NYU Posted December 20, 2005 Report Posted December 20, 2005 Are you saying both George Bushes are going to die next year? That'd be really weird.

Failed Bridge Posted December 23, 2005 Report Posted December 23, 2005 3. Maria Capovilla (world's oldest person) That doesn't really make her famous.
AboveAverage484 Posted December 23, 2005 Report Posted December 23, 2005 3. Maria Capovilla (world's oldest person) That doesn't really make her famous. Yeah, really. I could make a list of twenty people and then kill them all in November and win this contest handily.
Xavier Cromartie Posted December 23, 2005 Report Posted December 23, 2005 Fine. I don't want any controversy when I win.

King - BEST BET Bob Barker Charles Grodin Charlton Heston Christopher Lloyd Clint Eastwood Dick Clark Elizabeth Taylor Fidel Castro Gerald Ford - BEST BET Hugh Hefner Jake Roberts Jimmy Carter Larry Flynt Marty Jannetty Muhammad Ali Queen Elizabeth II Zsa Zsa Gabor
NYU Posted January 3, 2006 Report Posted January 3, 2006 I don't think anybody had the guy who played Blue in "Old School", so let's call that one a draw.
Guest Boobie Posted January 4, 2006 Report Posted January 4, 2006 (edited) 1. Dick Clark 2. Gerald Ford *BEST BET 3. George Romero 4. Hank Aaron 5. Michael Jackson 6. Charlston Heston 7.

Hugh Heffner 18. Kate Moss 19. Mary Tyler Moore 20. Christian Slater Edited to add this statement only: Sorry I was late in submitting this list. Currently none of my people have died, so I do not see the harm. If I cant play I understand. Edited January 5, 2006 by Boobie
GreatWhiteNope Posted January 4, 2006 Author Report Posted January 4, 2006 Boobie - you can play with the stipulation that you can keep only one Best Bet (Gerald Ford). None of us were able to take into consideration Dick Clark's New Year's Eve apparance, and therefore it would be unfair to let you pick him as a Best Bet. NO MORE SUBMISSIONS - IT'S OVAH! And by the way, Ariel Sharon just had a massive stroke: http://www.nbr.co.nz/home/column_article.a...id=5&cname=Asia
NYU Posted January 4, 2006 Report Posted January 4, 2006 Ah, fuck Ariel Sharon. Don't put me in the hole already. Try eating healthy for once.
Failed Bridge Posted January 4, 2006 Report Posted January 4, 2006 I think he recovers through the stroke and makes it. That's just a gut feeling.
Guest Leelee Posted January 4, 2006 Report Posted January 4, 2006 Poop, I thought I picked Sharon. Oh well. Please die soon so you're not worth many points.
TSA09 Posted January 6, 2006 Report Posted January 6, 2006 Well I guess this means Lou Rawls is the first to die in 2006
CanadianChris Posted January 6, 2006 Report Posted January 6, 2006 Well I guess this means Lou Rawls is the first to die in 2006 That's OK, no one had him anyway.
Vern Gagne Posted January 9, 2006 Report Posted January 9, 2006 My sister was telling me the official rules. -15 people, plus five extra picks -When one of your choices dies. You add one of the five to your list -No death row inmates, or celebrity's knocking on heaven's door. -Points system is 100 minus that persons age.
Guest Princess Leena Posted January 9, 2006 Report Posted January 9, 2006 There's different rules for all dead pools.
