Perfect Passing

Or assuming that Queen Elizabeth does not follow the Popes career path and decide to jack-it-all-in for a life of retirement & let Charlie have a go for little while, blimey he's waited long enough!

The 8th day of May sees me chalk up another mark. Along with the deaths of: - 1982 – Gilles Villeneuve, Canadian race car driver (b. 1950) 1985 – Karl Marx, German composer (b. 1897) 1994 – George Peppard, American actor (b. 1928) 1999 – Dirk Bogarde, English actor (b. 1921) & prior to my being: - 1947 – Harry Gordon Selfridge, American businessman, founded Selfridges (b. 1858)

Highly recommend Blazing Saddles, a classic. Director Mel Brooks must be close to meeting the big director above @ 86 years old? I took the bread knife to see Les Miserables at the weekend, quite enjoyable, lots of singing and many death scenes. The misses enjoyed it more than I did as she has a lot more empathy than I do, but what more would you expect from a curious death lister?

And that's why we love deathlist/DDP so bloomin much! It makes you want to punch the air one week, then galls you the next. Keep your pecker up RA, there loads more to go at!

We can read Wikipedia you know... Actually, I enjoyed the Guest's Victorian countdown... What odds would one receive on the chances of the last verified Victorian also been the last person still alive from the 19th century? 13 were born before 31/12/1899 & 14 were born before Queen Vic's death on 22/01/1901, all in with a chance of course.

I don't buy oscar's version of events that he shot her and thought she was an intruder, to me that story just doesn't have legs. If he is indeed guilty, the South African Police will no doubt be dragging him to prison!

A Romanian arrives in London as a new immigrant to the United Kingdom. He stops the first person he sees walking down the street and says, "Thank you Mr. Englishman, for letting me come into this country, giving me housing, Income Support, free medical care, and a free education!" The passerby says, "You are mistaken, I am Egyptian." The man goes on and encounters another passerby. "Thank you for having such a beautiful country here in England." The person says, "I not English, I am a Pakistani." The new arrival walks farther, and the next person he sees he stops, shakes his hand, and says, "Thank you for wonderful country England!" That person puts up his hand and says, "I am from Afghanistan. I am not British." He finally sees a nice lady and asks, "Are you an Englishwoman?" She says, "No, I am from Africa." Puzzled, he asks her, "Where are all the English?" The African lady checks her watch and says, "Probably at work."!!!

Forget biopic I am thinking event theatre. You have the basic play about the disappearance of LL and then right at the end an old bloke in the audience with a bushy moustache stands up and says "Absolute Rubbish, what really happened was..." at which point the theatre doors crash open and the old bloke is dragged roughly away by half a dozen police officers, the lights come up and the cast shuffle off the stage. Cameron MacKintosh can contact me anytime. I was thinking that all the multi award winning films are the really deep ones that provoke people to concentrate on what they are watching. The biopic could tell the 'Lucky Lucan' story from all different kinds of angles, the nannies story, the wife's, the kids, lucky's himself and the established friends that even obviously felt obliged to assist him. If the people that made the TV series 'Lost' got involved the film could jump back & fourth in time and really get people thinking, did he/did'nt he do it, and could finish with conclusion. Or the full story could be told through the journey of his wrist watch! Anyways, forget Mackintosh, we need Spielberg or Ridley Scott for this epic. We just need a really good attention grabbing title!

Just been to the doctors and he says that I've got to start watching what I eat! So I've booked tickets for this year Aintree Grand National!!

Freddie Mercury, of course. Or one of the blokes off the 118 advert. Da man that is Sacha Baron Cohen has just finished filming a biopic of Freddie Mercury and apparently he is rather good. Maybe he should be booked for back to back gigs & given The Lord Lucan role, I think he would do the sinister side of Lucan really well.

ATOS have have assessed Richard III as fit for work. Yeah, I think he had a 'hunch' about that!

Seeing as I only just flipping cast my vote for the 3rd Death of 2013, I am getting in early with the same choice I had one hour ago. Mr Peter Sallis, please.

http://www.sfgate.co...p#ixzz2JxUpn2XA Isn't there a Dead of 1485 thread somewhere? I've been looking for the 1485 death thread for hours now, the DL search option is as dodgy as King Richard's spine.

King Richard III confirmed today as dead, body found after 527 years.

Andrex now want to know if you "scrunch" or "fold". What the fuck is wrong with them? Does it matter? Why not just ask "How do you wipe the shit from your arse?" Do they REALLY think that a Scrunch or Fold choice puts wiping arseholes into the same ball park as tucking napkins into your fuggin top to stop you spilling soup down your best shirt? Wankers! That's another thing that boils my piss - the man of the house INSISTS that we buy Andrex toilet paper, which costs twice as much as Tesco's - he says it's softer on his pert cheeks, I say YOU'RE WIPING YOUR FUCKING ARSE ON IT, DOES IT REALLY MATTER? Scrunch, for the record. Folding has more potential for finger-penetration. I fold, I does, covers a greater area with each arm action.

I've voted for our plate smashing, financially challenged European comrades, who preside in Greece. Being skint all the time is no fun, one of them will snap and stick a few caps in a few arses, me reckons.

Gone for Peter Sallis, no rhyme nor reason what's so ever!

Bradford City AFC have done it! The League Cup Finalists from the lowest division in Englsh football, the first to get to a major final at Wembley from the fourth tier of the league! The last time Bradford were holders of a major cup, the Titanic sank with the loss of 1,517 lives in the North Atlantic, how's about that then for a tedious link between football & death?

Having being wrong on every vote thus far......... I'm going for Rev. Paisley, all that who-ha about the union flag not flying above Belfast city hall must be having some kind of effect....surely?

Good Luck to 'The Mighty Bantams' AKA Bradford City AFC who take on 'The Villa' tonight in the second leg of the Capital One League Cup, Semi-Final!! 3 - 1 up from the first leg and a place @ Wembley beckons!! How did we get this far? Tha's not got a clue lad!!

The post of the year for 2013! Absolute Quality with a capital 'q'

What about the pitch markings in the 90's? Robbie Fowler better watch out, he used to sniff the stuff, or was that coke?

You don't fancy having your ashes fired off into space then? Oh Bollocks!! I now realise that I wanted my ashes to be the first to be rocketed right out of the Solar System and to travel along with the stars, but that Clyde Tombaugh (February 4, 1906–January 17, 1997, American astronomer and discoverer of Pluto in 1930) has beat me too it, the flash git!

Did you greet Michael Jackson's tour announcement in the same manner? Not really Bibliogryphon, I, like the The Death List Committee never had the kiddy fiddling moonwalking Jackson 5 member down for a drug overdose weeks before a big payday, but he did and the world got the award winning film "This Is It" to remind us all that he did rehearse really hard but not able to put on his last performance, a real shame that! As for Meat Loaf, he could go at any time me thinks (heart issues), which begs the question, can lightening strike twice? International recording artist drops dead weeks before last tour dates and not on that years Death List?

Not quite the Marcus Harvey 1995 Myra Hindley painting made from a child's hand prints, but a rather good morph all the same. The Moors Murderer & Dunn on one imagine, who'd of thought it a few months back?
