Well, this isn't as exciting as I thought it was going to be. I can see why horse-racing is a more popular choice for gamblers than waiting for celebrities to shuffle off.

Shall we sing a song while we're waiting?

You have to give it time. Most of the croakers-to-be are either octogenarians or drug crazed kids. They'll started dropping like flies soon.

Also, I reject the short-termist attitude reflected in your haste to taste blood. This thread will run for months (or it won't).

I'd never heard of him either, but please, a bit of decorum. You're perfectly entitled to crow over your own victims, but a little respect for the departed in general.

After all they may be in someone else's game.
