Youth in Asia

Yes but she's being saying that for each of the last 7 years. Sounds like she's even worst at predicting death than Deathlist

As this thread could be in line for some serious action soon, including visits from respected journalists from the Sun, can I just add that I hope Jane Tomlinson dies of cancer. only joking, not really, i hope she gets run over by a bus, when she's 94, having successfully beaten cancer, completed many marathons, written many books on the subject and been elevated to the Order of the Garter.

It's really unfair when they appear to be half way through death's door, and then pause for about 2 years before completing the journey. How on earth can you make successful dead pool picks when that sort of behaviour is going on. Maybe he wrote the Pope's name on a piece of paper and was miraculously given a two year extension.

As Boney M said so perspicaciously: "It's a country that's changing ..."

IIRC, the turbo boost limit was reduced from 4 bar to 2.5 bar in 1988 (this means it had a pop off valve to limit the amount of pressurised air being forced into the engine), and turbos were outlawed in 1989 - thus bringing forth the amazing era of up to 39 cars trying to qualify for a Grand Prix. Those were the days... So what was the deal with the car that had six wheels for a season or two. An Elf, maybe? I'd love to know the thinking behind adding an extra 33% of contact area between car and road. Wasn't the six wheeler a Tyrell? I think it was a March - I remember having the Scalextric version which was also crap

Mohammed Guendouz is Algerian. Morocco weren't in the 1982 World Cup, Algeria were. And, yes, Guendouz is still alive. Bit rich to tell me to "get a life" when you remember Adam Ant lyrics from 25 years ago.... On your other point, Rostropovich's health really only detoriated this year, so once again, I really don't think the DL can be held responsible for missing his death. Next someone will be saying Alan Ball should've been on the DL... Thanks for the clarification - I hope Mohammed Guendouz has a long and fruitful life, and perhaps makes deathlist one day

Oh, it's one of my life-long interests - the football World Cup. I was fascinated as a small boy & am still fascinated by it now. About 10 years ago, I pondered on how many players were still alive from each tournament & have kept tabs ever since. The internet is then most useful for checking up on this type of thing. Hence I can come up with random shite like the above and:- * Only two players survive from the first World Cup in 1930 * There are more dead players from Costa Rica's 2002 squad (1) than Iran's 1978 or Holland's 1974 squad. * Despite all the upheavel & constant early deaths, NONE of Iraq's 1986 squad are dead. * 7 of North Korea's giant-killing 1966 squad are dead already (the worst total from 1966) * Just 4 - yes 4(!!) of the USSR's 1962 squad are still alive. * 13 members of the UAE's 1990 squad had a name Mubarak somewhere in their name. All are still alive. * To keep it DL-based, only 2 of Uruguay's 1950 winning squad remain. Now I know how the "I need to get a life" title is earned ... I remember a Moroccan player from the 1982 world cup called Guendouz. The reason is that there was an Adam Ant song at the time with the line "subtle innuendos follow" and I always thought it was "suddenly Guendouz follows". I spent years wondering why Adam Ant would be referring to the Morrocan team in his lyrics, and what it was that he was following (it must be something inside). I wonder if he's still going (Guendouz, I mean).

This is getting ridiculous. Another huge miss. Also - he should have his own thread as he is more famous than at least 40 of the 2007 candidates (that includes you, Ruby Mohammed).

I think he was always a better bet than Ruby Mohammed

obesity + diabetes + dodgy climate + losing against ireland at cricket =

And Bobby Murcer is Brian Kidd's second cousin.

The man with the tomato on his head shall rule the world.

There are people who claim that Mrs Thatcher is single-handedly responsible for the current state of decline in the UK, an equally silly position. No single person has such power, you need a nation for that. regards, Hein But a strong leader can change the entire direction of a country (for both good and bad). Let's say for the sake of argument Gandhi and Thatcher (mainly good), Hitler and Stalin (bad). Whether smashing the unions was good or bad can be argued, but the fact that it was her force of personality that did it is not a particularly controversial point of view.

