Huh. First time in 3 years I get _any_ points, and it’s on a very, very long shot.

Lisa “Left Eye” Lopez, age 30.

So this puts you in the lead, right? **Nemo**?

And I was the other. Unfortunately, I don’t remember all my picks, and they were lost in the crash. I think I had Dudley Moore, but I can’t be positive.

Nemo- I swore I submitted a list this year, but I can’t seem to find myself in the thread- was it lost when the Board changed?

If I’m not in I’m not in, I could be mistaken, but I swore I picked wrestler Davey Boy Smith, who just died at the age of 39- Vin

Okay, it appears my previous post on this thread has disappeared.

The bad news is that a number of submissions were lost in the crash. I have copies of about five of them other than the ones that survived here; the rest are gone unless anyone else has a copy of the thread.

I’ll admit to laxness on posting updates. I’m currently on vacation but I’ll try to get something out before the end of the month.

[John Gotti dead at 61.](http://dailynews.yahoo.com/fc/World/Organized_Crime)

So, I get 39 points? Is that how this works? (I’m totally shocked that I picked someone who died!)

I think mine are gone for good then, since I can’t find a copy of my list anywhere on my computer. I’m sad to say that Chuck Jones was on my list. ☹ (Sad that he died, that is. Not sad that I didn’t get the points.)

I picked Gotti also.  
Not shocked though, I knew he had terminal cancer.  
He hung in there longer than I thought.

So did anybody pick Ann Landers, Mr. Entwistle, or Rosemary Clooney?

That’s two for me so far this year, 50 points total.
