Dead Letter Office, 2002


     Yes, we know these letters aren't very funny. That's 'cause we didn't write 'em. They're from you. Take a look at last year's mail. None of that shit is funny either.      What more is there to say (except that the newest mail goes at the bottom of the page, and you can reach us here)? Kiss kiss.

IM JESSICA AND I WANNA BE A GOTH

yesterday my father and i entered the celeb dead pool. what a bonding 
experience. anyway he is very old and senility is kicking in. if i thought 
he'd be recognized as a celeb i wouldve entered him. (  on a list that is ) 
im telling you this because on 2 of our 3 entries he fucked up his own e mail 
address and hes not even sure what nickname he entered one of the lists in 
question under, i know hes an ass. the lists were nicknamed under i can see 
clearly now the dirt is gone, die die die my darling and something like 
afjake 159. they where all billed to alexander jacobs the payments were made 
on his mastercard card. one lists confirmation was sent to my e mail address. 
[deleted for privacy] i believe the improper e mail address he entered was 
also afjake 159. hes stupid. could one of you kind souls see if all 3 of our 
lists were submitted and if they were ( or werent ) please send me some type 
of confirmation.     thank you    my condolences

I did my fuckin' research and still got screwed. Claude Shannon died last
year. Man, am I pissed.

His best invention btw:He built a box with an on/off switch on the top.
If you switched it on the box opened, a hand came out, hit the off switch,
went back in the box, and the box closed. Oh, and that whole thing about
information theory.

That's the last time I'll write write a masters thesis and cite any of his
works!

Fuck.

Dear Zach, et al,

I think my computer burped while I was sending my entries.  I meant to
submit and pay for two games, under "Probate Lawyer Seeks Work" and "Get
Ye Gone".  I used the Stiff-o-Matic for both.

I also submitted a pick through the "Pistol Pete" entry form, under the
same "Mike's Amazing Life Giving List" or some silly horseshit like
that.  Frankly, I've already forgotten the name, and didn't write it
down. I was in a hurry.

Anyway, I noticed two glitches.  First, there was a problem with the
Probate Lawyer Seeks Work entry.  I hit the back button, tried to fix
it, and hit the submit button to review my entry again.  It reported the
Entry as Probate Lawyer Seeks Work2, and I hit the back button again to
correct the name.  After repeating the process, I hit submit again and
it said Probate Lawyer Seeks Work3.  As I said, I was in a hurry, said
fuck it, and went ahead with the entry.

Now I find I have three confirmations from you, each reporting a $15
charge on my credit card.  So I either entered the "Probate Lawyer" list
twice, which I didn't intend to do; or I got charged for the freebie.

Either way, could you straighten this out?  I really don't want two
identical lists in the game. I would happily accept a Stiffs
Certificate, or a Tee Shirt, XL, if I was charged the extra $15.
Surprise me.

Better yet.  Give me one of Vicious Piranha's lists.  Fuckin' Prize Pig.

Happy New Year.

-Mike

What happen? We sent our list in( it was the same as last year ) and your 
saying we're
not entered? What gives? If it is the same list as last year what's the 
problem? If my credit card shows I paid, my friend Lefty you be paying you a 
visit. If not, why can't I get in if I use my same list as last year, Huh? 
Look forward to your answer.

Hello friends:

The old guy with the scythe is gone, and the baby with the party hat and
tooty-horn has just shown up. Let's toss one back, Jones.

Here's to a fine and prosperous New Year for one and all! And what
better way to start `ought-two but with a new venue for The Naked
Trucker Show? 
We're playing at:

Spaceland
1717 Silverlake Boulevard
Silverlake (that's East Hollywood, sorta)
213.833.2843(info line)

This Wednesday,  the ninth of January, 2002
Some time between 9p and 11p(probably earlier than later...)

Providing, of course that:

NT can find his socks- he left `em in the sleeper, but the Brazilian
girl mighta snagged `em.

T-Bones' conjugal visit is over by then. She'll be out in a year, with
time off for good behavior.

