Mayan's Choice Award
Could we have a "Mayan's Choice" award this year to commemorate the end of time?
I think that any celebrity that dies on December 21, 2012 should receive double points.
Maybe the Mayans weren't predicting the end of the word, but suggesting the world wouldn't be worth living in without [insert celebrity here].
Any thoughts?There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.Comment

Some phrases associated with Ariel Sharon (wiki) --
persistent vegetative state
second stroke
cerebral hemorrhage
heart infection
pneumonia
14-hour operation
ventilator
necrotic large intestine
paralysis in lower body
lengthy coma
tracheotomy
This has been going on since his second massive stroke, which was in January 2006. They just won't let him die, so I took him off my list.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

Abe has been a Dead Pool pick for the past 30 years.
There's a reason no one else picked him.

We've come a long way. I think seeing what the DP is actually about over the past few years has tempered some attitudes.Originally posted by Robert Plomp View PostNobody outsiders complained so far about this pool that it is tasteless
It's as tasteful as tasteless can be.
