RIP Alan Young. Natural causes, dead at 96.

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/a ... -ed-816846

I knew he was in Ren And Stimpy as Haggis McHaggis, but had no idea he was the voice of Scrooge McDuck. Also played the role of Uncle Dave in Beverly Hill Cops III.

4 points to me.

Replacement pick: James "Whitey" Bulger

Kinda sounds like a sore loser. ;)

Kidding. I actually felt like scum for picking her. But I basically followed blackjack's lead.

Neat. The three that picked him were in the first five or so, I figured he was going to be on everyone's list.

Yes. Though I haven't picked someone for my Ali replacement yet, come to think of it.

Mick Mars and Malcolm Young are solid picks.

Had to doublecheck wikipedia for Jerry Stiller. I thought he died 5-6 years ago.
Saw Bob Newhart was trending and thought he assumed ambient temperature. Turns out he turned 87 today.

Happy Birthday Bob.

If no one on my list dies do I get bonus points for sucking?

If you put up a doughnut in a deadpool in 2016 I mean, honestly, that's shame enough.