JP gets through the return line at Fry's- "It caught on fire all by
itself! I swear it did!"

TC finds the key to the Malibu. They went into the bushes when the
chopper landed in the #2 lane- "`S not MY car, Officer, sir! Lemme zipup firsht."

We are reputedly playing with some old friends and some new- We're not
quite sure who...
But it promises to be an interesting and low-budget night- it's
advertised as "free" in the L.A. Weekly which also has some pretty good
directions around the border of the ad(Don't try to read `em while
you're driving!). 

Come on down for some unadorned comedy action, music, and potent
potables for two hundred, Alex.

See you then.

-tc



DID YOU GUYS NOTICE THE MISSPELLING UNDER THE HEADING OF

Happy New Year folks!

Burt probably doesn't rate high enough to be on the list o' death for 2002
but shouldn't go unnoticed, at least at a low level. In addition to saving
the to-that-point pretty much useless Hubble Space Telescope, Edelson
"…spent much of his professional life working for improvements in
telecommunications satellite technology." Remember how crappy the live feed
of the Munich Olympics looked on TV in 1972?

I'm not asking you to include Burt Edelson on the 2002 list, unless you see
fit, but instead thought that you might be interested in what the man did.
Without being famous.

Take it easy!

-Ed



I heard about your rather macabre club today while listening to K&B on 
sportstalk radio. I'm fuckin pissed that I missed out on such goulish fun 
while waiting for the gosh darn NFL draft to get underway. Oh well.......

Thanks for nothing.

Hi there,
 
I just wondered maybe you might know.  I am trying to find the name of the 
comedian that did a walk-on in the dean martin celebrity roasts for frank 
sinatra, and dean martin.  I have the 2 videos but can't make out his name.  
Jack Palance or Tony Palace or something.
 
In the dean martin roast, he was supposed to be his producer.  And in the 
Sinatra roast, he was supposed to be sinatra's bodyguard.  
 
I found your site from yahoo, and it loads quite fast.  
 
Thanks.

Zach,

I emailed you on January 15th and I have not heard back from you. I am 
wondering when the lists for this year will be posted. I heard that your 
dinner last week was fun and that you have 1000 entries for the 2002 game.

I guess this means the prizes will be bigger, right?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

-Chris

I noticed on one of my entries (DEATHMASTER 2) that I have Betty Carter as
my 10th celebrity.  I meant to have picked Benny Carter but must have
picked Betty by mistake.  I can live with that.  My bad.  But I used the
Select-o-matic for DeathMasters 1 & 2, so Betty Carter is on there.  But
you say she is dead, and I verified that she did die in 1998.  My question
is, why is she still listed as a possible living person for choosing in the
pool???

Are the most popular celebs the most likely to croak during the year?

made the stiffs list?

Oh please. You couldn't think of anything so you made anagrams out of his name? 
Is this all we can expect from you? His memoirs were titled Events Leading Up to

Vicious Piranha has 20 lists full of people nobody has ever heard of. How the 
hell could you deem these guys celebrities? Dorothy Rodham? Sarah Brady?Maurice 
Papon? Donn Clendenon? Who the fuck ever heard of these people? They are NOT 
famous!!!!!!! Change the rules! If you asked 1000 random people on the corner of 
34th and 7th if they knew who any of these fucks were, I'd be in mortal shock if 
more than 20 could identify any one of them. Is this a celebrity death pool or
what??? Restore integrity to this fine institution. Use common sense when judging 
celebrity status. Just because vicious pirhana found a clip in some local paper 
reporting an illness, doesn't make the bastard famous!!!!!

-KilgoreJ



What could possibly be taking so long with Chuck's blurb? I mean, it couldn't be 
more obvious, could it? It can't be too unimaginative; that doesn't seem to be a 
criterion. Just write the words, already. Jeesh, do I have to spell it out for you? 
Okay, but just this once. Don't let it happen again. "That's all folks". There, that 
wasn't so bad, was it? No charge.

