Ideas and Possibilities for 2006

[Guest J. Westerhaus]

catherine-zita jones (not sure on spelling) shouldn't be on deathlist.

Catherine Zeta-Jone shouldn't be on Deathlist, but her husband probably should!

[Guest Diagnosis Death]

I would like to suggest that Bernard Manning is included for '06.

 

He's recently retired from running his club due to ill health,a likely candidate for a coronary or stroke due to his lifestyle.

[Banshees Scream 110]

Nazi WW2 figure Hugo Bleicher is still alive being 106.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugo_Bleicher

 

I know he has been talked about once or twice

before but i thought he is probobly one of the

last known nazi figures from WW2 so i figure

maybe he has a chance next year though i

doubt it since his death might no be widely

reported.

 

And i'm not sure if there is an age limit

with the DL. If he's alive next year he would

be turning 107.

David Lange; NZ PM 1984-89 (if he lasts that long, that is)

 

He must be hopping mad by now.

 

It never rains, it pours

And i'd have a punt on Mel Brooks as well.

 

Now that his wife is dead,old Mel might lose the will to go on.

That might be a good idea for DL 2006. He is in bad health and suffering from depression at the death of his mother. Also, a friend of mine went to the Embassy club recemtly and found that Bernard could not remember the punchlines to a few of his own jokes (and before any PC twats make schinde comments they are jokes),

Serious possibility for 2006?????

[BrunoBrimley 86]

. He is in bad health and suffering from depression at the death of his mother.

That was the last thing I had. Heck I went out and celebrated when she finally kicked off.

[Guest Diagnosis Death]

You celebrated when Manning's mummy died??????

[Lady Die 63]

Catherine Zeta-Jone shouldn't be on Deathlist, but her husband probably should!

How about Kirk Douglas?

A fair pick.

 

But i heard he had a major recovery from

his recent stroke. That's probobly why he

was left off this years list.

Just watching the cricket, and came across this snippet about Kerry Packer (courtesy of Wikipedia: Full entry):

 

"Partly because of his apparent hard drinking and smoking, Packer's health has long been a problem. He has reportedly suffered eight heart attacks, and in 1990 he suffered a massive attack while playing polo in Sydney, and was clinically dead for six minutes before he could be revived. After recovering, Packer donated a large sum to the NSW Ambulance Service to pay for equipping all NSW ambulances with a portable defibrillator. He has also suffered from a chronic kidney condition for many years, and in 2000 he made headlines when his long-serving helicopter pilot, Nick Ross, donated one of his own kidneys to Packer for transplantation."

 

Can't find him using the search facility (no surprise there!). Has he been mentioned as a possibility before?

[Rotten Ali 600]

Can't find him suing the search facility (no surprise there!). Has he been mentioned as a possibility before?

 

Only one entrant (Grizly) of about 142 from the Derby Dead Pool picked KP.

 

Packer, Kerry

Born 17 December 1937 (Sydney, New South Wales, Australia)

Billionaire media mogul, whose empire was originally built on "Women's Weekly" magazine. In 1977 he enraged the "sporting establishment" with his breakaway World Series Cricket. He spent nine months in an iron lung at the age of six, as a result of catching polio, and spent six (or seven, depending who you believe) minutes clinically dead in 1990 following a heart attack (or stroke, depending who you believe). A compulsive gambler who surfaces in a news story every couple of years either winning, losing or betting some record amount in richly anecdotal circumstances.

 

15 people (of about 44,000) picked KP on rotten.com's deadpool.

 

Kerry Packer

AKA Kerry Francis Bullmore Packer

Born: 17-Dec-1937

Birthplace: Sydney, New South Wales, Australia

Gender: Male

Religion: Atheist

Ethnicity: White

Sexual orientation: Straight

Occupation: Business

Level of fame: Somewhat

Executive summary: Richest man in Australia

Father: Douglas Frank Hewson Packer

Brother: Clyde

Son: James D. Packer (Scientologist)

Risk Factors: Kidney Transplant

 

Just put these details into my spreadsheet and he returns the following numbers:

47/55/66 when the start point listings require numbers above 84/79/74 so unless Mr Packer becomes more seriously ill (ie needs 24 hour care) then he not a very good choice.

Probably has been, but unfortunately, the bugger's probably heathier now than he has been for years.

I don't think he's ready to go just yet, but then again, a dodgy ticker could go at any moment.

He wouldn't make it into my list for 2006.

[in eternum+ 22]

Now, I know I'm a bit new at this business (though am proud to note that I have achieved the status of 'Hatchetman' - good times!) but I'm convinced that the 2006 list would be improved by the inclusion of one of the great TV detectives from the 70s and/or 80s.

 

I've already suggested Dick van Dyke, who I reckon is a good candidate. I'm not sure that Angela Lansbury is a suitable candidate as she's definitely still in her prime.

 

So what about Andy Griffiths?

 

Any other suggestions?
