I see dead people

my local pub is where the Kinks played their first ever public gig. Apparently they visit occasionally but I have never seen them.

On the bright side nuclear holocaust means we will be odds on for the best Death list year ever! Hurrah!

I have to agree with josco The original 12 cartoons have to be taken in context. Most of them are just artist depictions of Prop. Muhammed just standing around. The virgin cartoon was supposed to be humour based on the preaching of clerics who stated that suicide bombers would each have 70 virgins. I agree that depicting all Halibuts as terrorists is wrong, and perhaps the turban shaped bomb was too far. But what a reaction, glad they didn’t publish the Bush does Hammed pic.

I have had a fair share of celeb encounters, but I don’t like to talk about it. But since you asked, one such celebrity and probably the most notorious and popular in the UK is Les Dennis , it was May 2004, location Washington pub , Belsize Park…..it was a warm evening and a group of us were successfully lubricated, after noticing Les Dennis almost on his lonesome, we ‘dragged’ Les into our drinking sesh. Anyway Les “bloody” Dennis (as we now called him) joined us afterwards at a friends house, (I shared a taxi with him – he paid). I got his mobile number as he said he would attend a party I was organising. I texted him the day before the party to remind him and he replied saying he would attend. He did not turn up, Les “Bloody” Dennis!

Bored? then text a humorous message to any landline in the UK and the message will be delivered by the voice of Tom Baker. I made him say a whole host of swear words, and then I got bored again. For even more fun make sure you text a random landline. the story

Just goes to show the power of the Sun. Make up a story about Deathlist and an ageing rocker and suddenly it is in the mainstream. Wow i am cynical, but its great recognition for the Deathlist, congrats!

A Joke Thread is not complete without Tommy Cooperisms...............although this might be distinctly British humour. 1. Phone answering machine message - "...If you want to buy marijuana, press the hash key..." 2. A guy walks into the psychiatrist wearing only Clingfilm for shorts. The shrink says, "Well, I can clearly see you're nuts." 3. I went to buy some camouflage trousers the other day but I couldn't find any. 4. I went to the butchers the other day and I bet him 50 quid that he couldn't reach the meat off the top shelf. He said,"No, the steaks are too high." 5. My friend drowned in a bowl of muesli. A strong currant pulled him in. 6. A man came round in hospital after a serious accident. He shouted, "Doctor, doctor, I can't feel my legs!" The doctor replied, "I know you can't, I've cut your arms off". 7. I went to a seafood disco last week...and pulled a muscle. 8. Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly. They lit a fire in the craft, it sank, proving once and for all that you can't have your kayak & heat it. 9. Our ice cream man was found lying on the floor of his van covered with hundreds and thousands. Police say that he topped himself. 10. Man goes to the doctor, with a strawberry growing out of his head. Doc says "I'll give you some cream to put on it." 11. "Doc I can't stop singing The Green, Green Grass of Home." "That sounds like Tom Jones syndrome. " "Is it common? " "It's not unusual." 12. A man takes his Rottweiler to the vet. "My dog's cross-eyed, is there anything you can do for him? " "Well," says the vet, "let's have a look at him" So he picks the dog up and examines his eyes, then checks his teeth. Finally, he says, "I'm going to have to put him down." "What? Because he's cross-eyed? " "No, because he's really heavy" 13. Guy goes into the doctor's. "Doc, I've got a cricket ball stuck up my backside." "How's that?" "Don't you start." 14. Two elephants walk off a cliff...boom, boom! 15. What do you call a fish with no eyes? A fsh. 16. So I was getting into my car, and this bloke says to me "Can you give me a lift?"

Ireland's worst air disaster occurred early this morning when a small two-seater Cessna plane crashed into a cemetery. Irish search and rescue workers have recovered 1826 bodies so far and expect that number to climb as digging continues into the night.

Thanks Hein, Maybe I am, either way I'd stay well clear of the Fidel Castro thread looks too militant for me. Last raging argument I read was that all Cubans wear rags, nothing to do with us Marxist Brothers

Lord Lichfield has moved on

Did he have his 'Third Stroke?' Pat Simmons has clocked off for the last time.

Your week starts... now. Right! as an avid follower of the Bigsy thread, it seemed perfectly plausible that Iain had the power to put us and ronnie (do no wrong) out all our respective miseries. But his week is now up and again Ron has escaped. This time from the clutches of the reaper. I have to say I am disappointed this hit would give me an important lead coming into the last quarter of my local deadpool. I await further prophecies/news with baited breath.

This poses the question, what would happen if Bin Laden was put onto the 2006 list and had in fact been dead for years. Surely you cannot claim that as a hit for the year? This could also lead to influential people starting to hide bodies to ensure higher DL success in subsequent years.

Just back from the parade in EC2. I'd like to report that Freddie Flintoff was looking peaky. Surely one to watch or maybe he had something to celebrate last night. Well done boys, I suppose that is the end of the cricket chat for this year.

Ok ok I was only trying to stay on the website topic, this could be the start of DL nominations from the world of cricket thread? correct vile, lots of W**nkers...........i mean bankers around here. Update from EC2 is umbrellas are shut and bowler hats are dry.

I'm a bit confused too. But hey you know how clever these aussies are Richie Benaud retiring will surely leading to a 2006 nomination.
