Online version says "I want to kill myself". Well who are we to stand in the way of ambition! (Now what are those guidelines on assisted suicide?)

My fingers are crossed and I'm drooling with anticipation. ( I don't suppose you can name a date....?)

Can't be doing with that sh*te, but sh*te does it for me every time. Might work on our stressed out colleague, if only to show him others can have a worse day at work than he seems to. A little perspective is called for methinks, .

Ludovic Kennedy - nearly 90, + advocate of voluntary euthanasia, + clarification on law regarding asisted suicide = prime candidate!

Gone

Just reported dead is 'The Swamp Thing" star Dick Durock, of pancreatic cancer, age 72.

Well, Nietzche said that God was dead some 80 years before John T. Elson posed the question... True, but Nietzsche hasn't just died and he was insane!

Quite right. Only 40 grand a week to play on bumpy pitches? Please!

The journalist who asked 'Is God Dead' (Time 1966) John T. Elson has died. Incidentally, Is God dead?

I too have hankered after an iPhone and I was gutted to discover there is no reception from O2 anywhere in my house or garden. On the plus side I found this out when I was issued with a mobile phone for my job, means my 'clients', for want of a better word, and especially a couple of my colleagues, can't contact me when I am at home . Now thats what I want, 'cos my mobile phone works perfectly at home (where naturally I have a land-line and thus no real need for a mobile phone) but only works at work when it's a prime number of minutes past the hour and I'm standing on one leg whilst doing an impersonation of David Coleman's Spitting Image puppet. This shouldn't be a problem as I also have a land-line but for some reason the rest of the staff prefer to send me text messages which invariably I don't receive till I get home - by which time whatever they were texting me about is completely irrelevant! These may help. I am considering one, but at £335 I may have trouble getting finance (Mrs Josco) to sign it off. Its a possible solution but why piddle around with a mere 500 sq m coverage when for only £1495, you can get 5000 sq m!

Just spotted this obit in the guardian. Fulfils all the criteria for this thread Ewan Kerr He must have loved his schooldays!

Bricks are so marvellous, they've even got there own lane and have been immortalised in film but James May's lego house has now been demolished

Peter Denyer, Dennis Dunstable of 'Please Sir!' is reported dead at 62.

So bricks aren't your thing then? Curses! Must have spelt his name wrong when I searched. Bricks? I love Bricks.

Arthur Ferrante, half of piano-playing duo Ferrante & Teicher, has died in Longboat Key Florida, at age 88. I remember them appearing quite frequently on TV when I was a kid, often playing some film theme, like .

Try writing poetry.

When you've had a tough week at work, been called back in to cover for absentee staff on Friday night after working all day, got out of work after 1 am, got to bed at 2am, then been woken up at 8:15 on Saturday morning by ignorant fking bastar'd builders (who are working on a conversion that all the neighbours objected to) using whatever power tools they can get their hands on.

I don't even think she was raped. Pete's just released a new album and everyone is on his team - she needs some way of keeping in the papers, and creating this bullshit is just the ticket. And fancy, ringing up Matthew Wright to talk about it - he of the 'ooops did I say John Leslie out loud' malarkey. She's full of sh*t. I thought she was a total waste of space before all this, and now I know I was right. She needs euthanasing. Well said! No doubt the likes of Julie Burchill will be typing a thesis on why we should leave Jordan alone and that she's an icon of our times etcetera etbloodycetera... No, Julie Burchill will be saying how she also got raped and how brave price is for speaking out about it (even though she's treating it like it doesn't matter - in fact its like 20 questions - was it someone famous? yes. was it someone scottish? yes. In a few more days there'll be another little snippett slipped out (was he a children's TV presenter?))
