Default 2008 Dead Pool

It's that time of year when we predict the celebrities and other famous peoples inevitable release from this world...

Throw out your top seven...

1) Abe Vigoda(not "Fish"...."Tessio") - turns into a clump of dust
2) Ayman Al-Zawahiri(#2 Al Qaeda) - Bunker buster express route
3) George Herbert Walker Bush - Read my lips...No 2009
4) Billy Graham Sr.(Evangelist) - Time to talk to your boss
5) Jerry Lewis(entertainer) - pick an organ failure...any organ failure
6) Charton Heston(entertainer) - the path of Reagan
7) Elizabeth Taylor(entertainer) - From "white diamonds" to "white light"

How charmingly depressing!
Don Rickles-tell that one to God and see if he laughs
Ditto Charlton Heston
forgive me if any of these people are already dead. I don't get out much

Betty White-she's 85

Sit up straight and laugh real hard.

Off topic, but Rickles had one of THEE funniest line I've ever heard...

Just walking through the audience, he asked a guy his nationality...he said "Fillipino"...

Rickles said "I spent 2 years in the jungle hiding from your father."...

Yes there is nothing better than the old Jewish comedians they spit out one liners so fast that they are quite often missed entirely.

Kissinger


James Garner. I like him but he looked pretty frail the last time I saw him.


Cheney. This is not political opinion. Its just that he has been napping a lot and has a bad ticker.

Tony Snow.

McGovern.

I afraid that Mrs. Ford and Mrs. Reagan don't look so healthy. I think that President Carter will hold on for a few more years and thus so will Mrs. Carter.

I am also a bit concerned for the health of President George HW Bush and his wife.

Since I have respect for the previously mentioned individuals, there will be no funnies about them from me.

Vice President Cheney isn't well. A heartbeat from the Presidency and a heartbeat from the grave.

I think we will have an opportunity to pry the gun out of Mr. Heston's cold dead hands soon enough.

Chief Justice John Roberts... Just to 'shake it up'.
