Really brilliant! I admire good parodies and really regret I do so poorly making them up myself.
Jerry Brown, Linebacker for the Dallas Cowboy. Age 25
Dallas Cowboys nose tackle Josh Brent was arrested early Saturday morning for intoxication manslaughter after a one-vehicle accident that killed teammate Jerry Brown.
Another tragedy in the NFL.

Condolences to his family.
I was working on my 2013 list and it made me check over my current list. I think you’ve undercounted my score for this year. For one thing, I’ve had four “hits” in 2012.
Robin Gibb (b 22 December 1949) singer - d 20 May 2012 - 38 pts
Geoffrey Hughes (b 2 February 1944) actor - d 27 July 2012 - 32 pts
Etta James (b 25 January 1938) singer - d 20 January 2012 - 27 pts
George McGovern (b 19 July 1922) politician - d 21 October 2012 - 10 pts
My total is 107 points.
My list.
You are absolutely correct Little Nemo. My apologies for neglectling to add Hughes and his points. And not only did you advance in rank, Hughes was a unique pick for you as well!
See, that’s why it’s good to point monthly totals. I try to keep this sucker accurate but I’m not God, just a humble DeathMistress.
So Little Nemo advances from 52nd to 31st place.
Sir Patrick Moore has died, a unique pick for Paul Parkhead.
He was a unique pick? Cool. I thought one of the other Brits would have chosen him.
He had heart problems as a kid, served in the RAF during the war and lived to be 89. How 'bout that.
Yeah, he was remarkable. I found his politics odious, but his passion for astronomy was inspirational.
Wikipedia has her dead already. Her web site is offline (503 error).
He seems to have hated the Germans as much as my Grandmother hated the Japanese. His fiance has killed whilst driving an ambulance in a bomb raid.
So, when do we begin posting our thirteen wild ass guesses, hopes dreams and fantasies, oh Most Wonderful Death Mistress?
Any time you want!
But I’m waiting until my birthday. It’s December 31st. I really love chocolate!
I keed, I keed!
There’s the idea, have a server to your personal webpage inside your pacemaker…, and everyone gets a pacemaker…
Reinhold Weege, who wrote for Barney Miller before creating the sitcom Night Court, has died at the age of 62.
Jeff Millar, who penned the comic strip “Tank McNamara”, passed away at 70.
Also, here’s a page-specific link to the Jenni Rivera obituary.
Hugo Chavez.
So, will I get points this year, or must I keep him on My Little List for 2013?
I had both Etta James and Miguel de la Madrid (was he a unique pick?) in 2012, so my own total should be:
74(tie) lel 50 2 (?)
Are we supposed to post updates or amendment requests here? Thanks!
Sitar master Ravi Shankar (Norah Jones’ dad to you younger folks) dies at 92.
Ah shit. I was just talking about Ravi to my Indian car pool buddy last week.
92 ain’t bad though…
