2 dead pools?

Regardless, its confusing to us mere humans...

okay. Most of you know how this works as we've done it for a few years now.

This thread gives you a chance to predict who will be around and who will be at room temperature by December 31, 2015.

Pick ten celebrities from any venue; entertainment, politics, Kardashian or otherwise. These are the folks you think will pass on during the upcoming year. Enter as many times as you like, but your FINAL entry will be the one that counts.

This is not who you would wish dead (that's too grizzly for consideration). Rather, pick who you think is has one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel.

Submit your entries in the next seven days. The contest closes December 31, 2014 at 12:00 midnight eastern time. The winner, if she chooses, will receive a piece of world famous Fiestaware China courtesy of me, if you PM me with a shipping address.

After that, this thread may act as the USMB obituary page.

Didn't you do this last night? And you had about 10 or 12 people on your list which you forecast would be dead sometime in 2015. Remember?

Not I!

I had Mickey Rooney, Chuck Noll and maybe three others in 2014.

Sorry about that...I couldn't remember who did it but knew someone did.

Since we ended up with two 2015 Dead Pool's, I've reported it to the mods and asked them to merge the two threads (looks like they've already done it).

Nosmo King, I didn't mean to step on your tradition, I just hadn't seen a dead pool thread yet.

George H. W. Bush needs to hold out for a few more days.

My best friend has a collection of games. He's kept everything in mint condition. My favorite game of his is The Becerley Hillbillies card game. It is two, two, two games in one. Hillbillies Bridge and the card game.

Whenever I held a pair of Ellie Maes, my poker face became a leer.
