Alright, I dropped the ball this year but since nobody picked it up...
Post your picks! Tell your friends! Those of you queers on Facebook/Myspace/Twatface send out the word to your TW friends!
I think a week is enough time, don't you? Unless there are several objections let's make the deadline January 7th.
And let's settle the issue of terminally ill picks. I still think that if the person is publicly known to have any sort of terminal illness at the time of selecting them their point value should be cut in half. Or we should dock one point from the total for each terminally ill pick that doesn't die by the end of the year. Thoughts?
Let's rock this shit.

I went to a restaurant that serves 'breakfast at any time'. So I ordered French Toast during the Renaissance.

I vote that terminally ill picks get their points cut in half.

Your idea about deducting the points of terminals who don't end up dying from the contestant's point total is one I thought of this past year when reading the 2009 pool. Let's do it!
I'm picking ten people who look like they need to die soon:
In a League of Her Own Lindsay Lohan Pamela Anderson
All Hail the Chief Old George Bush Jimmy Carter
To Boldy Go William Shatner Leonard Nimoy
Oh, Rob! Dick Van Dyke Mary Tyler Moore
Does it Matter Which One? an Olsen twin a Pointer sister

I posted my list before reading anyone elses picks; seems many of us agree that Jimmy Carter looks like shit. I chose him on his age spots, but I wonder if monitoring elections keeps one spry.
No one's touching Cheney, I see......*chortle*
