Oops! I'm stupid…

Another fine, participatory post by Lit's most impertinent attention hoar.

There is nothing in my current performance to indicate it, but what if I WIN and yet am myself deceased this time next year and cannot collect the prize.

I fully expect the car to be awarded to my estate, or there WILL be trouble.

 

[JohnnySavage]

If anyone wants a guaranteed trip around the Sun in 2016, I'm selling spots on my list. Nobody on my list ever dies.

 

[JKendallDane]

Unless John Glenn and the surviving moonwalkers start dropping over one after another before New Years Eve, it's looking like I will be doing another C&P of my picks for 2014 and 2015. Third time's a charm...right?

I will make a change on my bonus pick, just not sure who it will be yet. Chris Christie is only dead as far as his run for the White House. (Would it be a double bonus if I guess that he kills Trump? )

 

[Aquagal]

I did okay for my second year trying, I'm 4th! I'm either under Cleaver or behind him, not sure where that advantage is yet.

 

[RoryN]

I'm first! (But I also may edit before 1/1/16.)

Here's my list:

René Angélil
Sumner Redstone
Martin Crowe
Bryan Murray
Gordon Banks
Pat Harrington
Zsa Zsa Gabor
Billy Graham
S. Prestley Blake
Dwayne "Pearl" Washington

Bonus: Joey Feek

**

Also, some rule suggestions - take `em or leave `em:

*No ISIS / targeted terrorism individuals
*No death row inmates
*No one 100 years or older unless they have another claim to fame besides their age

 

[JKendallDane]

 

[RobDownSouth]

1. Roger Moore
2. Gene Wilder
3. Nancy Reagan
4. Billy Graham
5. Jerry Lewis
6. Kirk Douglas
7. Ron Paul
8. Carl Reiner
9. Carol Channing
10. Gary Player

Bonus: Joey Feek

(Zsa Zsa is not on my list, which doesn't bode well for the old gal)

 

[Wrong Element]

BONUS: Olivia de Havilland

She's not eligible -- bonus picks have to be under 60, and at this point, Olivia de Havilland is better known for never dying (she's been in my pool every year of the Obama presidency) than she is for winning two Oscars.

 

[Wrong Element]

Had to Google who Joey Feek is. How depressing.


My list. Eight so-far-fortunate repeaters, and two lucky newcomers:



1. Olivia (The Vampire) de Havilland
2. Herman Wouk
3. Billy Graham
4. David Rockefeller
5. Beverly Cleary
6. Kirk Douglas
7. Gordie Howe
8. Kay Starr
9. Mort Sahl
10. Chuck Berry

BONUS: Val Kilmer

 

[JKendallDane]

Let's try this again with a change to my bonus pick. (oops! )

Therefore, making their third consecutive appearances are:

1: Billy Graham
2: Walter Mondale
3: Betty White
4: John Glenn
5: Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin (Apollo 11)
6: Bob Dole
7: George HW Bush
8: James Lovell (Apollo 13)
9: Michael Collins (Apollo 11)
10: Alan Bean (Apollo 12)

BONUS: Justin Bieber (he's way overdue to do something fatally stupid)

 

[Wok]

1. Kirk Douglas
2. Jimmy Carter
3. Jerry Lewis
4. Nancy Reagan
5. Bob Barker
6. Henry Kissinger
7. Barbara Bush
8. Walter Mondale
