David S. Ware

Is he/has he been ill recently?

yeah, i think he needed a kidney transplant

Wow, didn't know that. Just looked it up, and apparently he got a kidney and came through ok: http://njmonthly.com/articles/lifestyle/a-gift-of-life-and-music.html

(sorry, didn't mean to mess up your dead pool; was just surprised to see his name on the list, as I didn't know he'd been sick)

He's been a couple years post-transplant -- makes him (sadly) a cancer risk.

Jimmy the etc - Liz Dawn ISN'T DEAD? Good choice.

I picked her first!

Ailsa, sorry. whatever you say- though with Liz Dawn, hmm, I kinda remembered she died weeks after Vera died. Strange.

Nah, is ok, just noticed jimmy's list was quite similar to mine :)

I wasn't expecting her to last long when she left, but she's still hanging on in there - she came back briefly last year when Jack was written out.

I kind of want to make one of these for game of thrones season 2 characters

pretty easy to cheat at that tho

yeah if it weren't for that though!

jaymc, could you please revise my list? I would like to substitute Kanye West for Marie Fredriksson. Thanks!

Gah, I forgot Geoffrey Hughes, despite picking him the last couple of times. And also Etta James, despite reading the news. Ah well.

Well, you have until the 9th to make corrections.

The prosecution in Egypt just demanded the death penalty for Mubarak...

so is it cheating if i put him in? aw screw it that isnt any fun.

Yeah, I haven't even started inputting lists yet (that'll wait until the weekend), so feel free to make any corrections.

I'd like to put in for Mubarak and will get back to you abt the others later

Just to prove my originality, 15 thus far unmentioned picks:

Jean Shrimpton
Imelda Marcos
George Martin
Warren Buffett
Robert Crumb
Astrid Kirchherr
Jimmy Webb
Jody Stephens
Burt Bacharach
Jack Welch
Grace Slick
G. Gordon Liddy
Sandy Koufax
Wendy Carlos
Mike Love

And one last prediction: Pete Townshend will live to be 100.

That's him screwed then!

crumb will outlive us all

I actually thought Jack Welch was already dead, but I was confusing him with Don Geiss.

None of mine died, it's like a breath of life to everyone I nom. Avoided nomming Thatch for this very reason.

Dammit, just missed the podium.

lol, i am officially the worst at this

I actually feel sort of shitty for doing so well!
