RIP Don LaFontaine

'Ol Putty nose is dead!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Malden

Used him a lot as a visual tag line on my Amex ads:-

"Don't leave home without them!"

Looks like Karl left his on the bedside table for the last time after a good run.

What's with you humans and your constant need to organize things. Threads are threads. One person isn't important enough to have his or her own thread? What the hell is a thread? We're talking about minute data on a hard drive for a separate thread, not stacks and stacks of actual paper like the junkmail that comes to our home addresses. I'm sick of seeing the same threads on the front page all day long. I want to see a stream of a hundred threads throughout the day. This place gets boring with the lack of action. The hell with your idea.

oh, by the way...... Rest in Peace DAVID CARRADINE. You almost deserved your own thread.

...this was kind'a just a tongue-in-cheek poke at the slew of RIP threads around here lately. Some people hate them, some like 'em. Some people like to talk about stuff other than PS, some don't. You'll never please everyone around here.

RIP you all

You are so cool

My local pub run an on going comp
They call it 'Pop your clogs'
And all you do is bet on the next celeb that you think is gonna croak it next.
You pay £5 for each name you put up and the winner gets the lot.
The celeb has to be well known enough to make the front page of a national newspaper and must be in good health at the time of entry, so no choosing someone who's on deaths door already.

Its a bit sort of sick, but they get alot of interest in it.

Thanks for the list! I'll start making RIP threads to each of the people we missed right away....
I'm having trouble breathing, just a sec. asdfklj;cvm, ............................................................
must click submit before passing out

Who the F--- are these people? Did not give a rat's ass when they were alive, why would I waste a perfectly good rat's ass now?

Joe Christ died on the 20th...would've been cool going through life as J. Christ.

July 1st deceased celebrities...

Alexis Arguello 1 July
Karl Malden 1 July
Baltasar Porcel 1 July
Mollie Sugden 1 July
Lyudmila Zykina 1 July

RIP you all.

like anyone gives a toss, tell me when a hero dies, henry winkler, clint eastwood, stalone, bob dylan, tom waits, leonard coen, celeblaty to me means household name acros the world, not some wanker only hated for his TV comercials,
get a life sad .ppl

that´s exactly my point splodge... and to avoid the countless RIP threads about people we give a damn, we decided to put this one up... I have no idea who is Karl Malden and Mollie Sugden... and still they got their own threads... so, if we are supposed to list all the dead celebrities, at least let´s do it in one place only... this is the only reason I´m updating the PSC Graveyard...

RIP Steve McNair

They were attrocious.

Bit sad he's died after their tune was used for a major ad campaign though. (lynx body spray)
