As we all seem to be in a somber/despairing mood of late, i thought i'd cheer everyone up by introducing you all to a prediction game that I have until now restricted to between work colleagues and myself. It's a great and uplifting tradition that instills a sense of high morale.
Basically name ten people (have to be famous so can't be users on here or a granny that your dying to push down the stairs) that you believe will perish in the year 2013.....i'd love to say points mean prizes but that's a lie....but ten points for a death and we can clock up our macabre total in 12 months time....and the one with the most points can rightly call themselves a messenger of doom.
Oh you are able to predict people that other users have.......if that person croaks 10 points all round!. You don't have to justify your selections either but feel free to if you like.
My ten to feel the touch of the reaper are:
Geoff Hurst
Former German Chancellor Helmut Kohl (his wife killed herself ten years ago because she had a hyper photo sensitivity condition....like light brought her out in a rash...and blinding pain i think)
Mohammed Ali
Doris Day
Nancy Reagan
Prince Phillip
Bashar Al-Assad (clearly going to go the same way as Qaddafi)
Fidel Castro
Kirk Douglas (the guy is 96 after all)
Leonard Cohen
