George Michael
 
He has not yet passed away, but this article creates the impression that his early demise may sadly be inevitable. So-called pneumonia seems to kill more people than ever these days. He will be a great loss.:(

Maybe he's got something a little more serious and incurable than pneumonia, from all that time spent hanging around in toilets.......

I hate to tell you, but there have been rumours around for a while.

Just because he's a bender doesn't mean he's going to die you know?

Any of you old bods remember Kenny Everett and Freddie Mercury?
Pneumonia was instrumental in their early departure.

Pneumonia is a common form of death for people with AIDs. I imagine that's what Meow was referring to when she mentioned rumours.

Not that much difference between your reference to George Michaels sexuality and Deadvims comment about Gary Speed choking like the Welsh football team there really. I'm not offended by either mind, just wondererd where people should draw the line since you got offended because you're a fan of the footballing legend. Maybe you could edit your post to a more non offensive term for that musical legend to something like homosexual, gay or raging poofter.

Spot on. People on this forum tend to be very selective when it comes to humour.

To me, I see it as a way of dealing with things, some people on here need to take a look at themselves.

I'm not an expert, so what is the ratio of people without AIDS dying of pneumonia as to those with AIDS dying of pneumonia ?

What the fu ck does this all have to do with anyone's sexuality? Talent is what matters!
