Notable Deaths 2011

The media have obituaries for people written well in advance of when they actually die. It's pretty scurillous, but that's the way they pile it out so quickly.
 
They certainly do, the best prepared one is for the Queen. I think I remember hearing that the BBCs name for the Queen Mother's death preparations was called Project Mrs Robinson or something like that or maybe that's the one for the Queen :? Who knows :/
 
^^Same goes for most heads of state. They have entire funerals planned out in case a king, queen or president bites the bucket somewhere. According to the film "The Queen", they had to use the current plan for the Queen Mother's funeral when Diana died, since her death was not prepared for.

Unbelievable! That poor person has not been keeping fit enough...

Or too fit. There's a theory that the amount of times your heart can beat is actually defined by your genes. So if you work your heart a lot, but the genes say it can only beat 1 billion times, then you'll die at about half the age of somebody who rests more and doesn't work so hard.

Obviously it's massively more complicated than that, but essentially you have a built in time limit and there's nothing you can do about it, or know about it. That doesn't mean exercise is bad for you, it just means it is if you're unlucky, much like everything in life.

Uh, no. Actually he was part the japanese mecha experimentation programme (Jmep). There were complications in moving his brain into the mech and it rejected him after fighting other mechs to screeching guitars and hard rifts and passionate singing.

Educate your self furie. *that blue frowny face, disgust?*
