I don't think any of us had him but Phil Everly of the Everly Brothers passed away. frown Damn, talk about a blast from the past. My older brother had some of their records. In particular, "All I Have to Do Is Dream" comes to mind. Remember "Wake Up Little Susie?" Geez, I know there are more but my mind is blank right now. Really sorry to hear it. Oh, and what about "Cathy's Clown?"

and TIS, don't forget, "Bye Bye Love". Simon and Garfunkel were influenced by the Everly Bros. harmonies. I have a DVD of S&G at the Garden from about 8 years ago and the Everly Bros. were part of the show. Theirs is a sound that has really never been duplicated.

Very true. The Everly Brothers created melodies that will be enjoyed forever, and they are one of the pillars of modern music.

Sad way to start the year with the death of Everly. They were true pioneers. Without them there would be no Beatles and no Simon and Garfunkel.

I did not enter the pool this year, but if anyone left Ariel Sharon off their list, that would have been a big mistake. I would have also put George H.W. Bush on the list. He's not looking too hot.

I posted what you had left over from last year, DT. Sharon was disqualified last year, btw, and everyone -- except you -- has Bush Sr on their lists. wink

No one wants the old guy to die, he's just very sick, so he belongs on the list.

Thanks Geoff. I think you rolled me over last year also, but I only got a few right. Maybe if I just keep the same list every year they will all die at once and I'll win by default!

Thanks for posting my list for me. I was at my inlaws for a few days my FIL was in the hospital and I didn't have my laptop with me so I couldn't update my list. So what are the chances I can update it? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

Seeing that Mig is a member here for ten years and she has actively participated in this game for a number of years I think she should be allowed in (despite being late). BUT, if she is allowed to enter she must be marked with an asterisk. grin

He was discharged from the hospital last year I believe. Not to get too off track but wasn't Bush Sr. more moderate than Reagan? There was a slight divide between the two during the early days of Reagan's administration

Okay, for the next 24 hours, anyone whose list was rolled over from last year and is incomplete, PM me your replacements -- but obviously no one who's died before tomorrow. wink

Bush was way more moderate. He called Reaganomics "voodo." It was quite a surprise when he got the Veep nood in '80. Then again Reagan may have been less right wing that he claimed to be because he names James Baker ( a Bush man) chief of staff.

In his term as president Bush cut a deal to raise taxes, and it probably cost him the election to Clinton because the GOP "base" never forgave him for that.

Larry Speakes, 74, died. You'll remember him as Reagan's press secretary, who replaced James Brady, who was shot in the head during the assassination attempt on Reagan 2 months into his term. Brady is still alive and will turn 74 this year.

Died in House

I thought the Dead Pool folks might be interested in the website. You can find out if someone died in your house. I heard it advertised on the radio this morning. What next?

RIP The Professor.

Pretty sure the only Gilligan's Island cast members still alive now are Ginger (Tina Louise) and Mary Ann (Dawn Wells).

Dave Madden also has died according to TMZ....he played the part of Reuben Kincaid on the 70's tv show The Partridge Family. Madden was 82 and according to TMZ he died of heart and kidney failure.
