It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

Haha.
My theory is that Cusamano IS the Grim Reaper, and visits this thread to gloat at his handiwork.

In keeping this thread going, how do we distinguish between someone who is special to a Forum member, and a stranger whose death is taken from a newspaper?

I have no idea.

Guess we are all special to Cusamano, who has no other enjoyment apart from carrying that sickle?

Guys,

believe it or not but I really was thinking about posting the death of Ahmed Jaabari or not.
I decided to do so because I think someone like Jassir Arafat started just like him but didn´t end up murdered but honored with the Noble Prize for Peace.
