DeathList 2006
So here is Deathlist for 2006. A quick summary of the idea behind DeathList: The DeathList committee draws up the list at the end of each year with the objective of selecting the celebrities most likely to die in the next calendar year. The list comprises 50 celebrities, with no more than 25 who appeared on the previous year's list. Candidates are not eligible if their only claim to fame is that they are likely to die shortly. Candidates must also pass the famousness test - which is basically that their death will be covered by the UK media. DeathList 2005 finished with 12 successes, the same total achieved in 2004. The record performance remains the mighty haul of 14 deaths in 2003. Whether this can ever be beaten remains to be seen.

I don't know whether to call this cruel or what, but I find this kind of interesting.

Notice the Milk Snatcher checking in at #36.

2. eyesroll and I had a deathlist contest every year.
We are now divorced. dolo amber and I have never had a deathlist. We are still married.

Coincidence? Probably. But intriguing, nonetheless.
