Is it time to put in our guesses on which celebrities will die this year?
All y'all that said "Absolutely for sure Charlie Sheen" last year were wrong. I knew we wouldn't get that pleasure.
I'm wondering if this is the year Britney or Lindsey will finally go too far. Remember how insane Amy Winehouse was - and then we heard nothing from her, and then she turned up dead? I'm trying to think of someone who was in dire distress a couple years ago, and has been MIA. Maybe Jon Gosselin or something. And then of course, we have to think of those whose time coming won't be so surprising - like Rose Marie or Dick van Patten or one of those people that are close to 100 than not.
Any guesses?

I love this game. When the family was bigger, we played this for money on Thanksgiving, with everyone putting in $10. We called it the Pine Box Derby. It has to be someone famous; you couldn't pick Aunt Mary.
So...my pick is former president George H. Bush. I hope I'm wrong.

The obvious pick is Li Lo. But, then again, you look at Keith Richards and some of these other people still standing into the Geriatric ward! So, go figure!
Actually, i will pick one of Li Lo's parents like Michael or Deena because they both have addiction problems as well.

Of the young celebrities, Lindsay Lohan, unless she finally gets her addiction(s) under control. In politics, probably former Pres. Bush (Senior). In music, Gregg Allman (Cher's ex). I saw him being interviewed recently, & he was acting like a total geezer! Must've been all of those drugs....  |

For world leaders, George H. W. Bush, Nelson Mandela and Fidel Castro.
For celebrities, I think we'll lose a rock legend, but it won't be one of the Rolling Stones. Surely they had some sort of physical before they planned the 50th anniversary tour. Maybe David Crosby?
Kirk Douglas is about a million and had that stroke a while back.
I'll stick with the old dudes. I feel weird predicting the blaze of glory ones.

I don't know. I just think there's some bad ju-ju associated with playing this game, so I'll just leave it all up to the Universe. Just my opinion.

Oh come on! It's all in fun. And it certainly isn't a wish list. Thyme...did you want us to pick three? If so, then my guesses would be G.H. Bush, Queen Elizabeth, and Nick Nolte.
Can you pin this so we can check throughout the year?

If so, then my guesses would be G.H. Bush, Queen Elizabeth, and Nick Nolte. Prince Philip (the Queen's husband) maybe - in fact, probably. The Queen? No way. Those old Englishwomen are tough as nails. She'll probably keep kicking another 10-20 years. I should know, my MIL is English. |

I'm kinda worried about Regis Philbin. He was in the hospital, came back and promptly retired and we haven't seen hide nor hair of him in months. I'm kinda wondering about McCauley Caulkin as well. He's one of thyme's folks that were acting up a couple of years ago and we haven't seen him in a while. For the trifecta I'm thinking Courtney Love.

McCauley Caulkin is a good one. He was a mess last time I saw him. I just read Hillary is in the hospital with a blood clot. Anyone that dies today or tomorrow doesn't count.  |

We were discussing Regis senior and not junior. Junior has many, many years to go.  |
