    Ideas And Possibilities For 2011

    Let me emphasize Artie Lange. The reason he was hospitalized was revealed to be a suicide attempt by stabbing.

    Rotten Dead Pool

    Option to swap team members is only available for the first month of a new team entry - beyond that all picks are locked and you have to run with what you have. PS so who's in your team? Well, currently... Steven Adler, Algirdas Brazauskas, Muhammad Ali, Stephen Hawking, Dennis Hopper, Don Imus, Rush Limbaugh, Simon MacCorkindale, Zelda Rubinstein, Gloria Stuart. Basically I included the DDP picks I was very confident in, and the people who I really wanted in my DDP, but couldnt fit. But this list may very well change.

    Original Madtv cast member Artie Lange has been hospitalized. There's also a photo gallery of 35 celebrity health scares underneath his article.

    Rotten Dead Pool

    Hey Rotten Ali, I just got a Rotten Dead Pool account and it apparently gives you the option to switch out your still-living picks whenever you want. Can't you swap Ariel Sharon with Zelda Rubinstein and have your full ten?

    Abdelbaset Al-Megrahi

    Huh? Did I miss anything? Al Megrahi got cancer while being imprisoned in Scotland, and was released when on the brink of death. Now that he has returned to his own country, he already outlived the three-months-expectation by two months. How that leads to the conclusion that being in Libya damages your health is unclear to me. Wouldnt that be funny if he really wasnt ill and his diagnosis was fake?

    Derby Dead Pool 2010

    Zelda's birthday was yesterday I think. That would be a lot of early points to anyone who was patient enough to wait on submitting til the last few days. When do we get to see the celebrity and team lists? Did anyone pick Jenn Lyon or Joe Jackson other than me?

    Health Care Reform

    Getting out of the Catholic high school would probably suffice. They tend to be a bubble. Spain is a predominantly Catholic nation, by the way. You need to define what you mean to "disobey the government." Kill someone? Yes, that is wrong. Protest the government's decisions and positions? Plenty of people do that all the time. I spent most of the last administration doing that. You have no control about what decade you grow up in, so there is no need to be ashamed or proud of that. I finished raising my kids in the last decade and I think it was better than the 1980's, which is when I came of age. Yea I knew about Spain's religions. And thats not what I meant. I mean for example, do you refrain from murdering someone in fear of the government or do you refrain because you know it wont get you anywhere better. Its just America's allegiance to these people in DC that scares me. I never believed that having leaders would make for a successful "team". If we just cut off this system, I believe everyone could live the life they want. But they have everyone spellbound, implying things like "money is necessary for a good life" and "if you dont listen to us, American Airlines will come and attack your hometown." I am impressed by your level of thought at 16 - are you at a Jesuit school? I do a lot of thinking and daydreaming during my classes. Thats what Ive always spent my class time doing. And I'll spend my whole life pursuing that dream of absolute freedom. I'm committed, I just had a class lesson a month ago about Moses and his 40 years finding the land of milk and honey. It made me think about how insignificant my life is and I could spend my entire life looking for freedom. Not necessarily a far off land, but having a social resolution in any land.

    She could've died already. You know how they sometimes delay death announcements a day or so.

    Here are some pictures from her at a Survivor viewing party from this weekend http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2496/419471..._3c2fd79d42.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2599/419470..._925b498fb9.jpg She looks like she is almost withering physically under the huge trenchcoat . ok. maybe not. I was going by what Coby Archa said about her cancer.

    Deathlist 2011

    I think I made three unique suggestions, so I'll address those... Ethan Zohn -has been reported recently that he is doing better and that his cancer has been "vaporized." Jenn Lyon -Sadly to say, she is a safe bet unless youre looking for a British obit. Gloria Stuart -As I said before, she turns 100 in 2010, so I thought it would be too ironic to miss, playing 100 year-old Rose in 'Titanic.' That's why she's in my 2010 DDP. Cant wait to play DDP for the first time, and maninblack, I'm sure you'll do a great job taking over. I've entered myself as "Star Dust."

    Oral Roberts

    ok so i got the sign up form. What is a joker? Why does one name slot say j1celebname2? If I have to be more specific with my celebrity, do i write a small note next to their name?

    I see now that Hasselhoff and Webber are too guessy, but not Imus or Lyon?

    Deathlist 2011

    Can someone tell me how to upload an avatar? And I guess this is my finalized list of suggestions. Could I get some feedback?: -Dick Clark (Born 1929) An American TV Personality Weakened by previous stroke -Kelsey Grammer (Born 1955) American Actor ('Cheers', 'Frasier', 'The Simpsons') Troubled life, stress, several family members murdered on different occasions, recent heart attack -David Hasselhoff (Born 1952) American Actor ('Knight Rider', 'Baywatch') Known for alcoholism -Don Imus (Born 1940) American Radio Host Diagnosed with stage 2 prostate cancer in early 2009, stress of multiple lawsuits and controversies -Andrew Lloyd Webber (Born 1948) English Composer Prostate Cancer -Jenn Lyon (Born 1972) 'Survivor' Contestant Stage 4 Breast Cancer

    Gloria Stuart must be added to the list. She played 100 year-old Rose in 'Titanic'. She'll be 100 next year. I feel irony coming on..

    Deathlist 2011

    Dick Clark - Most definitely should be on the 2010 list. Ethan Zohn - Will probably get a TV special for him and his girlfriend's tragic story. Kelsey Grammer - Recent heart attack, very stressful life (family murdered)