-PurvisCR



Zach, I spelled Juan-Antonio Samaranch wrong on my bonus list. I hope you won't 
hold it against me. Thanks, 

-Dave



Hiya Zach, Drew, Greg, etc.-
Hey guys, I forgot to complete the name on my Pistol
Pete list for the March Jr. It just says "Wild John's"
I'd like it to be "Wild John's Pine Box Pantheon" if
at all possible. Otherwise, just "Some other
Fucknose's Lame List" will work.
Thanks-
Happy Dead Folks!

-Wild John



I just sent you my pistol pete and realized I didn't have a title for it.  I
left it Bart and DJ - 

If you can just make it Bart and DJ - the list with no name.

And if this is too much of a pain in the ass just tell me to fuck off.

To yourself though because I'm feeling sensitive today

Looking forward to the Stiffs.com NCAA Tourney Challenge.  Was gonna be in
Vegas but the plans just fell through so I probably won't make it till
April.  If you guys go have a great time.

Hope the wrist is better 

-DJtheDJ



Hello-
I've sent in 4 lists via the S-O-M, but have only
received 3 confirmation emails at the address I
supplied [deleted for privacy].  I'm checking to
be sure that you got all 4 correctly, and that I'm
missing a confirmaiton because of a typo.  I filled
out 2 Pistol Pete lists to accompany the 4 I paid
four.  Let me know if you need me to resend the lists.
Thanks,

-Matt



Hey, Zach:

Below is my confirmation for the second of four lists I've entered so far 
today.  However, when I tried printing the invoice, I got an error message.

The list name is Die2L.  Was it received okay?  And is it possible for me to 
print the list (Printable Invoice) again?

Thanks,

-Scott (Die2K)



Hi Z-man. I just entered my ten billion (ok 15) lists and just want to make sure my 
5 Freebie-jeebies are going to be all fine. Just, you know, a heads up. They're under 
my usual "EB", 11-15. I made a special limerick just for this game, by the way. 
That's "special" as in "neat", not "special" as in "retarded". I hope.

Good luck with everything, and don't work too hard.

-E. 
 PS my last list, #15, is composed of all Write-ins for the FC. You can thank me later.



I'm very sorry for sending this email, but hopefully my patronage makes up
for my being a pain in the ass on this occasion. That and the fact that I
plug your site regularly on a syndicated evening talk show and give updates
every time there is a hit.

Anyway, I accidentally gave the wrong expiration date for my credit card on
one of my entries. Five of the six lists for which I paid have the correct
date, and the other has 02 instead of 10 as the month. My real name is Jeff
Ecker and you already have my email address, I hope that's enough to
identify me. I'm hoping this doesn't screw things up too much. If it does,
let me know how I can make it up to you.

Also--and this is REALLY whiny ass bull shit--I forgot to put "Doc--" in the
front of two of my names, so they won't be with the rest of my lists. If I
have to suck it up and deal with it, then I will. However, if there is any
way to add that little prefix I would really appreciate it (I TOLD you it
was really whiny bull shit).

Thanks for providing such a great game. I love it.

peace, love, flowers and all of that crap,

-The Doctor



Exactly...dipstick here...every friggin' time! I'm on list 12 and still 
don't get it correct. To the point...I fowled my zip code on 
Coatlicue-Bookem Dano. It supposed to be 15217 not 1 . Can I get drunk or what?

-Drunko the ditz



Hi,
Tried to enter the Lee, Jr.  Had a problem with the credit card
submission - first try declined (had my exact name shortened), second
try was "duplicate entry".  Not sure if it went through.  Name of the
entry was "Second Try  Die Die Die!", under "Douglas R. Lute".  Bitmap
of the team selection attached, sorry for the bandwidth suckage.
Please lemme know if I can provide info, or if I'm screwed.  Thanks!

-Doug



I know it's headache time for you but I got a weird message from your server.
 
I entered a team called "In Texas You Can Only Own 5 Dildos". I got a message 
saying that it was rejected. I subsequently tried to re-enter it and it told 
that me it was a duplicate transaction. I may have made a mistake entering my 
Visa # the first time but I'm not sure.
 
