ROUND TEN: die slower, I have to buy more dicks
Steve wins again, with KKK Grand Kleagle and Exalted Cyclops Robert Carlyle Byrd. He also won Round Nine, and was cheated out of Round Eight by my confusion over time zones, meaning he has actually won three times in a row. The officially makes steve a Very Scary Guy. Like that spooky damn cat in Rhode Island.
Okay — here we go:
1. Pick a celebrity. Any celebrity — though I reserve the right to nix picks I never heard of.
2. We start from scratch every time. No matter who you had last time, or who you may have called between rounds, you have to turn up on this thread and stake your claim.
3. Poaching and other dirty tricks are positively encouraged.
4. Your first choice sticks. Don’t just blurt it out this time, m’kay?
5. It’s up to you to search the thread and make sure your choice is unique. Popular picks go fast.
6. The pool stays open until somebody on the list dies. Feel free to jump in any time. Noobs, strangers, drive-bys and one-comment-wonders — all are welcome.
7. If you want your fabulous prize, you have to entrust me with a mailing address. If you don’t want the fabulous prize, you are a gentleman and a…well, a lady if you’re the other kind. It takes me forever to put them in the mail. Packages go by slow boat, typically take eight to ten weeks and arrive looking very sad and ill-used.
8. The new DeadPool will begin 6pm WBT (Weasel’s Blog Time) the Friday after the previous honoree pops his clogs.
The fabulous prize? Sweasel dot com’s unofficial sponsor, Aunty’s Spotted Dick, of course! Mmmmm…it’s dickalicious!

Not exactly Superman…
Faster than a speeding runnybabbit…
More powerful than a really strong runnybabbit…
Able to leap tall runnybabbits in a single bound…
Look, under that hedge! It’s — A WEASEL!
Yeah. Heh. My nephew bought a weasel shirt.
It’s the first I’ve seen one of my own products in person, on account of I am FAR too cheap to pay trans-Atlantic postage. I’m relieved to observe that the print quality and color fidelity looked good.
Okay, y’all — you know the drill. Show up tomorrow at 6pm Weasel Blog Time to make your pick in the Tenth Celebrity Dead Pool.
And if steve wins it a third time in a row, for god’s sake nobody sit next to him.
