Subtract 100 from the persons age at passing for your score. Smallest total, (i.e, biggest negative total) when the fiireworks go off on January 1, 2018 wins. |

Making it more complicated this year! Can we pick an alternate if they kick before 1/1? The President is a fink. |

He will be in better shape than me when he is dead, but I am just figuring age has to catch up with him. I haven't heard much about him around the town in years. Call it a wild card. The President is a fink. |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25010 | Zsa Zsa Gabor passed today, was she on either list? 99 years old. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Wrong Gabor, that's Ava. There were 3 Gabor sisters. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