Subsequently I entered a team called "That Boy Sure Can Cipher". It appeared 
to enter correctly. I then entered a Pistol Pete Freebie called "I Have Nipples 
Greg Could You Milk Me". 
 
I don't think those last 3 took correctly because I've entered a total of 12 
teams and have received only 7 confirmations so far as opposed to 8. Oh well. 

-David Kempler



to whom it may concern:

i sent in my three lists for the price of two, yesterday, february 28, 2002.
you should receive it postmarked.  however, i failed to include my check,
which i mailed later that night as well.  if this is not acceptable, i trust
you will return the check to me uncashed.  if you receive the lists
postmarked okay, and cash the check, i assume you will be letting me play
despite my bonehead minstakes.   i want to play!  i LOVE death and dying
celebs.  anyways, i am confident you all will educate me one way or another
about my mishap.

thanks,

-bruce ford



Mr(s). whinyassbullshit,

Well I even purchased a mug this year. But I don't see my two confirms for 
my last two (+pm list) paid entries. I didn't see any irregularities either 
or emails of rejection. My lists are as follows:

Probable confirmed lists:

Don Pescado-Ollantaytambo spells victory(freebie)
Don Pescado-Age before beauty
Don Pescado-New Favorites
Don Pescado-Prison flicks rule(freebie)
Don Pescado-I'm not an accountant!
Don Pescado-The Grammy's are ostinatos
Coatlicue-Hoity Toity Hoi Polloi
Coatlicue-Steve McQueen lives in Wilmerding (freebie)
Coatlicue-Do you remember Yama?
Coatlicue-I miss Gene Rayburn
Coatlicue-Bookem Dano
Coatlicue-??????(freebie)

The three I think I lost are:

Osiris-Have you met my brother Seth
Osiris-Oh my sweet Medea
Osiris-??????(freebie)

I purchased and rec'd confirmation of my mug after I submitted all of my 
picks, so I guess I'm screwed?!

I also sent an email about an error of zip code that I sent to you last night.

Thanks for being patient with me,

-A



I don't know whether you got my last 3 lists or whether you got my other
email so I'm trying again from work.

I submitted 3 lists around 9PM your time. They were:

        In Texas You Can Only Own 5 Dildos

        1.   Johnny Oates
        2.   Ronnie Biggs
        3.   Sara Brady
        4.   Bob Hayes
        5.   Milton Berle
        6.   Bob Hope
        7.   Fay Wray
        8.   Suzanne Somers
        9.   Billy Wilder
        10.  Louie Anderson
        11.  John Gotti


        That Boy Sure Can Cipher

        1.   Madame Chaing Kai Shek
        2.   Queen Mother
        3.   Lester Maddox
        4.   Roone Arledge
        5.   Strom Thurmond
        6.   Dick Martin
        7.   Billy Wilder
        8.   Mullah Omar
        9.   Osama Bin Laden
        10.  Jerry Lewis
        11.  Johnny Oates

        And for My Pistol Pete Entry:

        I Have Nipples Greg Could you Milk Me

        1.   Johnny Oates
        2.   Madame Chaing Kai Shek
        3.   Patsy Ramsey
        4.   Ted Williams
        5.   Lester Maddox
        6.   Gene Wilder
        7.   Ronald Reagan
        8.   Lamar Lundy
        9.   Sara Brady
        10.  Tom Laughlin

                    The copy I have at work is missing an alternate for the
Pistol Pete team and I'm not even positive if I made any last minute changes
to the orders of these three teams. All in all I'm grasping at straws trying
to figure out what happened. 

                    Let me make it clear that I'm not angry about the
confusion the Z-5000 experienced. I'm just wondering what happened and I'm
also wondering what you did and did not receive from me last night.

