This says something about you. That you have such a list. No entirely sure what it saysâŚ
Iâm a planner, prognosticator, risk analyst. The sort of perceptive futurist no forward-looking business should be without. Winner of last yearâs Fantasy Celeb Cemetery, currently #2 on aodeadpool.org⌠the dice canât decide my fate, but celebrity pools sometimes have dead certaintiesâŚ

I have a vague memory of watching new episodes in the early 80s
