William Jefferson Clinton
Hillary Rodham Clinton
Salvatore F. DiMasi
James E. Carter
And the Spare:
Henry Kissenger
I’m dropping a few survivors off of last years list. Could be a disaster.
Held over from last year:
1 Jerry Remy- Baseball player and announcer. He has survived cancer so many times that I’m not sure he can die.
2 Clive James- author, poet and much more. He was about to die years ago and is still going.
3 Holly Rowe- Sportscaster. She seems to be doing much better now. Keeping her on to help her cause.
4 Mark Gastineau- NFL player. Claims many football related health issues. Still an asshole.
5 Christopher Ayres- Voice over artist/ cartoon actor
New for this year:
6 John Andretti- former race car driver
7 Benny Mardones- singer of one of the creepiest songs ever. And it went to #1. Twice.
8 Beth Chapman- Mrs Dog the Bounty Hunter
9 David Koch- Half of the Koch Brothers. His undisclosed health issues might just have been cover for being kicked out of his own company but I’m taking a chance.
10 Abby Lee Miller- Dance Mom
11 Shaun Weiss- actor. Not-so Mighty Duck
12 Matt Millen- NFL player, coach, broadcaster. I thought he was going to be my shoe in but his prospects are looking up.
13 Sandra Day O’Connor- Supremes
Jerry Remy

Matt Millen

Okay, Vorlon, it would have been nice to have a clean list, but it’s entered now, except for one pick. Which James E. Carter are you selecting?
Last year I posted a list in the Themed Pool but forgot to enter one in the regular pool. This list is primarily leftovers from my 2016 and 2017 lists with some filler.

Richard O’Sullivan, British actor (born 1944) - my ninth year playing this card. One of us has got to die eventually.
Lee Radziwell, American socialite (born 1933) - Featured on my list eight times. Just my luck - to pick a Kennedy family member that doesn’t die tragically young.
Albert Finney, American actor (born 1936) - despite his seemingly robust health.
Clive James, Australian author (born 1939) - Announced he was terminally ill in 2010. DP-tease.
Alan Jones, Australian broadcaster (born 1941) - This one is more wishful thinking.
Jeannie Little, Australian television personality (born 1938) - Fond memories of watching her on daytime TV with my mother when I was small, now sullied by betting on her death.
Bert Newton, Australian television personality (born 1938) - health and mobility issues, and now his 44 year marriage is in peril due to his gambling addiction, according to the highly credible gossip mags. I think Bert’s done.
Valerie Harper, American actor (born 1939) - six years into a terminal diagnosis, apparently drinking from the same water source as Clive James.
The Amazing Johnathon, American entertainer (born 1958) - also drinking from the Harper/James well.
Ben Cousins, retired Australian professional footballer (born 1978) - ongoing drug issues. Either heading for an early grave, or may stumble upon the Keith Richards immortality cocktail.
Bob Hawke, former Australian Prime Minister (born 1929) - Recent conflicting news reports about his health.
Priscilla Presley, American actor (born 1945) - Random pick from the senior’s list.
Olivia Newton John, English-Australian singer (born 1948) - third cancer battle.

About to leave for work which I volunteered to do tonight and get off tomorrow night (and get paid for it) when there will be wayyy more work to do, plus likely work over. Don’t need that.
And I can’t spell journalist
OK, that explains why you’re posting your list with nearly 4 hours to go, when you normally put your list up with about 2 minutes to go. Gotta admit I was startled to see your list appear so early in the evening! 
I could say that sportsmanship is what will keep me from vulturing some of your picks, but in actuality, I’m tired and I’m gonna go to bed. (Can’t believe I’m saying this at 9:30pm on NYE.) Enjoy your night off tomorrow night!
