Dead at your age

We now know how old you are.

Thank you so much! For some morbid reason I get the biggest kick out of this.

I love the check box titled [i]Notify me when I've outlived someone[/i]

:)

...Alice in Chains, and thinking about whether or not they would have produced much more music had Staley lived.

So, I check out this site, and guess whose name pops up as the notable 'I outlived them'?

Layne Staley.

Weirdness!!!

but I've just gone to sign up. It sounds awesome. Apparently I've already outlived Ray Combs (Family Feud) and Michael Bennett (A Chorus Line), and I've only got 11 days to go on the King of France to persecuted French Huguenots and started the Italian War.

Thanks Mae. My day just perked up.

Assuming I make it to December...

Louis Braille was almost three weeks younger than you when he died of tuberculosis on January 6, 1852. He was a French musician and educator who created a raised-dot printing system for the blind. He died 115 years before you were born.
Neet...and I think we're all a tad morbit in our own little ways ;)

you outlive more and more people!! :D

I outlived:
Vasily Lazarev (Russian test pilot & astronaut)

Robert Goddard (father of modern rocketry)

Gianfranco Ferre (Stylistic Director for the Christain Dior)

Sandra Dee (Gidget)

J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of atomic bomb)

And if I subscribe, it will notify me in 8 days that I outlived an older pop star. :O That did not tempt me to subscribe.

It was fun! :^0

That works for me as well. :)

I've outlived:
[i]Kenneth Tynan by three days. He was a drama critic and journalist who was the mind behind the erotic stage revue "Oh! Calcutta!" (1969). He died of emphysema on July 26, 1980, when you were 24 years old.

Enrico Fermi by about 2 months. He was a physicist who created the first controlled nuclear chain reaction and first nuclear-power plant. He died of stomach cancer on November 28, 1954, 2 years before you were born.

In 11 days, when you reach 53 years and 130 days of age, your lifespan will surpass that of a creator of paradox that a sphere can be reassembled into two spheres the same size as the original.[/i]

edit: Holy cow. I've been around for 19,477 days. :0

my uncle! of course he had 100 pounds on me at my age.
I am sure I wont outlive my dad though, mainly cause he didnt smoke, and had a more physical job.

At your exact age, Georges Danton died of execution by guillotine. He was a lawyer, master orator and leading figure in the French Revolution.

If I make it through the day, I will have officially outlived JFK.

I've outlived Queen Mary I of England, nicknamed Bloody Mary. (My friends would make some comment about my personality and the possibility that I was her in a past life.)

I've also outlived famed Golfer Payne Stewart, who is from my home town, and since his death, they name everything golf related and not so golf related after him.

Apparently, I'm also a Zombie because I didn't check the dates on the thread. I think I'll go home and go back to bed. D'oh.

But I am glad you did. :)
