@curios i guess it is news if a famous person dies... er umm since all people eventually die..i guess u could make the death questions more fun like: Ok when DeanThoreau dies will it be a. with Sara Palin in his arms? b. With 3 million hubbucks in his coffers? c. by drowning in Walden Pond d. all of the above e. none of the above
