ACTUAL death? AFAIK, the forum software isn't yet able to cope with posts from beyond the grave.
I mean, how could you register with an ISP unless you had a proper billing address? "4th grave left of the path, 3rd coffin down, under the begonias,St Bunglewurzel's Cemetery, just dig down a bit, and ask for Fred", wouldn't impress the hard-headed businessmen of the dotcoms.
Unless of course Woodgnome is, in real life, Doris Stokes...........which to judge from his near-psychic ability to detect potential deletions, he (or she) might well be.
Perhaps we could have a seance, and ask him (or her).
I've got me own ouija board.

You would have to assume that in every case of 'bungee elastic snappery' the bungeer died, either that or the survivors don't frequent this forum.
I did see a little snip-it on telly recently where a guy doing a bungee jump got his head bitten clean off by a crocodile. He must have survived though or they wouldn't be able to show it on telly. I can't remember what channel it was on though I'm certain it wasn't BBC.

He had his head 'bitten clean off', and he survived?
I suppose they just staple-gunned it back on......that's the NHS cutbacks for you.......
And did the croc survive, and end up with its own talk-show?
