Which one do you mean? The Senator, the TV/radio presenter, the basketball player or another?

And one more question: If a celeb, born say 1. August 1950, kicks the bucket on 31. July 2010, do we score 41 or 40 points? - In other words, does the plain year of birth count, or do we take into account the number of years (arithmetically) fully lived? :3_eyes:

That would be 41 points unless we have a tie. Then we'd go by fractions of years.

I'm pretty Dick Clark refers to the radio, television, and movie star and producer famous for American Band Stand, TV Bloopers, and New Year's Rockin' Eve.

Radar, who died and made you rule-keeper extraordinaire? Whoever it was, I bet they were on one of my lists!

"The Hoff" gives me hope that Ozzie Osbourne will live forever... in a kinda-sorta reality/fantasy show kinda way.

That's just the way we've always done it. I mean if everyone wants to change it for next year, we could try to all hash that out.

I don't really care: I only started playing last year I think.

My memory tells me there were questions about scoring earlier this year, so "this is the way WE'VE always done it" didn't seem to be an option.

Carry on, my deadward sons.

It's age. On July 31, 2010, the celeb would be 59. 100 minus 59 equals 41 points.

OK, what if a celeb was born in, say, 1920. Then he dies in 2008. Then he is reincarnated as a Jonas Brother, and dies again in 2010. Which age should we use?

reincarnated in 2008, dies in 2010? - You score a whopping 98 points :eek:

Well, isn't that the proper age range for one of those guys?

(in head: darnit, should've thought that one through a bit more.)

42.5

4:20

No Jonas brother is a celeb. I call.

Well, if John Cletus Seymore Poindexter Clive Marvin Hopplestetter the Turd is a celeb, then a Jonass Brother is a celeb.

I don't think I've ever done a wish list, but I will give it a shot. My true wish list has thousands of names, but I'll try to narrow it down to 10 for the year.

1. George W. Bush
2. Dick Cheney
3. Condoleezza Rice
4. Donald Rumsfield
5. John Ashcroft
6. John Roberts
7. Sam Alito
8. Tony Perkins
9. Glenn Beck
10. Rush Limbaugh

These are among the most disgraceful people ever to sully the name of America and the world would be better off without them.
