Octopus of Odstock 2,203 Posted March 6, 2006 I missed this one out earlier this week. your link apopears to lead to the liberal democrat party site...are you saying Charles Kennedy has killed himself? I was about to delve into Windsor's subconcious & say that I think this was an ironic posting on the death of the Liberal Democrats but I need no longer go there.

Octopus of Odstock 2,203 Posted March 7, 2006 I kinda feel sorry for Iain. Ever since he has said he'll only post famous people's deaths (not just anybody on Wikipedia, which I think was the whole bone of contention), notable people have dropped left, right & centre today & its been someone else to report it each time.

Canadian Paul 97 Posted March 7, 2006 Wikipedia is claiming that legendary Rastafari elder Mortimer Planno has died at age 76 but, since I can't verify this independently, I'm not posting a link. One to check up on though. What's really creepy is that I was planning on posting him up on my "People I Was Surprised To Find Were Still Alive Thread." How come no one I ever actually get around to picking carks it? I haven't had a DDP hit since Lou Rawls or any hit whatsoever since Al Lewis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
