Matt’s 2009 Death List

In 2008, I took a more tongue-in-cheek approach to my Death List. Instead of listing people who I thought would die that year, I listed those people who I hoped would die that year. I did manage to get one hit when Charlton Heston died, though it was my hope he would die of a gunshot injury. I still wonder to this day if, at his funeral, they pried his gun from his cold, dead hands.

My Score for 2009: 1 out of 5.
