... but seeing I'm such a kind-hearted soul, I'll give people until Friday 11pm to name their replacements for Michael Douglas, also for Horwich to submit a 3rd name and for KP to submit 2 names!

Agreed. I'm not a doctor, but I reckon most people would agree its a terminal disease.

 

No, it isn't. Plenty people survive cancer after treatment and go on to die of something totally unrelated.

Life is terminal. Everybody dies at some point.

 

However, as more old people die than young folk, maybe the deadpool should be restricted to naming potential corpses who are under 60 on 1st Jan 2011.

Just read Zsa Zsa Gabor has had a leg amputated. Apparently got gangrene after a hip replacement last year.

 

Will this count in the event of a tie ?
