Hold that thought....

Topic: Death Score
In what has been the busiest day in Mortfolio's three-year history, we have two celebrities passing away on the same day. So the leadership of Mortfolio '06 changes intraday!
See below for Lou Rukeyser. See here for Earl Woods.
Woods, whose DNA is responsible for one of the centuries finest athletes in Eldrick "Tiger" Woods, succumbed to a long battle with prostate cancer today at age 74.
In the spirit of brevity, here's the math:
SOLO Hit for Buying the Farm : 25 pts Age (125-74)= 51 Confidence Kicker *1.0 for a total of 76 pts.
Updated Standings (man, my fingers are sore from all this typing):
Buy the Farm 182 - Reave (solo), Woods (solo) Mark M 148 - Winters, Rukeyser Brian G 114 - Rukeyser Vince R 105 - Coretta Scott King (solo) Rat Pack 93 - Winters
Gotta give love to the Farm for two solo hits in five months!
What have we learned today? Eat more vegetables. Per Dr. Mehmet Oz in You: The Owner's Manual, 60% of cancer can be attributed to diet, and 75% of diabetes can be attributed to nutrition.
