Thank you, Little Nemo! I never imagined contemplating the death of the rich and famous would bring out such joy and wit! Glad you remembered to post notice that your points don’t count if you kill somebody on your own list. ---

What if you make a deal with someone else to kill off each other’s Deathpool list? ---

Creative thinking, Kat, but I’d have to disqualify both players as accessories. People, I can’t emphasize this enough; killing celebrities is not just a bad idea, it’s a crime in many jurisdictions. Unless you’re talking about Roseanne. Have at her. Anyway, the rest of you might wish to bring your picks over to [Celebrity Deathpool 2002](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=101918). Unless you’re feeling really lucky and expect on a lot of People magazine tribute issues between now and the end of the month.
