Celebrity Death Pool 2007
Since there's already been a list by the lovely Sundae Girl for 2007, I guess we better start a dedicated thread.

Quite right too - blame Christmas over-indulgence on me not having the sense to think of it myself!
Fidel Castro Margaret Thatcher Nicole Ritchie Patrick Moore Norman Wisdom Mickey Rooney Frank Carson Zsa Zsa Gabor Gaddafi Islom Karimov The celebs let me down last year, so I've featured politicians more heavily this year. I feel I can at least count on Castro (and how often do you get to say that?)

Death penalty deaths don't count. Milton Friedman died last year so I think I won, but we'll have to figure it out.
Let me see who I choose this year... Abe Vigoda Michael J. Fox Billy Graham Charlton Heston Muhammad Ali Mickey Rooney Peter Falk Peter O'Toole Fidel Castro Andy Griffith

Saddam Hussein is dead today, but he didn't count.

I'm gonna go with Betty Ford on this one. The spouse usually dies within a year or two of the other, expecially after a long marriage.
I'd put money on Nancy Reagan as well. Paris Hilton is on my wish list though.

Jerry Springer will be killed by a crazed fan.
Lindsay Lohan will be fatally injured in a car wreck on her way to an AA meeting. You heard it here first, folks.

I wouldn't mind Chucky Heston and Rush biting the big one, but the others don't move me one way or the other. It seems that who dies is pretty arbitrary, so I went fairly random, with some emphasis on poor lifestyle choices and poor health. You never know....
