Crazy Phyllis croaks

"Phyllis Diller, the frumpy comedienne whose jokes lampooning domestic life with her fictitious husband "Fang" laid the groundwork for a generation of female comedians, has died. She was 95.

RIP her. Nobody had her.

TONY NICKLINSON

(not a celebrity - but perhaps he should be)

RIP

by Growler Fri 24 Aug 2012, 00:28

Aye, it was hard not to feel desparately sorry for this poor man and his family.

I can very well understand his heartbreak at the court decision ...... 20 odd years ago I watched my father in law waste away with MND, his useless body in agony whilst he was compos mentis.

That said, as harsh as it seemed to the Nicklinson family, and others in similar situations, I think that the court decision was absolutely correct.

RIP him.

US media's reporting that Neil Armstrong has passed away.

by skully Sun 26 Aug 2012, 00:21

One small step into immortality. RIP.

by Allan D Sun 26 Aug 2012, 06:11

Indeed. Big aye-aye

to him.

If I were really facetious I would say something along the lines of with Lance having his 7 jerseys taken off him and Alun quitting New Tricks because the scripts are dull it's been a bad week for people called Armstrong but I won't.

Nobody of note died overnight, but can't have this worthy thread sliding down to page 3. Shocked
