Probably the Zep track I rate best tbh.

Achilles Last Stand? I know it's not, I just wanted you to have a guess. (Actually, was going to go for Tubular Bells till i twigged "vocals")

Jack Charlton got to Banks funeral but looks fucking old. Mind you, Ross Kemp's really let himself go...

Luke Perry's died. Big hearthrob among the girls at school in the 90s. Ya ever feel really old? And Joey's singing the 902010 (Overture?) blues as Banana gets the unique points. DDT was humming and hawwing over him, I bet Death Impends is relieved right about now. Round 2 1. Rad Vs. Yorkshire Banker 0-0 2. Chorizo Vs. Grim Up North 0-0 3. Clorox Vs. Alt Obits Guy 0-0 4.

Richard A Neilson 94 Sherman, CT Luce Ennis Neilson Richard A Neilson This dude the right age lives in the same place as Pertwee died. I think the other relative in same house (Luce) is presumably a wife.

It would if they mentioned it on their website! Currently its that BBC Radio reference to Cynthia Heimel's death.

This (and several other) family planning mags mention his death. Who knew such things existed? Points for Banana, DI and Joey. This points Mr Impends in an early lead in a tough tie, whereas Joey and Banana are 2 for 2 on similar picks. Amazing what happens when folk Google search on the final hours. EDIT - Or not, as Joey has just PM'd me to remind me this was actually Banana's joker and he should lead 9-6 instead. Someone would have noticed that error, but I applaud the opponent for fair play.

On his Cup form Biblio might be the runaway favourite for this title!

imo the best diet is the balanced diet, you know, with all the necessities - fruit, veg, meat, chocolate...

OK, I know most folk gave up on my Shortlist post after 2 sentences, but from last year: - Kenny Richey (1964) - Scot who was on Death Row in the US for 20 years, despite dodgy evidence. Got cleared in 2007, promptly became a raging alkie, got cancer, tried suicide several times and had a breakdown. Now allegedly on the wagon, but has suffered a stroke and five heart attacks in the last few years! On borrowed time imo.  Now here to add - only guy keeping him on that wagon has now cut ties with him and chucked him out from a "clean up place for folk in Richey's spot".

I did, though Kerslake is a mumbler and the host (and his 20 min rant about lip synching) was very dull. The 4 take aways, as much as there was: - His PSA count is 2025!!!! (200 iirc is cancer, 300 is emergency) - He "Can feel it in my back because its in the bones and spine." - He mumbles the drug name to sound like zalmandah, I tried several times and couldn't make it out clearly. Possibly Zometa which is for metastatic prostatecancer, and which slows some of the nastier cancer effects (like bone fractures). - NHS gave him a year to live in June 2018.

Surely a contender for Greatest Forum Thread ever.

Hi, welcome to Deathlist Forums, you must be new.

What do you call a three legged donkey? A wonkey. ^ Funnier post, imo.

Would never have pegged Harley as first of the 4 1970s aces living (Race, Flair, both Funks) to go. Still hasn't mind you.

Death notice in the NYT for Janet Asimov, 92: widow and collaborator of Isaac, and notable writer/academic in her own right.

Nobody mentioned the death on Feb 6th of Dutch etymologist Dick Blok. Because despite being clearly a learned old gent in his field, neither would I if not for his name. Onomastics was new to me. Stay for the smut and accidentally learn something...

Had a "No, Not Uncle Jack!" moment there before twigging that were Paul Jones (Manfred Mann) who is alive and well.

First time I've led the Hartlepool Deadlypool since January 2012!

"Have to say goodbye". It counts. Points. The Hatter gets his joker in, which means in 3 Cup rounds (to date) he's scored a minimum of 6 each time, so far. Round 2 1. Rad Vs. Yorkshire Banker 0-0 2. Chorizo Vs. Grim Up North 0-0 3. Clorox Vs. Alt Obits Guy 0-0 4. Maryportfuncity Vs. The Quim Reaper 3-0 5. DDT Vs. Death Impends 3-3 6. The Dead Cow Vs. Deadsox 0-3 7. Charon Vs. Engineer 0-0 8.

I know of Hammer because she's a DDP pick. And Alt Obits Pick. And Hares Pool pick, etc. As presumably did the few folk who sent her in pre-25th Feb (not including Joey, who waited till the last minute, and Reptile, who picked her on the DDP in the first place anyhow). What happen is thus: circa 80% of people in the Cup (including Sir Creep ftr) don't just send in their team and that's it. They ask queries about folk being allowed, they hum and haw, then they finally send in a bloody team on the final day which, after all this, is 90% names everyone already knew. Not talking with each other (that I know of), just to the host. More so since the FFBI bar came in. "Is this person allowed?" "No." "But they once worked with Casey Kasem, here's their CV and references!" And so on. "Can I send a team in 20 mins?" "Yeah?" (4 hours later) "Ok, I still need to work on my Joker..." Reptile, for example, asked about a whole lot of borderline cases (eg those cystic sisters), and wasn't the only one. And so on. That's it. And the fucking joke (which is on me) is that having congratulated Reptile on an under the radar pick for the DDP on January 2nd, he had far more faith in my deadpool research than most sane people do, and assumed I'd remember her. So when I wished him good luck in the Cup, he noted her as a likely shared pick. And yes, I had in fact Google found her the week before my team went in (don't we all do string searches for feminists with cancer in the news in the last month? Among many others?) then promptly forgot to add her to Cup shortlist. A wee Doh bit of a laugh at my own misfortune, I thought. Oh well. So, now I've explained why you've gone off on a tangent about fuck all, can you please stop badmouth my credibility as a host, thanks? Before I start to get grumpy.

Re Pedroza - I think Drol gave us all a small hint a month ago...

Pedroza died early Friday, local time ie today, 1st March. So points for nearly every player except Grim ( ) by looks of it, soon as the English speaking world notices.

We need something to distract from this inanity. That'll do! Awaiting the usual... Now see if he fucking died in fucking February...
