Or if she flips for leniency a few in Epstein's list of ''friends'' little black book could  shorten.

 You will hear my cheer all the way to Bourke if she does it. I hope she rots. 

 But she won't. Just think of all the action she'll get in the slammer.

Last chance to get your selections in. Remember there are prizes ho for grabs so why not have a go. It’s looking like VSP May have secured the $20 bonus bet + Bob’s bottles of wine this for this year but it’s on again for 2022!

Here’s my tips:

Queen Elizabeth

Jimmy Carter

John Howard

The Unabomber

Bill Lawry

Gislaine Maxwell

Molly Meldrum

Mahathir Mohamed

Dan Bilzerian

The MyPillow Guy

Here's my 2022 list. I'm giving the Kiss of Life to the following:

Jimmy Carter
Liza Minelli
Camilla - Duchess of Cornwall
Barbara Walters
Bill Clinton
Rod Laver
Ken Rosewall
Michael Caine
David Attenborough
Imelda Marcos

- Good luck to all the people chosen by myself and others, I hope it's a low scoring year for all contestants Tongue

 In December 2021, 79-year-old Kaczynski was transferred from the supermax prison in Florence, Colorado to the Federal Medical Center, Butner, North Carolina, for health reasons.

 A very suspicious selection E&E.Are you flouting rules?

Wasn’t aware of that. Think I put him in a previous year so made the cut. Nevertheless, I will sub in someone else to avoid any appearance of impropriety. 

New list:

Queen Elizabeth

Jimmy Carter

John Howard

Rod Laver

Bill Lawry

Gislaine Maxwell

Molly Meldrum

Mahathir Mohamed

Kaczynski does not have access to anybody does he ?

He has been isolated since capture. Not sure he has access to anything he could kill himself with either ?

I think Kaczynski is a legitimate choice.

I've been choosing Olivia Newton-John for several years now and I'm sure continues to see her doctor every day which maybe a reason she's "Dead money..."

Sounds like there is some thought that the Unabomber is a fair pick. I will wait until the morning for any further opinions on the matter and go with what the majority opinion appears to be at that time.

I would have thought the very recent medical transfer indicated very significant immediate medical issues. They wouldn't be transferring unless he was in a bad way. Aren't we supposed to avoid those known to have one foot in the grave already? With the limited info available on Kaczynski the inference is that he is seriously ill right now.

Seriously? Prince Phillip wasn't ill at 99? Everyone knew Bert Newton was ill. Olivia Newton-John has been seriously ill for years! Maybe the press likes to keep a lip on stars but on the infamous the sonner they kick the baquet the better.

 the Olivia Newton-John argument has merit. Also, Jimmy Carter is looking like he's already departed.

 So, it's up to you, E&E. I don't want Rocket Laver to die yet.

Like I said, I wasn’t aware of the transfer. So far it’s 2 for and 2 against the selection. If it’s still that in the morning I’ll stick with Rod Laver as a substitute.

 Betty White is not to be included in any list. She has special exemption.

 The world will be awash with tears if she goes.
