I voted for Carter. Now dammit its his turn to pay off!!!
Can’t say I know who he is, but British actor Stephen Lewis has died at 12 points
We have three celebrities surnamed Lewis, but not that one.
In this thread, we’re ALL in that handbasket! ![]()
Now excuse me, I’ve got to Google a few people to see whether they’re gonna kick off soon or what. ![]()
I will be in three different handbaskets next year. I play here and play and moderate at another site as well. Now just last week, while searching for something else, I have found yet a third website that has a deathpool. I will submit three different lists, to see how they work out.
Will you share with your humble minions, Oh Most Esteemed Death Mistress?
See your PM’s
Julian Bond, a former chairman of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, a charismatic figure of the 1960s civil rights movement, a lightning rod of the anti-Vietnam War campaign and a lifelong champion of equal rights for minorities, died on Saturday night, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center. He was 75.
Pakistan’s hardline Islamist general Hamid Gul, known for nurturing militants in Kashmir and Punjab and Afghanistan during his stint as chief of the powerful ISI, has died following a brain haemorrhage.
78-year-old Gul
Batman has died
His secret identity was not Bruce Wayne but Leonard Robinson. The guy, on his own dime, did all this work for kids, giving stuff away and visiting them in the hospital.
I just heard of this guy on Saturday, when his 2012 enounter with the police was on a clip show Caught on Camera. Now he’s dead, and after reading more about him I am so sorry.
And amazingly enough, Andrew 21 didn’t have her on his list.
Speaking of Andrew’s list, the youngest person on his list, Abdul Rashid Kahn, turns 107 tomorrow.
A Martin Crowe has died, but the wrong one.
First Batman (ok, not the real one), now Batgirl (the real one) Yvonne Craig has left us. http://www.yvonnecraig.com/news/2015/08/19/yvonne-craigs-official-obituary/
NM - I should read the whole thread.

Did you have him?
Congratulations!
No points but a tribute to a WWII ace.
One day after Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, Fritz Payne’s Marine unit headed to sea on the aircraft carrier Saratoga.
Within a year, he flew into the elite ranks of American aces — fighter pilots who downed at least five enemy aircraft.
He died Aug. 6 at his home in Rancho Mirage, Calif., a week after turning 104. He was the oldest living ace, according to Arthur Bednar, coordinator of the Seattle-based American Fighter Aces Association. No cause of death was reported.
“Throughout that strenuous period when the island airfield was under constant bombardment and our precarious ground positions were menaced by the desperate counter thrusts of a fanatical foe, Major Payne repeatedly patrolled hostile territory and intercepted enemy bombing flights,” a Marine citation read. “In five vigorous fights against tremendous odds, [he] shot down a total of six Japanese planes.”
Officially, Gen. Payne was credited with 5 1/2 kills because one of them was in collaboration with another U.S. airman.
No, I don’t have anyone that old. Valerie Harper’s the oldest person on my list.
But seeing as how I don’t have the ex-cricket player Martin Crowe, but you and **Registered At Last **and Fear Itself and CAMJAY77 all have him, from my POV that Martin Crowe is the wrong one, so this one must be the right one.
Impeccable logic, don’t you think? ![]()
At any rate, I’m rooting hard for the cricketer Martin Crowe to hang in there for another four and a half months. If he does, you can bet he’ll be on my 2016 list.
Logic has nothing to do with it.
You have a G-d damn time machine.
