Bowie heading for the Wake?

David Bowie: singer's pale appearance reignites health fears

The reclusive singer has been pictured in New York on a rare public outing dressed in grey cap and hooded top, bearing little resemblance to the fashion icon of the 1970s.
Bowie, 65, whose alter egos have included the alien-like Ziggy Stardust and the dapper thin white duke, lives in a large Lower-Manhattan apartment with his ex-model wife Iman and daughter Lexi.
He was pictured picking up a takeaway lunch from the Italian Bottega Falai Café in New York.
Rumours about the health of the former heavy smoker and drug addict have been circulating ever since his ill fated 2004 tour.
The problems began with an incident in Norway when a fan threw a lollipop that hit Bowie in the eye, causing him to storm offstage.

(continued, that's how it starts...) :smoke:

I hope I'm that healthy when I die. Fuck, I wish I were that healthy now. :?

He doesn't look either constipated or water logged. He's got a couple of years.

We could bury you now. You'd get to attend the funeral. I'd do the eulogy, and you'd get fifteen minutes for rebuttal. :tup:

And a week after his burial, Bowie would still look better than me.
