Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted January 16, 2014 Okay..... I wasn't necessarily saying you were. I was just saying, I don't want to share too many tactics with a fellow competitor that's all. I would have thought it would be a fairly understandable and respectable pick considering one of the other Top Gear crew nearly got killed a few years ago.

Ah right of course the Danger element involved in his job. You only needed to say that in the first place. Fair enough. Hope it comes in for you...honestly I do.

Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted January 16, 2014 I'm pretty ambivalent on the guy. Sometimes he is funny, often he is not. A lot like the show itself. I can't see why anyone would find it worthwhile to physically attack him for his opinions when there are far worse and more serious arseholes out there. I suppose you can keep dreaming though.

themaninblack 2,112 Posted January 16, 2014 Duccini, Johnson & Madden all require obits so keep them peeled... EDIT: Nae bother as the Daily Mail's ruthless pursuit of the American dollar ensures obits for all three!

PERHAPS (?) she died on when it was January 16th here? (not sure about this one and need guidance ) Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

themaninblack 2,112 Posted January 17, 2014 Well India is ahead of us, so it's more likely to be a death on the 17th than the 16th. Times of India says Friday morning, so that makes it the 17th... Still, 5 hits in one day is quite something! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

angryGreatness 96 Posted January 18, 2014 Trickier obit chances I reckon... Does this count? Not so much a report on his death, but a report that mentioned that he has died counts under DDP rules IIRC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
themaninblack 2,112 Posted January 18, 2014 Yes it counts. An odd way to get an obit but there you have it. 22 hits in 17 days. Good chance that the monthly record of 25 hits will be broken... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
