If we were running a one week, one slot death pool, my list would be 1. Rolf Harris. I suspect he’ll check himself out before the end of the week to avoid the near-certainty of dying in prison, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he went in a suicide pact with Alwen. You people are the only ones I can express these ghoulish thoughts to. You’re my audience of the damned. ---
