It does seem that he's more on the rails now than a few years ago, however it seems unlikely he's ever going to be getting a 100th birthday telegram from the Queen. On a similar note Shawn Rider really does look rough these days - if only he were to drop dead on a Monday we'd have the perfect headline Cheers DeathList Committee The first two posts in this thread are eye-opening and enlightening!!!!!!!! EXPOSED! Grim Reaper and I suspect a few others here ARE the DL Committee! HAH! And here I thought we were all divorced from some conglomerate of folks in a high-rise rubbing diabolical hands together who post a list on January 1. Well now, Mr. REAPER -- so when we make suggestions and they are ignored, I know who I can point to as a primary dumbass. SirC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then how come he's only being added now? He's always looked dreadful but presumably there's some reason the committee put him on the list for the first time this year when they've always held back beforehand? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
