Donald Sutherland earns me 12 points for my MASH themed list.

I’m not happy about it, but it is the TV show cast that will be even more devastating.

Knocked out of the top ten and Eva Marie Saint is about to slip into pointlessness. Not a good week for me.

Of all the years to move Richard Simmons to an alternate… :roll_eyes: Rest in peace, sir, I enjoyed your workout records.

Hamas said its political chief Ismail Haniyeh was killed in “a treacherous Zionist raid on his residence in Tehran”.

Born in either 1962/63, accounts differ and no specific date. I believe 37 points for me.

Wikipedia has been updated with a birth date of Jan 29th 1962.

Cool, 38 pts.

Hamas military leader Mohammad Deif, an architect of the Oct. 7 attack, is confirmed killed by Israel
After what the Israeli military called an “intelligence assessment,” the IDF said Deif died when fighter jets hit Khan Younis in Gaza on July 13.

Multiple sources: Mohammed Deif - Google Search

That’s another one off my list of middle east troublemakers.

42 pts.

US and/or Israeli intelligence are going to be coming to you smithsb.

But it was worth it. Keep it up, smithsb!

In keeping with the “hell in a handbasket” idea of death pools; “It was like shooting a fish in a barrel”.

Joyous points to assign!

Mitzi McCall has dry cleaned her last fur coat. 7 points for me. Weird, the preview reads age 91, but the article and Wikipedia says 93.

How many times is this poor woman going to die? I mean, once on Sullivan wasn’t enough?
