OK, OK, I know what you are going to say - "She isn't famous enough!" But I think she may just sneak in being a member of the well-known 60s group Peter, Paul and Mary. WDYT? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/t...dio/4077751.stm Better make your mind up quick by the looks of it though! DWB

Thought I would start a thread on Dominick Dunne as I can't seem to find an existing one. Dunne is 83 years old and suffering from bladder cancer. He is a writer and investigative journalist. There was an article published recently where he said that the 2009 Oscars would probably be the last ones he'll see.

Anyone heard Paul Harvey lately? His voice isn't sounding too good. He might be a choice for the 2006 list, providing he is popular enough outside of USA.
