The Celebrity Death Pool 2011

First time anything related to Ziggy ever made me laugh.

Shame on you, even in the Death Pool.

There is no shame in the Death Pool.

Shame on all of us for being in a Death Pool.

I’d rather laugh in the Death Pool than read a fawning obit in Parade magazine any day.

Who knows what death will brighten your day?

But…Ziggy!

:slight_smile:

I’m afraid you can’t pick a cartoon character to be on your Death Pool list.

Just had a thought… what if a celeb died under murky circumstances, and the local police decide they need to investigate anyone who listed the celeb on a Death Pool list? I suppose there’s so many lists out there that some celebs (I’m looking at you, Amy Winehouse) would have hundreds of suspects.

Ziggy was suppose to be funny? Really? Who knew.

E Tu, Ujeste? :slight_smile:

The Gordon Ramsey sex dwarf eaten by badgers seems to be made up.

Arch West, inventor of Doritos, has died. Reportedly, he will be buried with “a sprinkling of the bright orange chips that have become a cheesy, tangy, American institution.”

Well when the chips are down, nobody scores.

I love the picture of Generic Hospital Bed that accompanies the article.
