Herman Wouk.

He seems too content in his recent interviews.

John McCain

Joanne Woodward

George Herbert Walker Bush

I have been if thinking of one of my favorite Jazz vocalists a lot lately, for some reason.

Helen Merrill is 88. She was very famous in the 1960’s but is probably pretty much forgotten these days. I hope I am wrong to worry about her but January is a cruel month.

Below is a link to my favorite of her albums, which also has a photograph of her as the cover art.

And here is a YouTube of the song ‘Natural Sounds’ from that album.

I’ll stick with Robert Mugabe. Just because he’s not in power doesn’t mean he doesn’t deserve a long, long rest.

OK Dick Van Dyke!!!

Ruth Ginsberg

Burt Reynolds

The terrible lizard Jiang Zemin, of something stolen body parts cannot cure.

For the Deep State, the use of the “Coercive Organs of State Power” to drive President Trump from office was the “Plan B” if Hillary lost. I suspect that “Plan B+” will be the termination with extreme prejudice of President Trump by those same “Coercive Organs of State Power” or contractors thereof.

I am not feeling very generous or trusting of the United States Government or either supposedly different political party.

Jimmy Carter

Clive James

For this round I will again choose the Ding Dong Gentleman, Leslie Phillips. Comic actor Who has been in over 150 films and television shows. Known early in his career for the Carry On and the Doctor film series.

Portrayed many “Lechery Toffs” throughout his long career

Memorable phrase “Ding Dong, you’re not wrong”

Another early example of Leslie’s work is the 1957 film “The Smallest Show On Earth”:

Jeeze. I travel south to sit in the sun or drive around in a car with the top down and the world spins on. Ok. Desmond Tutu.

Actress Charlotte Rae — “Difff’rent Strokes,” “Facts of Life”

Ramsey Clark. Please. We have waited long enough.

Buzz Aldrin. I hope to be proven wrong, but I may as well play the numbers.

Walter Koenig AKA Pavel Chekov (“Nuclear Wessles!”)

Louis Farrakhan

Ed Asner

Noam Chomsky

Steve Perry

One day Gordon Brown will bite it and I will laugh.

One of the great ones…

Keith Jackson, who was widely regarded as the voice of college football by several generations, died late Friday night, his family said. He was 89. RIP

Ah, me…Oncet more unto the breach, dear friends – once’t more…

As evah: Bad ol’ Insaney-Janey Fonda, the Thinking-Man’s Typhoid Mary…

May she meet-up impactfully with The Cable-Car Of Deadly Destiny – c’mon, dollink, jes’ step right on out thar, an’ shake hans’ with The Green Ripper…(been re-reading John D. McDonald of late, can you tell?)

If I can’t win, I tend to favor MrsMGunz‘s pick – everybody’s gotta go sometime, an’ HilLIARy’s wayyyy-y-y overdue…

Roslyn carter

Former Senatorial wanker Al Franken, in a water closet with a plastic bag over his head and pants around his ankles.

Wozzisname. World’s coming to an end. Ei of ie in the name. Drawing a blank. Fuckit. Ted Turner.

Keith Richards.

Henry Kissinger (Heinz Alfred Kissinger), another former US Secretary of State.

Jane Fonda’s long term partner has Alzheimer’s, so she dumped him.

@Ric Fan –

I trust you realize that my downvote is not for you or your reporting, but for Ms. Fonda’s cruelty.

Hal Holbrook.

Yes, he’s still alive. No ill-will or anything just playing the numbers For The Win!

Betty White, probably doing something insane for a woman of her age, like skydiving, stock car racing, or the running of the bulls.

John McCain’s mom. Roberta

No access to my records, which are seriously out of date.
So: roving far afield for someone I can be pretty sure is fresh, and old.

Hall of Fame college football coach Hayden Fry.

Little Richard.

Rupert Murdoch

Naomi Parker Fraley died Saturday. Identified by a scholar as the inspiration for Rosie the Riveter, the iconic female World War II factory worker was 96.

