I am playing in [Corey and Joel's](http://www.coreyandjoelradio.com/) “fan” Death Pool this year – along with eight other listeners of the show. Everybody sent in 30+ picks to Corey and Joel, and the guys did the draft for the fans. I ended up with the following picks:

1. Ariel Sharon (21)
2. Fidel Castro (19)
3. Elizabeth Taylor (25)
4. B.B. King (18)
5. Arthur C. Clark (10)
6. Charlton Heston (16)
7. Andy Griffith (19)
8. Osama bin Laden (50)
9. Dick Cheney (34)
10. Mel Brooks (19)
11. Bob Barker (16)
12. John Glenn (21)
13. Stan Lee (15)
14. Henry Winkler (38)
15. Frank Oz (37)
16. Paul Verhoven (31)

The number in brackets is the points each person would get me, although of course it does depend on their actual age at the moment of death. I’d say it’s an OK list. You can [follow the death pool discussion](http://www.coreyandjoelradio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=229) over at the forums, but if and when I score some points I will surely boast about it here.

I just hope I don’t end up with 0 points. That’d be… sad.

Also, if I get only one death on the list…. please let it be Paul Verhoeven. I still hate him for what he did to [Starship Troopers](/2003/02/04/starship-troopers-dvd/).
