I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here!

Is this the summer of celebrity death or what? Since June 11, the following celebrities have kicked the bucket: Gregory Peck, David Brinkley, Katharine Hepburn, Buddy Hackett, Barry White, Buddy Ebsen, Hume Cronyn, and Leon Uris (author of Mila 18, which forced Joseph Heller to change the title of his book from Catch-18 to Catch-22; just a bit o' trivia for ya). Also, universally reviled Senator Strom Thurmond finally did something nice and shuffled off his mortal coil. More celebrities died this June than in any other month this year! It's just a little weird.

I'm not holding out much, ugh, hope, for Bob Hope to make it past August. And Regan's just hanging on there by a thread as well. It's time to join your local celebrity dead pool, people. It's not morbid, it's just life.
