Final bow: Actor Joseph Ruskin is dead at 89 back on 12/23. Any impact on 2013 pool?
Hey, I’m in Hawaii and still awake.
“While the rest of the world counts down the last hours until the new year, at about this same time in 2014, you may be able to look to your watch and count down the remaining hours until your own death.
That’s the promise of Tikker, a timepiece set by a special algorithm used to predict the exact moment in the future you will die.
The maker of the unique arm piece, Fredrik Colting, has announced his so-called “death watch” will be availablewho has a Kickstarter campaign for a so-called “death watch” starting in mid-2014 for about $79.”
Potential to mess up the death pool.
Sidles up to celebrity: “Say you wouldn’t know what time it is, do you?”:eek:
*When I was walking down the street one day
A pretty lady looked at me and said her diamond watch had stopped cold dead
And I said…*I’m sorry I didn’t have you in the Death Pool!

I did not put Barbara Bush on the list as many others did only to learn that she was hospitalized this morning…
One of them was 103yrs old!
Bill Gallagher is not seeking re-election to the Montana PSC.
I guess he really IS planning to spend more time with his family.
I was going to put him on my list for 2014, but thought he was too fringe or obscure to qualify as a celebrity… Good thing, though, as he appears to have died in 2013.
He appears to have been alive on new year’s eve.
Israeli media is reporting that Ariel Sharon has taken a turn for the worse.
Mis-read the link, and it appears he is alive but preparing… Oh we’ll at least it was an ethical decision!
That’s because a lot of people dropped him from their lists for 2014.
This one just confuses me. He seems to be clean and healthy. Why is he on so many lists?
Now, 5 names
According to Israeli medias, Sharon’s death is a matter of days now.
He’s had at least two mini strokes (Frankie Muniz).
Of course.
Okay, that’s logical.