RIP, Simon Shelton Barnes, aka, Tinky Winky.

Sci-fi/fantasy writer Ursula Le Guin has carked it at 88.

And since my previous picks have been poached, I’ll go with Beverly Cleary this round.

Peter Strzok, FBI Sooper-Genius. No doubt by suicide. The only question being by whose hand – the Clinton camp, the FBI Secret Society or Valerie Jarrett and the former Boy King?

Oldest man just passed at 113. RIP

Stan Lee

Scott, I think ol’ Stan was fooling…

RIP, Dennis Edwards

It was the third of september
That day I’ll always remember, yes I will
’cause that was the day that my daddy died

Never had a chance to see him, no
Never heard nothing but bad things about him
Mama, I’m depending on you to tell me the truth
Mama just hung her head and said

papa was a rollin’ stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone….

John Mahoney has passed. He was a winner…RIP
http://tinyurl.com/ycp5z8ro

That’s sad. He was only 77. I first began noticing Mahoney in the 80s. He had a supporting role in almost everything. A fine actor. Will miss him.

Zimbabwe’s Morgan Tsvangirai

FBI informant Douglas Campbell, who just blew the whistle on Uranium One. I expect him to succumb to Arkancide within a few weeks.

Legendary singer Vic Damone passed away Sunday at the age of 89. His family said he died at Mount Sinai Medical Center in Miami Beach. RIP

I was just at that hospital on Friday. My brother-in-law is supervising the building of a huge addition on to it.

Mort Walker — a blast from the past. I was a big Beetle Baily fan as a kid.

Vic Damone – rememeber when the eyetalians had the pop music biz cornered? Read his wiki entry. He and Trump were good friends. His wife who predeceased him by a 2 years left him 900 million bucks.

Hell, if I’d known Vic (almost a billionaire) Damone was in the hospital, I’d have stopped by to wish him well…and share my checking account number with him…

Comedian Marty Allen has died. He was 95. RIP funny man.

All these childhood memories — dead.

Bill Dana died last summer. Remember him? Jose Jimenez, the astronaut. Local radio station played that skit. Laughed my ass off. Would be banned today, of course.

Ginsberg again.

No new Dead Pool round? has Morgan Tsvangirai risen from the dead?

Woops! Sorry, Carl…I didn’t see you’d made a play.

Hm. Tsvangirai. I suppose I’ll have to take him. I have heard of him, after all. But you’ll have to wait another week to don the black robe and swing the sickle; I have just concluded my posting week.

No problem. He was one of the few honest African politicians. Probably few people in the U.S.A. have heard of him.

RushBabe wins! Billy Graham has passed at 99. RIP

Wow, some no-one-who-has-ever-heard-of or cares about 3rd world tin-horn dictator pimps Billy Graham….shame…shame.

ok, so maybe he wasn’t a dictator….

Billy Graham dies, and my first reaction is to check Weasel’s dead pool. …

/so ashamed
//also disappointed that I chose Hillary

First thing I did too, MrsMGunz.

We’re so macabre.

@ “thefritz … Wow, some no-one-who-has-ever-heard-of or cares about 3rd world tin-horn dictator pimps Billy Graham….shame…shame.”

I’ve never heard of most of the choices here.

Maybe God took out the Zimbabwean chap simply to prevent dick-winning on the occasion of Billy Grahams passing .

Condolences to stymied RushBabe. )-:

Fritz, Looking at the nationalities of the choices for this round of the Dead Pool, I see that out of a total of 63, 53 (84%) are from the U.S.A., 4 from the U.K. and 6 from other countries.

Do you think it should be renamed the U.S. Dead Pool?

Of the 53 Americans, I had never heard of 21, and 6 of the others I recognised the names but didn’t really know anything about them.

There were 3 Africans – Desmond Tutu from South Africa and Robert Mugabe and Morgan Tsvangirai from Zimbabwe. Tsvangirai was Mugabe’s arch rival and was Prime Minister for 4 years.
