    So a ball kicked the ball..
  8. An update: Laura Barry who is a huge hit for DI, Charlotte Rae, Aretha Franklin, Vajpayee for some teams places 20-30 I have in my list, Jarrod Lyle - wow, picked by "People I think might die in 2018 united", Mary Carlisle, Oliver Dragojevic (B-Teams), Lietzke, Paul Madeley... Wow, actually quite a few hits... I also reduced the obitability of Shalom Ouanounou and Lindy Remigino to 25% (from 50% and 60%). The Taquisha McKitty case is still going on, but it was a bit disappointing that the well-timed death of Jahi McMath didn't result in some encompassing "How do we define death" - article. Lindy Remigino has no ongoing story, but I just can't quite accept that the fastest man of the world, at one point, doesn'T yet get an obit, maybe even at the end of the year. 1. Bucket of Blood 166,66 +1 2. Day in the Death 166,14 -1 3. Thomas Jefferson Survives 163,55 +6 4. Deceased Hose 158,94 --- 5. Dead Ends 156,93 --- 6. The Love Boat 155,86 -3 7. Drollercoaster 154,7 -1 8. Still Life 152,83 -1 9. Dead Wait 152,64 +2 10. Ethnic Cleansing 151,73 -2 11. To Kill a Gabor Sister 151,38 -1 12. Wormer, he's a dead man! etc... 147,94 --- 13. Poochie Died on the Way back to his Home Planet 147,5 --- 14. Pan Breed 147,3 +1 15. Heading Nowhere 147,09 +1 16. The Living End 145,33 -2 17. GUN I 145,19 --- 18. GUN II 145,1 --- 19. The Blight House 144,74 --- 20. Shaun of the Dead 69 141,8 --- (....) 20 Hits no Problem 118,38 New record position for DI whose bad luck at the beginning of the year has been compensated with several positive developments. Bucket of Blood is now the new leader because of Charlotte Rae. I have seen people declaring Ethin Cleansing a favourite, but as the year is soon 2/3rds over and Leah Bracknell is still alive, it's not happening here.

    So he has survived two of his successors now...

    It does sound a little like the 5th stage of grief.

    I would guess she never was a drug user. She was always very calculating.

    Read Any Good Books Lately?

    I have now finished the sequel "The Dark Forest". It is quite unlikely anything I've ever read. A totally different book from the first part which was very character-based, with boundless creativity. First, the people behave more like ciphers for philosophical concepts, and the creativity leads to weird, boring places like a scientist being challenged by his girlfriend author to write a book on his own with his dream girlfriend and then the girlfriend becomes a hallucination that feels real (and then the tough detective from the first book finds a woman exactly like that hallucination for that scientist). But then, the narrative slowly pulls you in with aa couple of reveals, and the story turns dark, and then darker, and then darker. You literally lose faith in humanity. And then... Also, Philip K. Dick's Ubik, which begins as if the author was on something really good (probably true), and then becomes quite a lively story. Need to read more from him.

    The Generation Game

    "Careful what you wish for" edition nr. 56: Joey and DeathImpends currently both have 26 hits among their original 60 people. They both added people, like John McCain, Liu Xiaobo, you know sure hits. But since Lindy Remigino hasn't obited Joey might need to replace him with two new people.

    Inverse Dead Pool 2018

    It will be an exciting finish. In my opinion, the biggest weakness of theoldlady's really good team is Simon Ricketts, and machotrouts has John McCain. But they are both placed very low in their teams.

    Madonna

    Perpetually torn between: and I hope to be able to promote Udo Kier to DeathList status at one point.

    Who knew it would be in this order. As if David Bowie had died before Bing Crosby.
