I do have a lot of little niche passions and know nothing about sports or sporting people. I know nothing about popular culture and was born deep in the first half of the 20th century so I think I have a peculiar sense of fame forged by the Truman and Eisenhower eras.

I submitted a list.

I sent you a message with a team. I know that you don't need to accept it so late. Thank you.

I submitted three teams: 1 is doomed to end with Nil points: "Poets Passing" all poets but so many Americans who will not get a Brit Obit No. 2 is Bangers and Mash. It's secret theme is people who are unlikely to be virgins. No. 3 is Diet of Worms, a little dip into fantasy land and some very aged venison and pheasant. I used that Team name years ago and hope that nobody else has taken it up.... Seriously, I created these teams to amuse myself and not to win and I wonder if that creates too much work for the DDP Team? I would like to know if these types of teams feel like frivolous lawsuits to you?

I did change his name to Leo Marx. I am very sorry. I was using two internet sources which are not updated. I hope Wikipedia is accurate.

Sir Antony Sher did a remarkable Othello a while back. Perhaps the very best in-person appearance I have seen. And I've seen batches of Cumberbatches and masses of McKellens. I think the best comic role I saw in person was Rik Mayall as "The Inspector General".

Ok, I will review it. I made up the list without looking at any other list. Thank you for the correction.

Sorry. My cognition was on walkabout. I've replaced the doppelganger of Brustein with James Ivory. Thank you for your patience.

I have started a DSCDP funeral home. https://www.dougstanhopescelebritydeathpool.com/Director/Home?viewingId=3251 Here are the rules in full: Final Jeopardy Funeral Parlor: In order to join, you must provide me with an email address and you should take Pay Pal. Give me the email address that uses Pay Pal! February: First Royal Family member of the month (all monarchies around the world are considered, even dormant ones such as Greece). If no royal dies this month, prize swings to March and so forth $25 prize March You have the hit with the first celebrity of the month with a first name starting with C $30 prize April: : First score for celebrity who has at least three of the EGOTS (consult https://ew.com/awards/30-stars-who-almost-have-an-egot/ and make sure you know https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_who_have_won_Academy,_Emmy,_Grammy,_and_Tony_Awards $75 prize May: First Capricorn corpse of the month (born between Dec 22 and Jan 20) $15 prize June: First musical star of the month (all musicians and composers of all musical genres count) $40 prize July: First under-50 woman to die in July $20 prize August: First under-50 man to die $10 prize September: First celebrity born under the sign of Virgo to die: birthdates from August 23-September 22 $45 prize October: First writer to die (note that writers must have a published poem, article, or other work that is not self-published. A blog will not count.) $35 prize November: lowest score in the home thus far $100 prize December: Austen, Beethoven, Kandinsky, Zoltán Kodály, Sir Noël Peirce Coward Memorial Birthday Awards: You have a death on December 16th 2020. If nobody wins, the prize will move to December 17th etc. $50 prize Months will start on Eastern Time each month. Some rewards will be instantly awarded but others will wait until the end of the month to determine in which case money will be awarded on the 1st or 2nd of the subsequent month—for example, if you have Virgo die on August 31st, it will not count. If you have a Virgo die on September 1, you are a winner I will use the gender that appears to be current: for example, Chaz Bono is a man and Caitlyn Jenner is a woman In case of ties, all winners will be paid. If the money is too substantial, you might need to share a partial payment with others. I am the final arbiter. Guarantee: I will NEVER select myself as a winner. If I win in any month, the runner up gets the prize. The funeral home closes on January 31st. I will evict people who get combative! This is for the ghoulish-spirited yet pleasant people.

Hi Skinny, I would be interested. My family would be interested. I would be honoured to work once again with the winner of my 2019 "Compost Heap". I sent you an email and then decided it might be more proper to write here. Let me know!
