I think so…but I don’t know where, and I don’t know when.
I do, although I will get no points for my selection of her. I thought she’d live forever.

I posted this in the Brigadoon forum, but Ian Holm has sailed west, In addition to playing Bilbo in the LOTR movies, he played Frodo in the BBC radio drama. He was, of course, in lots of other stuff including Alien, Time Bandits, and Chariots of Fire.
Brian
Joel Schumacher, director of many movies, has died at age 20 points(80 years old).
He directed two Batman movies, including the terrible Batman and Robin, which he has more than once apologized for.
He also directed the Phantom of the Opera musical movie and I really love that. It gets criticism, but is a favorite at my house. He has many other high quality movies and a few more stinkers as well.
Joel Schumacher flatlines.
Carlos Ruiz Zafon died at 45 points.
Steve Bing, producer and Elizabeth Hurley ex, reportedly dead by suicide at 55. (TMZ)
Classic Marvel Comics inker Joe Sinnott, best known for inking the Fantastic Four first over Jack Kirby and then for two decades afterward, dies at 7 points.
This, along with Denny O’Neil last week, are the first points I’ve gotten in like two years.

The screenwriter of Kangaroo Jack jumped to his own death. There is a joke somewhere in there, but…other than pointing out that it happened, I can’t think of it.
Milton Glaser, designer of ‘I Love NY’ logo, dies at 91
Charles Webb, author of ‘The Graduate,’ dies in England at 81 years old
Kelly Asbury, director of Shrek 2 and Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, dies at 60
He’s just 73 years old
Leave him alone, they say
Benny Mardones, singer songwriter of on of the creepiest songs ever to chart, dead at 73. Into the Night reached the Top 20 twice in 1980 and 1989. One of only a handful of songs to do that. Oh and a unique pick for me.
Now he can fly, he’ll pick you up, he’ll take you into the night…
And Loach is now is first place!

I’ve got six people on my list over the age of 85, four of those are over 90, and there is a freakin’ pandemic going on.
My score to date? Zero.
Most of mine in this game are elderly, and I have only ten points.
But I did find a guy turning 100 in October, that I will use next year if he doesn’t pass on. I just learned about him yesterday. I was viewing a YouTube video about the Berlin Airlift, and a pilot who started dropping candy for the kids was mentioned. His name was Gail Halvorsen. I went to look up when he passed and lo and behold, he’s still with us. Look him up in Wikipedia, his life is amazing.
The only other time I’ve been in 1st is when I’ve been tied with everyone else at zero points. 
Into the Night…
Man, I always thought “Into The Night” was a Steve Perry song. Oh well.
Man, I always thought “Into The Night” was a Steve Perry song. Oh well.
This is ironic, but only to me (and one other person). We lived in an apartment when I was growing up. In the 1980s, my upstairs neighbor must have been obsessed with “Into The Night”, since he/she played it, along with one other song, 3-4 times a night - almost every night for about three years.
The other song? “Foolish Heart” by Steve Perry.
