Handrejka 1,840 Posted January 18, 2006 Already in the Ideas and possibilities thread. ( although I dont know why ) (I'll stick it in the near miss thread when its confirmed) That's depending on when he gets found... I bet there's some bloke in Wales with a betting slip, still waiting on Richey Edwards... That's why I mentioned Bobby Driscoll. His body wasn't identiied until a year after he died.

I always knew there had to be an explaination in there somewhere...........now if only you could have helped explain analytic geometry to me those many years ago.

Windsor 2,142 Posted January 23, 2006 The Emir of Kuwait, Sheikh Jaber al-Ahmad al-Sabah, dies "in his late 70s". According to BBC News his successor and son Sheikh Saad al-Abdullah al-Sabah is someone to keep an eye on. regards, Hein His successor has abdicated in favour of the Prime Minister. So I suppose there is little chance of an obit now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tempus Fugit 212 Posted January 23, 2006 I think you can be pretty sure he'll still get an obit, after all he will have been a former Emir, however briefly. I doubt he'd be famous enogh for DL though, as an abdicated Emir. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magere Hein 1,397 Posted January 23, 2006 I doubt he'd be famous enogh for DL though, as an abdicated Emir. Now there's a marginal case. By the "obit" criterion he'd pass, but whether he'd really pass the "famousnous test" is debatable. I'd hesitantly give him the nod. regards, Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brinsworth House Baiter 12 Posted January 25, 2006 Please disregard my above two posts- I had an e-mail alert about Chris Penn & the above two deaths were also on it. I have just looked back & seen that they died days ago. Apologies to all & I guess that's what yoiu get for using sub standard death alerts. I have learned my lesson & in future shall not be so hasty.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
