If there was vodka involved this would be the way to go.

@DogsB said in The Official 2021 Death Pool:
the original “Superman” film
Sorry, but no. The original "Superman" feature film was Superman and the Mole Men, from 1951, directed by Lee Sholem and starring George Reeves, although there had been shorts and serials as early as 1941.

@DogsB well, that's it. Either Z-Top, Z-Top, or ZZ is the best we can do, from here on out.

@boomzilla Is he going to be buried? Cremated? No. Sliced and diced, and also julienned. But wait; there's more!

The [Central Park] Conservancy said in a statement that Barry had been flying low, likely while searching for food, when it "made contact" with a maintenance vehicle at around 2:30 Friday morning. Staff reported the incident and contacted the Urban Park Rangers.
"The barred owl's presence in Central Park brought so much joy, reminding all of us that the Park is a vital greenspace for all New Yorkers, including the wildlife that call it home," the Conservancy said.
RIP

Tom Hanks doesn't seem to actually be dead. I had assumed he'd died a few months ago, somehow. Will update as the situation progresses.
Yes, part of this is because of
Philadelphia
.LaToya and Germaine Jackson are also both still alive. Even Mr. T is somehow still alive. None of this makes any sense to me.
Lance Henriksen is still alive.

While Powell ultimately supported the president's decision to invade Iraq, he acknowledged that he was hesitant about waging war.

Fredrik Lundh has died
Fredrik was an early Python contributor (e.g. Elementtree and the 're'module) and his enthusiasm for the language and community were inspiring for all who encountered him or his work. He spent countless hours on comp.lang.python answering questions from newbies and advanced users alike.
He also co-founded an early Python startup, Secret Labs AB, which among other software released an IDE named PythonWorks. Fredrik also created the Python Imaging Library (PIL) which is still THE way to interact with images in Python, now most often through its Pillow fork.
His effbot.org site was a valuable resource for generations of Python users, especially its Tkinter documentation.
Fredrik's private Facebook page contains the following message from
November 25 by Ylva Larensson (translated from Swedish):"""
It is with such sorrow and pain that I write this. Fredrik has left us
suddenly."""
A core dev wrote: "I felt privileged to be able to study Fredrik's code and to read his writing. He was a huge asset to our community in the early days. I enjoyed his sense of humor as well. I'm sad that he passed away."

Was Jethro even that popular?
TBH I thought he'd already died but suspect I'm confusing him with someone else
