The Celebrity Death Pool 2012

In the words of Dick Clark, “Happy dew year.”

Happy Dew Year indeed Sir.

Not going to say I’m saddened, but this one will take a while to digest.

“” Things the Deathpool will say upon Dick Clark’s Death. “”

[[Cue Pyramid Music]]

Meeko, I will save a place in Hell for you.

Ah well, RIP Mr. Clark … fortunately (for me, that is) you were still on my list for 2012. He has not looked well for some years, though, so it was not unexpected, I believe. RIP.

There is no way you meant that as anything other than a compliment.
And I approve.

Even so, I botched the punchline it would have been better at “Things the Deathppol might Say.”

Can’t wait to see the Dick Clark hologram do the new year countdown.

I actually was thinking this too. Then again, CNN kinda has both stories on the front page.

Where’s his painting? It’s obviously no longer in his attic . . . :smiley:

I’ve been expecting via celebrity death beeper all day for Gibbs or the Bomber guy to die and Dick Clark surprises us all.

So long, Dick, thanks for all the music!

Hey - I just realized! I got points! YAY!

Here I was feeling giddy about my sure thing Levon Helm points and Dick Clark rains on my parade.

Yes, but Walkabout grabbed 32 points for Young-Woo Kang, making quite a leap up in the standings, to 7th place. Clark spread some points around and got a number of players on the board, but he didn’t change the standings all that much.

He should be worth more, being that he was the world’s oldest teenager.

No, no, none of that.
You’re trying to pad your points.
Put down the remote, and step away from the Oldies DVD player.

I have to admit, I actually thought he was older than 82. I would have guessed 82 when he had the stroke, which would make him about 89 now. Huh.

Paul Bogart, who directed nearly 100 episodes of All in the Family, has died at the age of 92. Bogart won five Emmy Awards over his career, including one for the AitF two-parter “Edith’s 50th Birthday”, in which Archie Bunker’s wife confronted a man who was attempting to rape her.

It figures. I pulled Dick Clark off the list.