-David Kempler



hey it up with the whole deadbeat thing? and call Kurt Cobain a deadbeat? 
yea he made some really stupid decissions but come on now? he was in a great 
band. well thats all...bye bye

YOU CAN DISH IT OUT BUT CAN YOU TAKE IT?????????
YOU ARE A SICK LONELY FUCKER.
SOMEDAY YOUR NAME WILL BE IN THE DEAD POOL WITH SOME SICK 
SAYING BESIDE IT. I HAPPEN TO HAVE KNOW WILLIE THROWER.  HE 
WAS A SON, HUSBAND, FATHER, GRANDFATHER AND A FRIEND TO 
MANY.  THAT IS MORE THAN ANYONE CAN SAY ABOUT YOU.  YOU

LIFE......LOOK AT WHAT YOU ARE DOING.........NOTHING THAT IS 
WORTH THE TIME IT TOOK ME TO WRITE THIS.  YOU ARE A BIG DUMB 
FUCK, YOU NEED TO GET A LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-Sandra and Robert Munshower



Hey assholes,
   Got a link to your stupid site and I didn't have much of an opinion on it 
until I read the comment about Willie Thrower and his cousin "Spear Chucker". 
Just thought I'd let you know how fucked up that comment was, however, since 
you're obviously a bunch of narrow minded racists I don't expect that comment 
to be changed. Just voicing my opinion.

-Coco6664



What is up with the message board ??? I keep getting this page cannot be shown. 
Did you pay your bill ?? 

-J Marcoux



Allright now, which one of you sheep-dip dumbfuckers gave Fucko the password? It
ain't bad enough that Bravenet is a lame-o act to begin with, now you have to go
and give him access so he can bring the entire site down. Whatzamatta? You guys
run out of percocets or quaaludes? I suppose you give your babies loaded guns to
play with as well, hah?

Think of the carnage - there are dozens of erstwhile lunatics out there now who
would otherwise vent their spleens(and just what the fuck is a spleen,
anyway?)in a non- threatening and harmless way who are now at home beating their
wives or torturing small furry animals. And it's all because of YOU.

I feel like going to Palm Springs and bashing in the head of a celebrity.

Love and shit,

-Disgruntled alt.stiffs.com user



you sent me an email past the deadline....

any chance next time you can send it before the deadline?

-GdfatherJB



Kind of difficult to meet the deadline when you don't get email informing
you of deadline til 4 days after deadline date!  :-(

I'm guessing it's a Yahoo email goof...oh well, maybe I'll have better
luck next time and get the email before the deadline!

-Roberta



i just got email today
and its too late?

-Extacy9999



I received, on Monday March 4th, the email stating the deadline for the 
March dead pool was Thursday, February 28th.

When's the next deadline?

-Michael Goldstoff



So I get an email on today, Mon. March 4, that the deadline to enter this 
year's March '02 Lee Jr. is Thurs. Feb. 28.  Way to get the news out on time.  
Good thing I didn't die in the interim, so that I could point out this blunder.  
Is the Z-5000 itself dying?
 
-Rob Swenson



No bulletin board for a couple of days now...  This is worse than Fucko with 
an expired vicodin prescription.

-Sandra Elliott



I think you need to put Bravenet on the Sickticker, as if you've nothing else 
to do.

-Wild "And while your at it, get Fucko back in here. I think he's hangin' out 
       by the dumpster behind Von's in Toluca Lake with Kevin Meany's wife" John



Why on earth did you bother to send me an email on March 5th inviting me to 
enter a dead pool with a cut-off date of Feb. 28th?

-Colleen Reid



Just got this today.  A tad bit on the LATE side.

-Kelly



hey Dickwad,
pretty smart sending me an notice for a contest that closed 5 days ago.
you guys are fuckface schmucks.
keep up the good work.
Your friend,

-Razortooth Pete



Zach,

Just a heads up that I received your March Lee Dispatch TODAY (March 5),
so something went wrong. I don't think it was my mailbox; I've been
receiving other e-mails without interruption.  Somehow your dispatches
got hung up.

