And me, bringing my August total to 90 points. Seriously: 90 points in one month!
Bah! I have a streak of 8 months with zero points. That’s something to brag about.
Of course you mean “Kirk.”
Pshaw. My streak ended last year, but it lasted almost two years

35% of celebrities have died, representing 4.4% of the nominees and 6.2% of the vote.
17-way tie for 44th place! w00t!!!
Not.
I swear, I suck at this game.
I don’t understand what you are saying here. If 4.4% of the nominated celebrities have died, what does the 35% mean?
OMG, have 35% of ALL celebrities died THIS YEAR!!??? I didn’t think that would happen until 2012.
Yours is the kiss of life. Not too great for this game, maybe, but still…
So, does that mean 82 people have picked correctly, and 85 have not? Roughly half of us have gotten a “hit” on our list?
More than half of us remain hitless, with just over 25% of the year to go?
Doesn’t look good.
I don’t understand it that much myself, I would like to think that one number or the other allows for multiple instances of the same celeb. That is, if more than one person had Zsa Zsa, it would reflect on one list, but the number of voters would not reflect on the other.
I’m tied for 71st place! Whoooooo!
No, just at the box office.
6th place. YAY!

Amarone: Thanks for the “participant” notice for August, I will cherish it!
-
Randy Seltzer: Ahha! 90 points in one month when you were in the cellar with so many of us. That is indeed worth a cheer and a fine inspiration for many. although I need 6 people on my list to die to get 90 points, but here’s hoping.

September, don’t let me down!
That’s why I picked all young celebrities. If the big one hits LA and I’m golden.
Cammie King Conlon, the actress who portrayed the doomed daughter of Rhett Butler and Scarlett O’Hara in “Gone With the Wind,” has died at 76.
One wonders if she had put a knife under her deathbed, if it would have cut the pain in two.
And you’re from Atlanta! Shame on you! 
But if we give the quote to the correct actress, Butterfly McQueen came to a horrible end.
Then you don’t want to hear my take on the movie then.
4 hours too long. Yes, I know it was only 3.
My Mom compared it to The Matrix in terms of groundbreakingness. I didn’t see it.
Then again, my Original DVD transfer of the latter doesn’t hold a candle to my remasterd DVD standard def transfer. To say nothing of Blu-ray. [I don’t have Blu-ray though.]
What does that have to do with a successful actress like Butterfly McQueen being burned to death in her house?
