Thread Starter 
3 was the top last year with Judas Booth having Ted Kennedy, Farrah Fawcett, Jack Kemp. Anders also had Ted Kennedy Jack Kemp Walter Cronkite. Hope you don't end up on their list.

10 max. Zelda Rubinstein would be cheating.

I'll start it off.
1. Rush Limbaugh
2. Candy Spelling
3. Edward Furlong
4. Sen. Robert Byrd *(Strom Thurmond-see post 8)
5. Tony Stewart(NASCAR)
6. Artie Lange
7. Nancy Reagan
8. Stephon Marbury
9. Hugh Hefner
10. Tila Tequila

If I could only have 2 go it be 1 and 10.

Are we allowed to duplicate? Because I've spotted two Lindsey Lohans, two Nancy Reagans and two Amy Winehouses (one Winehouse was my Winehouse - *casts a stern eye at Dross*). Not that I think those two are gonna live out the year, mind you, but I'm just making a point about doubles.

This is why I thought we were allowed to have doubles. If not, I will amend my list.

Can't resist the ghoulish fun of a deadpool:

1. Robert Duvall (his proposed involvement in Gilliam's Don Quixote made him the first to come to mind)
2. Margaret Thatcher
3. Leslie Nielson
4. Silvio Berlusconi
5. Joseph Gordon-Levitt
6. Michael Schumacher
7. Chuck Berry
8. Steven Tyler
9. The guitarist from System of a Down
10. Jean-Luc Godard

Obviously I'll be happy if I'm wrong about most of these.

In alphabetical order.

3. Edward Furlong
4. Arthur Hiller
5. Peter Hyams
6. Artie Lange
7. Evo Morales
8. Joel Silver

10. Sam Worthington

...

Couple of these would make me genuinely sad. One of them represents wishful thinking.

And I still say Castro's already dead.

Stan Lee will die and come back in a supposed one-off special limited edition life only to be killed by Bane.

I actually bribed a friend of mine in college to get Jimmy Stewart the fuck off of his Death Pool list for 1987. I bought him two slices of pizza and a pack of smokes - we were broke college students, so that was the equivalent of forking over everything I could afford.

If you consider the bulls the wrestlers, then yeah, they're about even.

Now picture Vinny Mac as the matador and have yourself a good laugh.
