She looked like a plastic Barbie Doll in some of those photos. Glad someone else noticed it too. Do young people actually think it is attractive to look NON- human?

Without giving away much suffice to say if the lungs don’t get rejected right away, the success of a double lung transplant is limited to about 5 years before another set of windbags is needed.

Lard Bazaar 3,800 Posted January 1, 2018 Did anyone pick this lady http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-somerset-42398886 I thought about it but these type of picks aren’t really my thing (although I did benefit from Nicklinson a few years back) and I also wondered whether she’d get a QO as this was on the regional page.

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted January 3, 2018 So three days late, my DDP pick and Shameless type Larissa Podermanski launches a youtube 'how i'm doing' video, wherein she says her latest dr visit shows no progression in her tumours, but she is experiencing some internal 'discomfort' and the drs don't know what it is at this point. Her next checkup in 6-12 weeks. Looks like she's going to have to come through for me in the latter months of the year. I knew she saw the dr and having not heard anything I had figured the worst. Frankly, good for her on a more positive result. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RadGuy 1,614 Posted January 3, 2018 Cancer mum and mother of missing man Kyle Vaughan, Mary Lucas, died aged 55 on January 1st. Picked by DDT in 2016 and by a half dozen teams in 2017. So if she gets the obit (Mirror should pick up on the sob story) and presuming she was picked again this year, she will continue the streak of DDP hits on New Year's Day.

Joey Russ 7,229 Posted January 6, 2018 A man imprisoned in Dubai believes that he is not receiving medicine for prostate cancer. Maybe one of the FFBI that is more likely to be accepted in the Deathlist Cup... PS, Mary Lucas got the BBC obit, so if she was picked again, there would be another New Year's Day hit...

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted January 10, 2018 Cancel My Appointments (DDP) will have Dana Scatton as it's honourary team GM, and will continue to push forward on a very sensible DDP rule change that allows points for anyone who is 18 at death, and not needing to be 18 on Jan 1. The Malala Yousafzai rule. I fail to see why this isn't the rule to begin with. We will argue until Dana is blue in the face, or about 60 days. I have presented my case for a non-arbitrary rule, and hope those who oppose explain the arbitrary version the game is played under presently. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
