Death Pool 2006

It's not quite over yet, but so far it appears I am to be congratulated for winning the Death Pool 2005 with correctly guessing two deaths: The Pope, and Arthur Miller. I totally should have guessed Rosa Parks, but oh well.

Nobody else got any correct, though you might have won had you guessed "hundreds of New Orleaners", "hundreds of American soldiers", or "lots of people with AIDS". Not really, though. Because you have to select famous people.

Now it's time for you to predict the demise of famous people in 2006. Remember, Ted Williams died in 2002, so don't waste your time.

Deadline to respond (in the comments section) is December 31.

This is Napes. You people are morons. Half the celebs you named are in perfect health, and Regis Philbin barely has grey hair. Here's the real list:

* Michael J. Fox
* Estelle Getty
* Don Ho
* Baba Booey's teeth

I hate blogs. I can't believe JLC suckered me into discussing this with you delinquents.

It ain't health that keeps you alive, son. It's staying away from fireballs.

I recommends y'all get some more names in before Dec. 31 strikes. By the way, if they die before Jan. 1, 2006, it don't count. So, don't vote for Maya Angelou. She's going to die on Christmas. On the other hand, one sure thing for 2006 for those taking notes, is that we'll see the demise of a man whose name begins with "B" and ends with "illy Graham".
