The Miser

Kennedy has had a "massive and long-lasting seizure".

Well that'll put a damper on the Democrats marquee day... Senator Robert Bryd has also been removed from the lunch due to health reasons.

I freely admit that I have no cite to back this up. But I'm happy to post rumors. According to my source, the National Guard of Florida is on alert status and is prepared to deploy in Miami to contain potential reaction to the announcement of Castro's death. We shall see.

That looks ominous... It certainly isn't good news for him.

I'll go with Swayze.

He was the star of a lot more than Mexican films. Give the man his due. He's incurred the Wrath of Khan... God speed Mr. Roarke! Welcome to Fantasy Island with its rich corinthian leather.

Actress Mariska Hargitay suffers collapsed lung. Notable since this is the second time its happened in the last month. http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/t..._hargitay_.html

This doesn't bode well for any 2 year predictions. Plus whenever DDT posts about someone they seem to cork it in the next 2 weeks.

Good scope...as always DDT.

Nowhere near that long. There's no confirmation they will restart chemotherapy and she sounds very weak indeed. Easter might be ambitious, she's ill enough to spiral down into a terminal phase methinks. I can't get over the fact that someone married her.

Cardinal Paul Shan Kuo-hsi has terminal lung cancer but seems to be doing okay for now.

Without shadow of a doubt, Clive Dunn. Hah, he seems fairly healthy to me.. Nontheless he will bring fame and good fortune. He is, after all, immortal.

DDT deserves to win. Nice job.

I drink...I always drink.

He may be iconic but he is also one of the world's biggest dicks to other people. Cherish his work, lots of talented people are jerks.

Who cares if he dies? I don't think even he cares.

I didn't see the horse guy. That will be very active.

My pick for 2009's least active thread.

Team Name= Misers Eunice Kennedy Shrive Wendy Richards Fidel Castro Umaru Yar'Adua James Garner Susan Atkins (joker) Anne Francis Abdul Aziz al-Hakim Robert Novak Abdel Basset Ali al-Megrahi Ted Kennedy Patrick Swayze Bobby Robson Steve Jobs Bingu wa Mutharika Seve Ballesteros Kim Jung-il Zeljko Sturanovi Annette Funicello Allen Shellenberger

Jesus......I spent 30 seconds on her site , and I feel sick . I am SOOOO glad I've picked this bitch.....There are very few people I actually wish death upon....but she's one I agree...a pick everyone can be proud of.

lots of evil on the list; he fits right in. Good pick.

I'll take a shot on Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi; although it could very well be Atkins.

This was a bad pick. Eli will make it to 100.

God bless us and keep us.