Best,

-T. Switala



Thanks for the timely reminder. Are you guys slipping or what 

-TEEJ414



Hey Death Dudes,

Why are you sending a 4 MAR 02 Dead Pool Dispatch to tell me to get in
on the March Lee Junior, which cut off on 28 FEB?

Maybe I can circle around the earth counterclockwise like a
pre-steeplechase Christopher Reeve, and turn back time to get in on the
Lee Junior?

Maybe Hotmail just sucks?

Happy poolin',

I'm curious. If you are trying to make a little money and have fun, then 
why does the e-mail inviting me to play in the Lee Jr, expiration 2-28 
get sent to me on 3-5 ? It just seems rather peculiar and pointless, not 
to mention flat out stupid, to invite someone to play AFTER the cut-off 
date.

Sincerely,

-Durk DeVries



I’m jonesing. Where is alt.stiffs.com?  Bravenet died! 
AEAEIAIEAIEAIEAIEOOOO!

-CarleneThe5DollahHo



What's the timeframe for vetting our write-ins and for posting our entries?

-DvdAvins



Send me.  I got Joni Mitchell lined up.
 
-Seeloewen



It appears that Bravenet is dead.  At least my access to it is.  Been like
that for almost  a week.  Is it just me?  Thanks.

-Tim



His dumb ass should have gone to Bravenet.com...

...where it's all explained in B & W (and garish blues and yellows).  Sorry
to be a bother.

-Tim



Gee, that reminder that the Lee Jr was closing on Feb 28th sure was helpful, 
arriving as it did on the 5th of March! And while I'm pissing and moaning, I 
still don't have my stiffs mug I paid for WEEKS ago.......

-Sherry Rhodes aka La Muerte, quickly turning into Sherry That Bitch



just an fyi...this showed up in my inbox on March 4.

Just getting back from a weekend in Dorado, PR...I go away and all hell 
breaks loose on the board...

Good luck with the data entry on the March Jr.

Cheers,

-MA



hey, what's up with the new password requirement?  i tried to sign in and 
they told me my name was already taken?  

-Lady Die



You guys need a new PR guy, since Fucko seems to be permanently AWOL.  

Wouldn't I be outstanding in that capacity?

You wouldn't even need to pay me much...just some free shit, you know?
Maybe a complementary Lee Jr. entry once in a while.  

Let me know.  You guys are gods among men and I want to be just like you.

-Dave the PR Guy



RECEIVED AN E-MAIL ABOUT THE ATWATER JR. CONTEST.  
VERY INTERESTED.  WHEN DO THE ENTRIES GO IN, AND 
FOR WHAT TIME PERIOD?

-WHINYASSMARY



Sign me up for the mailbag list would ya?  This shit cracks me up.  You 
guys are sick ... I like it !!!

Dear Sirs:

   Been watching TV Land lately and realizing that on alot of these shows 
there's at least 1 character on it that is now worm food. 
Some shows that I'm not sure of are:
  Happy Days: Is Al dead?
  Laverne and Shirley: Has Lavern's father or his woman friend bitten the dust
   WKRP: Les Nesman given his last newcast or how about the big guy, gordon jump
Lastly .. how many little rascals (and which ones) still walk the earth
Just curious

  dr. scholl is dead!  let us partake in unbridled revelry to celebrate the 
death of the aforementioned corpse, and thus the end of a grim drought.  for 
a while there it looked like the only people were going to die in march were 
biologists and university professors, none of whom ever came close to making 
advances in the field of podiatry.  so let us all raise a glass to the late 
great dr. scholl!

-stretch



Dr. William Scholl
And he still smells great!

Rosetta Lenoire died on 17th March & you haven't crossed her off!!

OK...I can find my way home, but what the hell was my "nickname" when I spent 
all that money to enter this contest?

And, furthermore, it was reported today that at a White House staff meeting last 
week there was a heated discussion about the health of Vice President Cheney and 
his angina problem. President Bush interrupted and stated emphatically that "Men 
do not have anginas." The President was especially perplexed when a staffer said 
that Cheney has "acute angina."

-Paul Presburger



time to cross off Dudley Moore.  But I am sure you were way ahead of me on
that one.



