onto YouTube.

Lovely. Looking at this has given me a warm nostalgic glow. My favourite was always Windy Miller, although I did always hope he'd be killed by the windmill sail.

He's back in court again

I voted for Maggie Thatcher. I want her to die of course, but she's such a tough old bird she'll probably go on for years.

Fingers crossed. He's in my DDP squad. I wonder if his friends call him Shazza?

Maybe we should have a "Some people are sick of Awareness Days" Awareness Day?

Actress Adrienne Shelly has been found dead. Never heard of her.

It's the Day of the Dead today.

When she does pop off it would be apt to bury her in a binliner.

Or work in this office.

I'll make sure I turn up dressed exactly like my new avatar.

Lady Bird Johnson. No particular reason ... just a gut feeling.

Have a minute's silence for someone who's not dead

Roger Federer is "tired".

How does an "each-way" bet on someone dying work? It's obvious LD. The odds are poorer if he comes in third. I see I was thinking along the lines of a "win" being a death .... but I couldn't quite work out what a "place" would be. Neither could I. I added the "each way" because I liked the concept, not that I understand the concept or know whether there is a concept. But there ought to be one. Whatever....
