    Looks like we should have put some money on the January WotM award being next to die.

    @Oxbridge: Is Kissinger really still alive? I thought he looked old in 1972 when he was jetting around the world crusading for peace in our time

    That may have been Chamberlain. I think he really is dead.

    Kissinger is still with us. He got a mention on the radio news here in DC yesterday, which is why I thought of him.

    Buzz Aldrin, while I think of it.

    What I actually said a month ago was

    'Hugo Chavez was described this morning as "joking and laughing" by a Venezuelan minister - which means he's dying in my book...'

    I think Cuba will be keeping an eye on what happens post Chavez. If it looks good they may admit that Castro died a while ago.

    Well done AReader. i You should do the lottery.

    Did I mention I was in DC, that's where the Barrack Obama lives. In America. I'm practically his neighbour at the moment.

    How do I go about putting some money on President Mugabe, please?

    That's very generous, but I suspect he doesn't need it. International support & aid money - he'll probably get by in his later years. And don't worry about his family & friends, I think they'll manage just about.

    Oh, I see, you mean a wager. Don't hold your breath, he may have private health insurance.

    "... he may have private health insurance."

    So had quite a lot of the others on the stiff list.

    Al, that was funny. Has anyone got N. Mandela yet?

    Actually, I would prefer to see dead the people who invariably answer "Who living or dead would you most like to have dinner with?" with Nelson Mandela, The Dalai Lama or Buddha. It's a sign for "I'm so much cooler than you."

    Last I heard he was on the mend. So good news.

    How about one of the Stones 'live' on stage at Glasto?

    No wonder people don't bet on the Royals. I'd say a lot of people got badly burned on the Queen Mum throughout the 80s and 90s.
