  • Internet Island Topic Post #21.00: "End of the Year 2006"

    21.02: The Dead Pool:
    Without seeming to be morbid, celebrity and famous deaths always seem to come in threes. On Christmas, soul singer James Brown passed away, followed rather quickly by ex President Gerald Ford. Who's next? Fidel Castro?

    I DECIDED TO DO SOMETHING THAT I HADNT NORMALLY
    DONE WHEN DOING ONE OF THESE, BUT I GOOGLED DEAD POOL....

    THIS IS WHAT I FOUND!!!

    ROTTEN DEAD POOL

    THIS PAGE ACTUALLY LETS YOU PICK 10 PEOPLE
    OF WHOM YOU THINK WILL BE DYING THIS YEAR....

    CREEPY HUH?

    WELL, I GUESS I AM A BIT LATE ON ANSWERING
    THIS QUESTION, AS THE THIRD PERSON HAS DIED. 


    ART BUCHWALD DIED JUST LAST WEEK ON THE 17TH. 

    IN ALL HONESTY, I HAD VAGUELY HEARD OF HIM,
    BUT I COULDN'T HAVE TOLD
    YOU ANYTHING
    SOLID ABOUT HIM UNTIL I HEARD OF HIS DEATH.  

     
    ALSO, WE HAVE HAD A FOURTH CELEBRITY DIE
    ON JANUARY 19TH, THE THIRD MEMBER OF
    THE MAMA'S AND THE PAPA'S DIED

    WE HAVE NOW LOST  

    DENNY DOHERTY
     
    THESE ARE THE FOUR MOST RECENT CELEBRITY DEATHS

    I GUESS THAT JUST LEAVES ON QUESTION......

    WOULD YOU, COULD YOU, HAVE YOU
    EVER PARTICIPATED IN A DEATH POOL?

    THE MAMA'S AND THE PAPA'S VIDEOS

  • So does that mean two more celebs should pass?  I pick Fidel and some older actor.  LOL

  • it seems like all bad things always come in three's.
    I just saw your photos on your previous post...they are great! I love that dragonfly on the antenna!

  • Reminds me of the time I saw them in concert!

  • Dear Pogue,

    You sure are a bit late. I wrote the topic before anybody else had kicked the bucket. Saddam would have been next, because he was hanged on Dec. 29th. Before Buchwald and Denny, whom you mention, there were Yvonne de Carlo, (Lily on The Munsters) who kicked on  the 8th, and Italian film producer Carlo Ponti on the 9th. Just yesterday, E. Howard Hunt, of Watergate fame, died.

    Thanks for participating. I did get your entry listed, right before I put the new Topic up this morning.

    By the way, I couldn't find a "player" for the music to turn it off before watching the video. If you put video on your site, you should embed a music player in your "look and feel" page so that visitors can turn the music off .

  • art buchwald like puppies.

  • I found that link to be very interesting.  No, I don't think I'd participate in a death pool. 

  • I have always loved their music! No no death pool! Have a good one.

  • that is kind of scary. RYC: It't a documentary, you can google it if your interested,
