In 2004, the only person on my death list to die was Rodney Dangerfield - But keep in mind that I started it in June.. So for 2005, I'm starting it on February 16th.
Notables who've already died this year, I probably wouldn't have picked anyway. Johnny Carson's death took us all by surprise, for some reason I thought he would to be as old as Bob Hope. I wouldn't have picked Arthur Miller either.. I've replaced Rodney Dangerfield with Jake Lamotta, the Raging Bull. I was surprised to find that he wasn't dead yet, and he seemed like an obvious choice. The easy ones with known medical problems are: Thatcher, Pryor, Pope, and Heston.. Don Knotts is 81 this year and gerald ford and billy graham are getting up there as well - and I have a feeling their deaths will be like Carson's: sudden and unexpected.. The patriot in me cannot bear to remove Osama. My longshot remains Kirk Douglas.
