Missing In Action

Going to say no under Rule 4.  "No one missing in action who blatantly died already."

I should hope it's no, but don't need surprises.  Thanks for clarifying

Karl-Erivan Haub, the head of German retail group Tengelmann, has been missing since April 7, when he failed to return from a skiing trip.

Presumed dead.  Not that we here at DL needed confirmation of the presumption we made the second we saw the story.

Scott Hutchison, frontman of Scottish indie types Frightened Rabbit, hasn't returned to the warren. Couple of ominous tweets from him recently as well:

 

 

 

Hmmmm his brothers fb says South Queensferry.

Which makes the lyrics to their 'Floating in the Forth' more of a clue.

 



[Verse 1]
So you just stepped out
Of the front of my house
And I'll never see you again
I closed my eyes for a second
And when they opened
You weren't there
And the door shut shut
I was vacuum packed
Shrink-wrapped out of air
And the spine collapsed
And the eyes rolled back
To stare at my starving brain

[Chorus]
And fully clothed, I float away
(I'll float away)
Down the Forth, into the sea
I think I'll save suicide for another day

[Verse 2]
And I picture this corpse
On the M8, hearse
And I have found a way to sleep
On a rolled up coat
Against the window
With the strobe of the sun
And the life I've led
Am I ready to leap
Is there peace beneath
The roar of the Forth Road Bridge?
On the northern side
There's a Fife of mine
And a boat in the port for me

[Chorus]
Fully clothed, I'll float away
(I'll float away)
Down the Forth, into the sea
I'll steer myself
Through chopping waves
As manic gulls
Scream "it's okay"
Take your life
Give it a shake
Gather up
All your loose change
I think I'll save suicide for another year

 

 

Looks like its this year then.

And suddenly, these lyrics just come to more sense:

My hole, I'll get my hole, I'll get my hole
Get my hole, get my hole and I'll find out more
It's a choo choo train, a rocket launch
If we have a hormone race
I'm bound to finish first
Can you see in the dark?
Can you see the look on your face?
The flashing white light's been turned off
You don't know who's in your bed
It takes more than fucking someone
You don't know to keep warm
Did you really think that a fuck at half speed
You'll find your love in a hole?
Oh, you won't find love in a
Won't find love in a hole
It takes more than fucking someone
To keep yourself warm
I'm drunk, I'm drunk
And you're probably on pills
If we've both got the same diseases
It's irrelevant, girl
And the room fills with steam
Oh, evaporates, disappears
My point of entry is the same way
That I leave
Can you see in the dark?
Can you see the look on your face?
The flashing white light's been turned off
You don't know who's in your bed
It takes more than fucking someone
You don't know to keep warm
Did you really think that a fuck at half speed
You'll find your love in a hole?
But, you won't find love in a
Won't find love in a hole
It takes more than fucking someone
To keep yourself warm
You won't find love in a
Won't find love in a hole
It takes more than fucking someone
To keep yourself
See in the dark
Can you see the look in your face?
The flashing white light's been turned off
You don't know who's in your bed
It takes more than fucking someone
You don't know to keep warm
Did you really think that a fuck at half speed
You'll find your love in a hole?

R.I.P Scott, I'll be listening to your music today.

Too bad it wasn't Frightened Rabbit's body.....of work.

Some piss poor indie shite there.  No offense FixedBusiness.  Or whoever. 
Ah fahk, we know each other enough, you know I don't care if I offended anyone.  How about 'sorry for your loss', that I truly mean from the heart.

I think Hutchison bolted to the States to be with his lover, got bumped and ended up in Dennistoun .

 

The unhinging right there IMO.

 

Dennistoun.

Never heard of this guy so have no opinion other than it’s sad he felt the need to commit suicide but what fucks me off is that before he went missing he’d get maybe three or four replies to any tweets he posted.  Since he went missing and subsequently topped himself, hundreds of people suddenly replying to his last tweets.  Maybe if they’d all cared so much when he was fucking alive he might still be alive.  Fucking coffin chasing cunts.

Reading - and loving - Albion Dreaming by Andy Roberts; a popular history of LSD use in Britain. Page 240 considers the post-prison lives of the main manufacturers of the LSD that prompted the massive police operation known as Operation Julie.

 

At least two of these are likely obitable. Chemist Richard Kemp's whereabouts are a matter of mystery with sightings as far away as Goa in India. His partner Christine Bott appears to be living in Ireland: http://babylonwales.blogspot.com/2012/04/christine-bott-lsd-scapegoat.html

BBC News just reporting the CPS has got a file linking convicted child killer Robert Black with the long-lost Genette Tate - newspaper delivery girl last seen in 1978. No link from the site, yet.

Genette Tate's father makes appeal from his "deathbed". https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/missing-genette-tate-father-teen-13097072

 

Think we were here back in 2008, but hey, here we are again....

Daniel Küblböck, once placed 3rd in Germany's version of "American Idol" and then a very out-there media star, think D-list appearances here and there, gone missing on a cruise ship, possibly jumped overboard?

Eternal internet fame because he had the main role in a frequent entry on any "worst movie ever" list:

Very tragic, if it proved true. In his media appearances he was recently very sympathetic. Besides, he made a lot of money with renewable energy, so he was not stupid either.

I don't know... these investments probably didn't pay off. In the long run. It's true, he became more serious about 2 years after he appeared first, but there was always something off, like when he let himself get adopted by that old millionaire woman. He also never gave up show business. Some people just can't let go of it, so they appear in these cheap reality shows.

True in terms of this adaption thing etc., but he went from Pop to Jazz and from chessy showbiz to real business. Not bad for a figure like he was known in the German media.
