Are the following people dead or alive?

1. Beverly Cleary (children's author, Ramona Quimby series)

alive

I've been waiting for this one, she's a c-note and change!
I was going to remark on her earlier until I gave up adding comments. So Cleary and Fosse equals TWO prescient points for the Earl!!!!1


2. Chuck Yeager (test pilot with The Right Stuff)

dead

3. Daphne Zuniga (actress, popular in the 80s and 90s)

alive

4. Doris Day (actress, dog activist)

alive

I think she just had a birthday earlier this month...

5. Gloria Vanderbilt (fashion designer)

alive

6. Graham Kerr (Galloping Gourmet)

alive

7. Joe Frazier (boxer)

dead

Down goes Frazier....

8. June Lockhart (actress, Lost in Space)

alive

I hope I'm not getting her mixed up with June Allyson...

9. Kirk Douglas (actor)

alive

People talk about Keith Richards, nah, it will be Spartacus. Although my favourite role of his was in War Wagon, I doubt anybody would get a Lomax reference. Ah, hell, who am I kidding?
Nobody is reading this...


10. Kris Kristofferson (actor, singer)

alive

One of my all-time favourite singers (yes, I'm serious). I have an album called Willie does Kristofferson or something like that which is greatness meeting greatness at the pinnacle of mellifluousness. Now I need to dig that and Stardut out and have a Williepalooza on my turntable (yes, I still have two of them).

11. Lee Meriwether (actress, Barnaby Jones)

12. Marvin Hamlisch (composer)

13. Michael Crichton (wrote Jurassic park)

Man, talk about stinking up the joint this time. Funny thing is this is only the second time I checked whether my score was correct and both times I had one more point than I should have. (Should have had 11 this time.) I ain't checking any of the others.

Thanks for the game, vandal. I love this game! Most of the time I had to guess on a fair number of them and actually got lucky more often than I should have. (Just like in real life, I guess.)

You did a great job. Thanks again.

Sadly, he has left the building. I remember watching a Lincoln Center (I think) tribute to him that turned into a posthumous one when he died before it took place.

PS It took me clear until this last game before I realized that they were in alpha by first name order, so all of my over analyzing the frequency and position of alives and deads was in vain. Although it might have made me get a few inadvertently right as well as wrong....ha!
