A little birdie tells me that my next pick should be space pioneer and ex-senator John Glenn.

I thought the next astronaut to go would be Buzz Aldrin after that Antarctic evacuation thing. John Glenn's heart problems are back? :(

Thanks, what I read earlier said they were both down there at the same time (although Glenn wasn't trying to reach the South Pole).

Make it two out of three.

My next pick in the pool: Kirk Douglas, who turned 100 today:

Alan Thicke has passed away from a heart attack at 69.

Craig Sager, NBA sideline reporter succumbs to cancer at 65. Sad loss for the NBA, he was fun, and had a crazy wardrobe.

Peace out Zsa Zsa. I just checked your mortality status last week. Who should I tap next?

Zsa Zsa Gabor at 99.

I'd say Kirk Douglas, but now that he has hit 100 he might live forever.
