Hey Don Cardi, I was referring to the Teamsters leader, as its on the same day as Van Johnson.
Now where do you want that damm shinebox! My sincerest apologies Lompac. I was not aware that the television/movie actor Ron Carey died in 2007 and that you were actually referring to the former Teamster Ron Carey. A very interesting person with a pretty interesting story in regards to his Teamster days / trial. As for what you should do that shinebox.....well I suggest that you use it on whatever part of your body that gives you the greatest thrill!!!  Your right, SC. You wanna put it there. Be careful what you wish for....you just might get it!

Sadly, I just saw in People that Paul Benedict passed away on 12/1.  He was the Godfather-teaching prof in The Freshman, and of course "Harry Bentley" in The Jeffersons. I saw him on Broadway opposite Al Pacino in Hughie in '96. RIP!

When does the 2009 pool begin? That depends if SC wants to do it again. If not, then I'd gladly take a stab at it. Either way, lists would have to be in before midnight on Jan 1, 2009.

Thanks -- I've updated the lists on Page 6... Thanks, but there are still a lot changes/updates needed. I, for instance, have 7 kills... Preacher Roe (who was also on Don Cardi's list) died but he wasn't credited to us yet. BTW - Whaddya gonna do next year? All your WWI vets are dead. ABTW - You didn't credit ME for Studs Terkel either.

You didn't mention you had'm.  A full audit will be needed, that's why I encouraged everyone to check all their picks with wikipedia as we wind down. The Page 6 list is otherwise based on what's been posted here. One thing's for sure for next year: Everyone has to alphabetize!  As for me, I'll have to work on WWII next

I remember the mystery surrounding Deep Throat, especially after the movie, there was a lot of speculation. It's good that at least Mark Felt got to come out (so to speak) and identify himself before his death. But, why or why did they pick Deep Throat for a code name?  I would venture to say the only deep throat most people knew or heard of was Linda Lovelace. Which btw, I didn't know she died. TIS

Supposedly because he was their "deep background" for information. Don't forget - the movie "Deep Throat" was at its most popular time when all this was going on with the Washington Post and Watergate.

I recall Woodward once saying that the codename "Deep Throat" was a direct reference to the movie, and as SC said, it involved deep information.

Another one for DT: Deep Throat (W. Mark Felt, not Linda Lovelace who passed in '02) has died. I am on fire this month after eleven months of nothing.

So when does The New Dead Pool start?
 He - (Simón Bolívar) - was shaken by the overwhelming revelation that the headlong race between his misfortunes and his dreams was at that moment reaching the finishing line. The rest was darkness. "Damn it," He sighed. "How will I ever get out of this labyrinth!" So what’s the labyrinth? That’s the mystery isn’t it? Is the labyrinth living or dying? Which is he trying to escape - the world, or, the end of it?

So when does The New Dead Pool start? When do you think it might start?  You don't need a new thread to guess that I need your picks PM'ed to me in 10 days... 'night!
