Luther Vandross solo hit and a young'un
Mood:  celebratory
Topic: Death Score
Vince moves into second with the solo hit for the 54-year old Luther Vandross, who passed away Friday.
"I had heard that Vandross had a stroke last year, and while it was very sad for the world of music, I did make a note to myself to include him on the 2005 roster." said Vince. Vandross was in the 1.0 (lack of) confidence kicker spot, so just 71 for the age and 25 pt bonus for the solo to total 96.
CURRENT STANDINGS

Vince 178

Three tied at 82

Topic: Impending Death
"It's hard for me to believe this is the end," said the veteran preacher Billy Graham who is suffering from Parkinson's disease, fluid on the brain and prostate cancer, and has used a walker since a pelvic fracture in 2004. Your caretaker and Jeff Story are the only ones with the foresight to see the imminent dirtnap. To his credit, Graham has never weathered criticism of intolerance or embezzlement. Here is a link to his "fundamentals"

Master of the hook shot gets the hook...
Mood:  don't ask
George Mikan dies at age 80, the prototypical basketball big man of the 40's that brought the NBA into the sports culture. Good story: George was cut in high school because he wore coke bottle goggles, but he persevered to become one of the 50 best in NBA history.

Calm before the storm?
Mood:  hungry
It has been very quiet in DeadPool land...statistics show that months that have no events are often followed by a month of many death related events...IOW, there ain't much downtime in this game. STAY TUNED!

Prince Rainier is dead, get out a new can...
Mood:  quizzical
Topic: Death NOT Score
Yahoo! News The only son of Rainier and Princess Grace, Albert becomes Monaco's de facto ruler until a formal investiture expected after a mourning period. He took over the royal powers — but not the throne — last week after a royal commission decided Rainier was too sick to rule....yep, let the new "Prince Albert in a can" jokes begin!