IS THERE ANOTHER JUNIOR CONTEST, AS SOME DICKHEAD SENT ME 
THE MARCH INFO ON MARCH 4TH.  WE'D LIKE TO BE PREPARED.
                THANKS FOR NOTHING,

-MARYTHEK



Please give me the Dead Pool Dispatch on a semi-regular basis!

-Dagny Haug



I'm interested but I'm a bit new to this...

Thanks,

   Your number 2 person has Kitty Carlisle as a
selection and she is not marked as dead. I believe she
died earlier this year. You might want to check it out.

-Charles Trew



Dear Stiffs.com,

I recently took a look at my list and noticed that
Queen Elizabeth II was on it.  The list I submitted
had the Queen Mother on it.  Now that people are
dropping faster than Greg Brady in a boxing ring, I
wanted to remedy the mix-up.

Thanks,

-Randy



Why not say for Billy Wilder: "Make that, SIX graves to Cairo"

-paul



You know....your blurbs used to be really funny, original, and very 
mean-spirited (but in a good way).    Now they just plain suck.    
I'm quite disappointed.

-Pat Hoover



at the risk of e-mail of week ridicule, wondering if
there is a technical problem with the Lee Jr listings
or if my cheap old laptop is f'ed up?

Thank you.

Hello,
 
The 4 links on the March Lee Junior contest do not work for me.
 
Is it because it is not ready or else how can I access the stats?
 
Thanks,
 
-Marc



Love you. Love the game.

Why can't I access any of the March Lee Jr. pages to open?  Everytime I have
tried in the last 4 days, a page comes up saying "That page cannot be
accessed". The Lee Invititational pages appear to be working.

It's a puzzlement.

-Stanley N. Hartstein



Da Queen Mum is dead...long live the Queen!

day I have to play. Life is too short.

They're dropping like flies

So all the excitement is there for a new Lee Jr.!!

He was in "Reservoir Dogs" among dozens of other movies.

Your blurbs on this year's death list really suck!  For godsake I
know you Westcoast morons can do better then that.

-SHARKAIDE



I forgot my entry name. My name is Greg Pagel using the email address 
[deleted for privacy]. My old hard drive crashed and lost all info, 
thanks, 

-Greg



I just checked my list after this past weekend's wonderful news that the
Queen Mother died, and you have me listing Queen Elizabeth II.... I have my
original submission showing QM! What's up with that!! I hadn't bothered
checking before now, because no one on my list had died before ole Uncle
Miltie..... gimme a break! How does this get corrected?

-Annie



Please let me know about next Lee Jr....can't wait. Had I entered on time 
I would certainly be ahead now as Dudley Moore was my # 1 pick! Thanks

-itz4u2



     This is getting to be ridiculous.  The March Jr. is still not posted?  
A broken wrist is a pretty lame excuse.  Hell, I learned to type in high 
school with a wrist cast on.  You can still move your fingers, and all your 
thumb does is work the spacebar.  I'm seriously hoping that a breeze doesn't 
blow up your skirt.  Don't want you to catch pneumonia or some shit like that.

OK,
well one i love your site and would like to know if u r interested in advertising 
with antipopstars.net - we want all pop celebraties to die to - this is a great

Guys -

As a member of the pool and a PR guy in my professional life, I came
across the following request for sources that might be of some interest
to you all.

++++++++++
**4. DEATHS OCCURRING IN THREES - MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL. The
deaths of Milton Berle and Dudley Moore within days of each other caused
many to wonder, who's next? The death of Billy Wilder for many was the
third shoe dropping. There is a widely held belief -- superstition --
that such deaths occur in groups of three. Why do we feel this way? How
did this belief get started? And what role does the number "three" play
in the mythology of our lives? No phone calls, please. Need leads by May
12. >>> Duane Dudek  URL: http://www.jsonline.com
[T::4/03:6161]
++++++++++

I take no credit or responsibility for the clarity of the request, but
he might be up for input from the operators of stiffs.com.

