When King Charles is about to die in record time but you have -1 points on the "outlive King Charles" pool because some guy who can't drive thought it would be fun to kill Treat Williams

Beverly LaHaye, Mrs. Left Behind, dead at 94.

Apparently? I would hope he knew his wife had Alzheimer's when he filed for a conservatorship, otherwise he's probably on track to get it himself.

I'll be a good sheep and take Sven-Goran to replace Ralph Puckett.

He probably died in 2018 or so, as he was already dead by the time of his sister's obituary in January 2019. His parents lived to 101 and 104, what a flop he must feel like in Heaven for not making his ton.

Barbara Rush is a hit for MariNisia, congrats. New round: 1924: Art Schallock / Polly Allen Mellen 1925: Lester Crown / Martha Firestone Ford 1926: Charles Dolan / Stella Hackel Sims 1927: Fred Risser / Barbara Dane 1928: Sidney Kimmel / Pilar Pallete 1929: Jerry Adler / Vikki Dougan 1930: Ion Iliescu / Mary Costa 1931: Darryl Hickman / Ann Roth 1932: Joe Engle / Jenny Craig 1933: Michael Parenti / Cissy Houston

He does look pretty frail, but can't be doing that badly given he's still walking sans cane in the Speedway shots. That, and I doubt most 94-year-olds would look especially good papped anyway.

He nearly died of COVID in 2020 and looked extremely frail last April: https://youtu.be/rZGxgUFTPdU?t=811 He wasn't gonna make 90. Should have been on the list IMO. (Which I'm allowed to say given I argued for him to be picked and he's on my shadow list. )

He was on Wikipedia as "Dynoblex" and got blocked for using that Twitter account to add Stanley Baxter and Jeffrey Jones to the deaths in 2024 article. I had a feeling it was our Latin American friend based on the bad English, but since he was blocked without a fight I didn't figure he'd be bored enough to try signing up again and actually passing that account off as legit news. Oh well...

Babar writer Laurent de Brunhoff dead at 98.

Animator/cartoon writer Will Meugniot has prostate cancer and pancreatic cancer (he's currently 72, his IMDb and Wiki page don't have a DoB). I doubt he will QO, but could be a useful name for no-frills pool.

Wow. Hope Dungeons & Dragons designer Jimmy Ward doesn't bite it then.
