Get your "pine top, bottom and sides morelike" gags ready as Pinetop Perkins has died.

I had him in 2010 and replaced him with an oldie for my 2011 DDP team. Yeah, I had him on both my long-list and mid-list and then ditched him for Michelle Harte, which is starting to look like a bad move all round.

I usually recommend a stiff dose of reality as a cure for stupidity, but I doubt reality has entered that dweeb's mind in the last few years. This is your mind on God. She needs to get laid, badly. Y'all know this video was a pisstake, right? I mean it's pretty obvious from watching it.

Blogger Mohammad Nabbous, who recently got himself a bit of coverage as a citizen journalist face of the Libyan revolution, bodied by Gaddafi's mates aged 28.

There's always the pub quiz standby of Total Fretwork Solutions.

Peace out Anna Wing.

Yet another Gough hanging around the cemetery

How many DL picks has she outlived since receiving her last rites now? Six? Seven?

He's been turfed out of Parliament Square, no news on his tumour though.

And Bryan Robson's being treated for throat cancer.

No shit, Nate Dogg is probably the most bummed I've been about a musician's death since... god knows. Jam Master Jay? Knew he was ill but when a guy is dying for that lengthy a period of time you kinda assume they're immortal (via Teddy Pendergrass). Really can't see an argument against him being the best vocalist of the past two decades. Loading 16 in the clip and one in the hole tonight in tribute.

Smiley Culture has stabbed himself to death after police raided his home on drug charges. No word yet if the police officer gave him no producer.

Sometimes I ponder whether or not I'm younger or more "in tune" to the shifting sands of the internet than this forum. If I am, [via this already having over 2 million hits].... Get down on Friday

For those of you who fancy low-picking-yet-really-really-really-not-famous fruit, how about the 98-year-old grandmother of Frank Lampard's ex-girlfriend?

Cesar Luis Menotti looks like he'll be checking out in the next few days. You don't have a World Cup winning manager die for 12 years then you get two in three months...

Stan Lane: not dead.

No celebrities dead yet, but Nintendo has gone to the effort of issuing a press release saying that Pokemon creator Satosh Tajiri is still alive.

Nilla Pizzi has died aged 91. The name will probably mean nothing to anyone here but for those of us who grew up in an Italian household there was always a Pizzi album dragged out at least twice a year. She won the first ever San Remo festival.

Apparently her 75lb weightloss in two months wasn't cancer or a gastric bypass, but rather "cutting out fatty foods". Fuck this yatch, seriously.

Watch him toss himself to death "The pair described as the Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker of porn." I didn't realise 'annoying' and 'not funny' were attributes lacking in the porn industry. Porn and comedy do share something in common: It's all in the timing....know what I mean? Fantastic article about this murder and the associated scene here. Turns out that murder/suicides in the world of racially abusive hardcore pornography aren't all fun and games.

Earth Wind And Fire frontman Maurice "Not the one that did 'Easy Lover' the other one" White has been battling Parkinson's since 1990 apparently.

Wasn't a massive fan of the guy's material but if anyone has a spare hour listen to the interview he did last year about his drug addiction, crime upbringing and HIV. It starts about 17 minutes in.

I think she is actually dead, she's just not famous. Seriously, anyone on this site who is aware of her for being anything other than "the oldest alive person on deadoralive.info" step forward. She may have been "the mother of the Nation of Islam", but that's only because Elijah Mohammed or Malcolm X or some other dude said that once, in the same way that if you meet Hulk Hogan as a kid and he goes "You're the #1 Hulkamaniac", that doesn't actually mean anything.

Here's an interview with American billionaire David Murdock, an 87-year-old who claims that a sore throat he suffered earlier this year was his first ever bout of illness. He's planning his 125th birthday already, but pride is quite often followed by something else.

This woman's been gone two days and has so far only managed to achieve one local newspaper obituary? Are we sure she actually exists and isn't just a prank by DeadOrAlive.info?
