Celebrity Death Pool 2017

Talk about poetic justice.

Or karma.

Good for the elephant!!!

That’s why I always put a stuffed mouse on my hat when I’m hunting elephants. :wink:

Janet Edmonds, Canadian (Newfoundland to be specific) actress was claimed by cancer last weekend. A bit of diggingshows her to be only 50.

Sad for her family and the Canadian artistic community. But points is points.

Speaking of Bond, it looks like no one noticed the exit of one Dahlia Lavi about three weeks ago at 24[sup]*[/sup]. She was in the good version of Casino Royale.

*pts, of course

There was a thread in Cafe Society though…

Hey, movement on the leader board at last! Per our Death Shroom’s most recent scoreboard, that should be good for a jump from ninth to third.

89 yr old Tommy Lasorda had successful surgery to replace his pacemaker.

Zbigniew Brzezinski dead at 11 points.

ataraxy22 gets points!

Writer Denis Johnson dead at 67. He would have fit my themed list, but I didn’t have him.

PHILADELPHIA — Jared Martin, who became a fan favorite with his portrayal of the charming cowboy Dusty Farlow on the 1980s soap opera “Dallas,” has died. He was 75.

Too bad proper names aren’t allowed in Scrabble. Playing his name would virtually ensure victory.

Former Major League Baseball pitcher and Kentucky politician Jim Bunning has died at 85.

Gregg Allman dead at 69. Points for several DPers.

Oh, no. One of the mainstays of my music genre.

Didn’t he use to Bang Cher?

Oh yeah, “as the Vietnam War intensified, Allman decided to find a way to avoid the draft. So he shot himself in the foot.”

I always thought Dickey Betts made that band.

He was a great pitcher but a flaming asshole as a politician.

Damn damn damn

He was on the top of next years list.
