How many points do I get for my 2 unique picks? Because 11 is such a weak number.
Seven points for Frankie Laine, four for Kitty Carlisle.

Exactly. Lou Rawls popped my Death Pool cherry last year. I’m not a virgin, I’m just in a period of involuntary Death Pool celibacy.

Your Dead Pool Cherry is magically renewed at Midnight on the first of the year.
It is the only place in the world that one gets their virginity back at the stroke of midnight.
I usually have one measely corpse by now.
Harmumphhhf.
Well, I’ve got my obligatory one per year, so everyone else on my list is safe now. It’s just a shame that my one had to be Vonnegut.

I was re-virginated?! Crap. 
I’m still convinced that the only things keeping Tammy Faye alive is sheer orneriness and being on my list.

Hot damn, I’m on the board!
I thought he died years ago.
Kurt Waldheim is tot.
Dunno. Poppin’ your cherry on a nazi. Kinda cool and kinda creepy. Not many of them left anymore.
I think there was a question for a while as to whether he really was an ex-nazi.
He certainly is now.
Ruth Bell Graham, wife of Billy Graham for 63 years, has died. It’s time to start placing side-bets on Billy Boy.
Kelly Jo Dowd, mother of teenage golf phenom Dakota Dowd, has died.
And no, I didn’t have either of them.

BINGO! Popped my cherry! And Billy is on my list, almost money in the bank.
I think Ruth is going to be worth points to lots of Dopers.

I popped mine with a Pope. Very creepy, but I was glad for the points.

Yep, I think they say the widower generally doesn’t last 6 months after his wife dies once they get to a certain age. That is cutting it close for us now, but I am optimistic. We may get a TV preacher trifecta afterall!

Batting 1000 in alternates, zero real points.
Darn, all my alternates are dying on me! (I had Kirkpatrick as an alternate for this year, but had to change my list when she died late last year.)
