Status Update!
One more stiff since the last update, for Tex and Simon. So we have.....
#1. Tex - Etta James (10 points), Robin Gibb (9 points), Abdelbaset Mohamed al Megrahi (2 points), Jack Klugman (1 point) - Total: 4 stiffs, 22 points
#2. Jake - Robin Gibb (10 points), Etta James (9 points), Joey Paterno (7 points) - Total: 3 stiffs, 26 points #3. Diana - Etta James (10 points), Dick Clark (8 points), Robin Gibb (6 points) - Total: 3 stiffs, 24 points #4. Simon - Robin Gibb (9 points), Etta James (5 points), Jack Klugman (1 point) - Total: 3 stiffs, 15 points
Alice - Phyllis Diller, Etta James - 2 stiffs Ron - Robin Gib, Etta James - 2 stiffs Gordon - Etta James, Abdelbaset Mohamed al Megrahi - 2 stiffs
Anita - Yitzak Shamir - 1 stiff NOLA - Ravi Shankar - 1 stiff
The same caveats apply as on my last update: a) I may have compiled the points incorrectly, or missed a stiff or two. Best to check for yourself. b) The year isn't quite over yet. We still have a couple days left, in which things can ch-ch-change drastically.

Well, "Schwarzkopf" is German for "black head." So I'm guessing the Great Cosmic Dermatologist rubbed him out.

In Desert Storm he only had sand on his shoes, now he will have it on his face.

One last post-mortum for the year... Gerry Anderson, creator of my much beloved Thunderbirds series from the early 60's has had his strings cut... Lady Penelope is distraught

"Mixed Dementia"? Does that mean he was mixed-up about being mixed-up?

Well a whole month has gone by and nobody has been announced as having died in 2012 since this last update. So I think we can safely declare Tex the winner! Way to go, Tex!
