Harry Anderson, aka Judge Harry Stone from Night Court, has passed final sentence.

Hits close to home, as I saw him do a magic show at the Wortham Center in Houston. He did this geek trick, as part of his show

 

He used to work a shell game on 6th with Jules Caplan, notorious Austin landlord, and balloon clown.

Deathwatch list needs Prince Philip, Don Rumsfeld, and El Chapo.

Barbara Bush passed away.  No one on here had her, but I can't imagine GHW being around much longer now.  RIP to her.

Kirk Douglas is 102.  So is Olivia de Havilland. 

Those two are wrecking lots of death pools.

This year I'll read the instructions better.  Didn't see the "under 100" part.  But still...I think they have Kirk Douglas and Olivia de Havilland on a machine just to keep them alive.  Either that or they are both bots...

13 DAYS REMAINING.

People should pay me to put them on my list. 

I always pick a bunch of old fuckers, and it seems like they never die. 

We're playing this game at work for 2019.  The key is the scoring system.  Subtract their age from 100 and that's the point total you get for each celebrity.  Bob Dole would get a measly five points but Pete Davidson brings an impressive haul of 75 points.  You're rewarded for either risk taking and getting one big total or trying to be a volume player but Betty White, Jimmy Carter, and Bob Barker.

You don't get any points for Kirk Douglas.  He's 102 for God's sake.
