Ulitzer95 12,576 Posted April 26, 2009 Polish artist Eugeniusz Waniek has died at the age of 103. The centenarians seems to be dropping fast this month... Levi-Strauss and Niemeyer are hanging on in there though... perhaps having their names on DL gives them something to live for... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Levi-Strauss and Niemeyer are hanging on in there though... perhaps having their names on DL gives them something to live for... Levi-Strauss will live forever, you know.

Instead of admitting your mistake, you should have a month-long hissy fit about having it pointed out to you. That's the mature thing to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boleyn 1 Posted April 27, 2009 Former WBA heavyweight champion Greg Page has died at the age of 50 DDP points for Rotten Ali and his scientific deadpooling system, then. I'm horrified. I chose Greg Page the yellow "Wiggle" from the childrens TV show, but my team name was put under the boxer. I emailed OoO and pointed out the mistake and he changed my pick for me. Boxer dies, Wiggle turns out to not even be sick anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,576 Posted April 27, 2009 Dancer and choreographer Frankie Manning has died of pneumonia at the age of 94... I was going to put him on my DDP team as well but I had fears as to whether he'd get an brit obit or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the praise guys, but I'm really having a very thin year so far. You're having a thin year?! Yes, I really think I am having a thin year - my aim is at least 15 out 50 by the end of the year, so by rights I should have had 5 hits already. Can't think why Dai, Jade & Tony Hart were not on my list when I put up at the front of the year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
