WonderingAboutDeath 2 Posted June 11, 2013 Sir Harold Wilson, the Labour politician who served as Prime Minister from 1964 to 1970 and 1974 to 1976 is 96. How many people think he'll live until 100? Can we get a health update because I haven't heard what he's doing in a while? He's had Alzheimers since the late 1980's so he can't be that well off.

Perfect Passing 277 Posted June 15, 2013 How's Maggie Thatcher getting on these days? I imagine her passing may not go unnoticed and then we can all have really good debate about how she dragged down/up our country! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted June 15, 2013 One to keep an eye on might be this big bloke called Goliath. I heard there's a possible fight brewing between him and this kid called David who's actually great with a slingshot. So I think there might be a bit of an upset on the cards. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Impends 7,976 Posted June 15, 2013 Abe Vigoda seems like he's worth a punt. The next-to-last-surviving witness to the death of Socrates died a few weeks back, maybe the notability of being the last one will finish poor Abe off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magere Hein 1,400 Posted June 15, 2013 I read in the paper that Pharaoh Ramesses II of Egypt isn´t feeling well. He may well live another few decades, but I think he´s well worth a punt. regards, Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Look at this stunning devil. There's been a lot of speculation about his private life for a long time. So up he pops again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
