[dmlaw]

Very early lead for @...and a partridge Indie pear tree with the death of Gianluca Vialli.

Go on. Act surprised.

 

[octophone]

I swear Indie just keeps a list of who's not well and adjusts accordingly.

 

[octophone]

Also, note Indie's list is in alphabetical order by first name - a sure sign of being pulled from an Excel spreadsheet.

I make every list in excel. There is no other way to store digital information.

 

[dmlaw]

I swear Indie just keeps a list of who's not well and adjusts accordingly.

He has a Google News alert set up for the phrase 'terminal cancer'.

 

[octophone]

Can we edit as long as we're not putting in people who are already dead? I forgot someone.

 

[Madíson]

Not if there has been new bad news about them.

 

[floppet]

Just do it. Who'd know?

: An IMMINENT DEATH LIST PAY OUT for six of us



(Although this was posted a week ago. Don't take the piss, Jimmy.)

 

[GinAg (39)]

What a barren year.

 

[Indie]

It really is. Time to start working some voodoo shit.

 

[Saltwater]

Oh I've lost one of my centarians, RIP.

 

[Indie]

I'm having a MARE. Harry Belafonte was on my list for about the last five years. I assume i took him off because he made top 10 of deathlist.

 

[GinAg (39)]

FINALLY

 

[Art Decade]

My most "it's possible" choice based on nothing but vibes is the one that happens.

 

[Indie]

Always quite satisfying to get one that nobody else does. Bye, George.

Of people who've kept a running tally, looks like @octophone is in the lead

 

[Finn]

Jimmy Carter is REALLY GETTING ON MY TITS NOW. It's been 5 months since his family put out that statement about him being on the verge of pegging it.

Did he then start watching a really good box set or something

I'd have been happy with just Tebbit, who is still hanging on the selfish bastard.

Good that Rolf's away tho'.

He won't go until "Be A Fighter" comes out.

 

[GinAg (39)]

FINALLY up to 3. Been a weak year for me.

 

[Finn]

And Mohammed Al-Fayed means that Finn ROMPS INTO THE LEAD (joint with @octophone, we romp together FOR NOW)

 

[Finn]

As an aside, I'm v sad that none of us had Tom Jones and tried to claim this as a win a few weeks ago

Tom Jones Dies: ‘The Fantasticks’ Book Writer & Lyricist Was 95

Tom Jones, who wrote the book and lyrics for the musical “The Fantasticks,” a show that ran for 42 years, died on Friday at his home in Sharon, Conn. He was 95 and passed from cancer, his son said.…

Picked the wrong Carter.
