2026 Celebrity Death Pool

How about now?

Nope. Somehow I overlooked Wu-Tang Clan when I was compiling the list.

Ha, I kind of had forgotten about them. I wonder if Wu-Tang is any good; I’ve never heard a single song. I know “ol dirty bastard” died years ago.

Shame on a N***a, Wu-Tang Clain Ain’t Nuthin to F’ With and CREAM are all incredible. If you are into 90’s and early 2000’s hip-hop and rap, they are a must listen.

That was less than a week ago that @RivkahChaya volunteered to write @Baker. I’d say allow another couple of days to see if they get a response.

Though one easy thing to try, since you have her real name, would be to Google ‘[Baker’s real name] obituary’ and see if anything pops up.

I did that, and got no hits newer than 2010.

I expect she would respond by posting, not be writing to me, although I did send my snail address in case she’s in some kind of no-power situation.

I will tell you from personal experience that if you are admitted to a hospital through emergency, and do not have a phone or laptop with you-- or do have one, but not a charger, you are going Amish unless you can get a friend to go to your place and pick up your stuff for you.

Know the as the person who just HAPPENED to enter an ER with a laptop and charger with me, but had to get DH to eventually bring my phone, which I could not access on my laptop without a code texted to the phone! and also as the person who went to the hospital to retrieve keys from a friend who lives alone, and go to her place to get her dog and take it to daycare/boarding, feed her cat (I also changed the litterbox), and gather up some of her things, including phone charger.

Hospitals do not lend you shit. And I get not having Chromebooks to lend out, but how hard would chargers be?

70 is a decent run but Rob Grant’s contribution to British comedy should not be understated. Red Dwarf is iconic.

Glad to hear it!

Just like in hotels, it would not be hard at all: they already have loads that former guests have forgotten. Every time I go to the hotel reception and say that last time I was there I forgot my charger they fetch a big cardboard box from under the counter full with chargers they have collected during the last years and they ask “which one is yours?”.
So, my pro tip would be: Don’t ask “do you happen to have a charger you could lend me?”, ask instead “did you find my charger? I am afraid I left it in my room the last time.”

Breaking up is hard to do. Dying, not so much.

Another one of those “I had no idea he was still alive” guys.

We have picks for Diamond and Young – people, you gotta choose your Neils better.

Since Terrence Stamp died a while back, no matter how you slice it the old adage “Neil before Zod” just isn’t true.
