Guest Guest_Poetry Man_* Posted March 20, 2006 So farewell John and off you pop, You political wheeler dealer, You were very famous once, For boffing Chistine Keeler. But now at ninety-one years old, T'is time to say "Bon Soir" And fly up to the Angels, Because the other way is to far. So I will stop, and bit adieu, From him, and her, and me, to you.

Youth in Asia 1,087 Posted March 22, 2006 Ode to Profumo (continued) Your exploits have been recounted at length To great mirth and hilarity But you gave up the life of hookers and drugs To devote yourself to charity If Deathlist cannot find any details about you In any form of media Much as it pains me to say it, they could do worse Than look in Wikipedia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Youth in Asia 1,087 Posted March 22, 2006 ... Your wife forgave you over time, But confined you to the spare room. Oh, what a tragedy it was, The strange case of old Profumo. ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lady Die 63 Posted March 22, 2006 It's been just over a week now and poor old Profumo still has no write up on the front page. Has our esteemed leader gone AWOL? Maybe he's still celebrating his birthday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canadian Paul 97 Posted April 11, 2006 Profumo and Weinberger now have profiles on the front page, but at a terrible cost. I've been informed that TF has been having major problems logging in, perhaps he may never be able to post with out proxy again! Cthulhu! What have you done! Could we at least have a yellow exclamation triangle next to Caspar Weinberger's thread in TF's memory?

maryportfuncity 10,651 Posted April 11, 2006 Weinberger is hogging the front page so I thought I'd bring Profumo's little write up to wider attention here: Profumo keels over 10th March 2006 John Profumo, the subject of a major British political scandal in the 1963, has died at the age of 91 to give DeathList 2006 its third success. Profumo’s started an affair with good time girl Christine Keeler, only for it to be discovered that she was also close to a high-ranking Russian naval attaché. Profumo was forced to resign and the conservative government subsequently lost the next election, however the event did spawn a successful movie in 1989. Profumo was the number 23 selection on this year’s list in his first ever appearance. Cheers GR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Guest Posted September 13, 2006 Politician of some sort and according to his Wikipedia biography onThatchers 80th birthday celebration he attended but not on foot it was in a wheel chair since as they describe "His extreme old age" confined him too one. Looks promising. And I think I can get use - to seeing Margaret Thatcher's name hanging on spot 36... Lucky Bastard!

maryportfuncity 10,651 Posted September 14, 2006 Note it's a guest claiming Thatcher as a 'looker' in her younger days. Not sure any of the regulars could live with the shame and abuse if they were known to harbour such opinions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jaffer Posted February 10, 2007 Some of the press coverage treated us to recent pictures of Christine Keeler who lives 'quietly' in North London. She looks as rough as a stray dog's rear end. She's not exactly a near-future contender but she stress and depression were written all over her face. Siiting here in the USa, I am not privy to those newspapers. Would you know of a weblink to those pictures? Does she slook anything like in book promotion at http://www.dougiethompson.com/christine-keeler.htm ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