Dickhead. no i dont think you can catch it that way more like dick - anus (pronounced in borat way)

Yep and it still warrants capital punishment. Witches - burn them Communists - destroy their lives People who download 7 naked pictures of 13-15 year olds from the internet - kill them (preferably slowly) I wonder which lucky group of people is next ... taxi drivers - hack off their genitals liberal democrats - remove their hair tabloid journalists - stamp on their toes then roast them on a spit

She must be pissed off she's no longer the most hated woman in the country. She'll need to start making racist comments to get more attention.

brilliant!!

From today's Daily Mirror: 17 January 2007 EXCLUSIVE: DEATH WISH Critically ill Michael Winner tells docs: I’d rather die than have my leg cut off By STEPHEN MOYES MICHAEL Winner has told doctors who want to amputate his diseased leg in a bid to save his life: “I would rather die than have it cut off.” The film director was warned that removing the limb could be his only hope of survival after he suddenly fell ill while on a Caribbean holiday. Eccentric Winner, 71, was last night “very, very, very sick” in intensive care at the private London Hospital in Harley Street. His friends and family were at his bedside as he battled the mystery illness. Winner’s PA Rose Bryan confirmed his life is in danger. She said: “He is not very well. Very ill in fact.” Winner, who directed the Death Wish trilogy starring Charles Bronson, initially told family and friends his condition was caused by a reaction to antibiotics given for a fever he developed in Barbados. But it is understood he is suffering the effects of a long-term sickness. Winner said at the time: “Unfortunately, I had an absolutely dreadful reaction to the antibiotic and I came out in enormous blood blisters on my left leg. “They covered the entire inside of it and each was five inches long. “Then they all burst and I was rushed to hospital, sirens blaring.” Winner, who had a triple heart bypass 12 years ago, had agreed to pay for an air ambulance to fly him back to the UK. His condition improved and he flew home on a commercial jet. But as soon as he arrived back, he took a turn for the worse. During his stay at the Bayview hospital in Barbados, food critic Winner arranged for the chef at his resort to prepare special meals for him and send them over by taxi. He said of the hospital: “It’s horrible here. They’re doing their best, but the food is disgusting.” Winner was comforted by long-term girlfriend, Geraldine Lynton-Edwards during the couple’s ruined £90,000 holiday.

I've been with you on most of your posts but this is just plain ridiculous. Do you have hallucinations or something?

Considering she single-handedly rescued the country from terminal decline, describing her as evil is rather inappropriate, unless you are one of those people who enjoyed going on strike all the time.

Dear Tammy is the true picture of what a Christian should be. She has loved those that the majority of Christians say are unworthy. She is made fun of because of her love for the makeup, and yep she does wear alot. But man, check out the beautiful heart on this woman. We can all learn from Ms. Tammy. Her son walks in shoes that are footprints made by her. I once too made fun of this woman, and have had to eat some crow, as she has truly showed me what love is about. Rock on, Tammy, and may God welcome you with a great homecoming. Baby, you deserve it. I'll miss you, and I am so proud to have ever had the chance to know you. You make me have hope.... Love ya, Deb So she wasn't the one that told her "flock" that God wanted them to contribute to her new swimming pool ...

Right in one. Nuns' bums in The Devils I recall. Then there was Glenda Jackson baring her scrawny frame in Sons and Lovers, not to mention the "duelling cocks" scene between Oliver Reed and Alan Bates. I do sometimes despair of this forum. In what way is Ken Russel a "pervy" film driector. Unless there is something "pervy" in his private life that I am unaware of. There certainly isn't anything "pervy" in any of his films, unless you count nudity and sex perverted in themselves. You have to remember that in anglo-saxon culture these days, anything involving nudity or sex is by definition perverted, paedofile or usually both. Also it was interesting to follow the logic of the Daily Mail article arguing that having Page 3 was a direct cause of the Ipswich murders. The rest of the world seems to have a different opinion about sex, I wonder why.

I assume she smokes Silk Cut. Isn't that the Bishop of York?

I think a couple of the names on this year's list are completely made up, this being one of them.