Good luck,

-Mike "Spinzo" Spinney



Update your hate list once in a while you whiskey bums. And remember, 
rehab is for quitters.

-Dwight Bailey



My "Elvis Grbac is a Pussy" entry in the big game shows that I have Queen
Elizabeth II on my entry, but I thought I had picked the Queen Mum.

I was going to chalk tis up to user error (me + slect-o-matic + 6pack of Sam
Adams = questionable decision making skills) but I noticed other people
seemed to have the same problem.  Is there any way of checking what my
actual original entry was, or am I screwed?

Thanks,

-Rick Kirchhausen



March Lee Jr. Buncha dead links. (no pun intended) What's up with that?

-Joey, Crystal, and Isaac Oddo

Hi Zach, Drew, Greg- I realize that you guys are
probably not at all in the mood to deal with a message
about the March Jr., and, therefore, sending one
qualifies me for a brutal tongue (or other variety)
lashing from Fucko, but can anybody help me find my
(1)Pistol Pete? I didn't write down the name, but in
searching the March lists, I can't find any that have
my kind of wit and eloquence. In other words, I don't
recognize it. If it's there, when you get a chance,
could you tell me what it is? If not, it sucked
anyway. I'd just like to know how much it sucked.
Thanks

-WJ

I just wanted to say thank you for listening to my whiney ass bullshit at
the beginning of the March Jr. Even with all the shit you had to go through
with this one you still were able to provide quality customer service. If I
had known the headaches to which you would be subjected this time around I
wouldn't have emailed you in the first place, so thank you very much for the
effort. 

You have the best Dead Pool in the world. Your hard work for little pay or
glory is greatly appreciated. 

peace, love, flowers and all of that crap,

-The Doctor



Thank you for the mugs! They arrived safely. Now I just have to keep my boss
from trying to steal them to take one into a staff meeting with HER bosses.
Yes, I work in a Dilbert World. But stiffs.com helps, especially since I
finally scored a damned stiff. Thanks again, 

-Sherry



REMEMBER ME FOR THE NEXT JUNIOR

-Marykaiseroll



All right, young man. While I am happy to see that you DO try, I'm going to have 
to be your tenth grade English teacher now and insist that you try even harder and 
fully live up to your potential.
 
The title of Mr. Smith's book is (and you should have looked this up on your own):
 Events Leading Up to My Death : The Life of a Twentieth-Century Reporter
 (available NOW through Amazon.com for only $4.39, BTW)

Now go revise your blurb and turn it in by the end of the day. I don't want to see 
the same mistakes all over again. Yes, spelling counts.

There. Don't you feel better about yourself?!

In case you're wondering what I'm getting at: 
They won't get it, so you might just as well play it straight (the irony is better 
anyway).

Dear Stiffs
 
I entered your contest last year, you took my money ,and I never heard from you 
again and never appeared on your list,I assumed it was just an internet rip off. 
This morning I got your e-mail explaining you have had a problem with your 
server,I think your problems been with you for a while, Well guy's heres my 
details check it out.
 
Your real name WILLIAM MICHAEL
Name of the missing list(s) WEEDRAM1
Names of all other lists you entered  NIL
Approximate date and time of entry 01/30/01

Dumbass - everybody knows Thor Heyerdahl just got rafted...

-John Hood



It's been 4 months, and I'm still amazed that you guys deemed Eddie Griffin as 
Not Famous.  He's had HBO comedy specials, he had his own tv show, he's been 
in quite a few movies (the pimp in Deuce Bigelow).  Anyway, if he dies (God 
Willing, Fingers Crossed) plan on hearing from me.  That guy is seriously on my 
list.  Please familiarize yourselves with him and add him for next year.
 
-VivaJeremy



Got on your list a year ago, just got your first email ever. Please put me on 
whatever list is appropriate for notifying followers of new entry deadline or 
dates. 

Thanks

Dear Stiffs.com:
 
Hey...does the recent death of Al Hendrix, scion of Jimi, count as a celebrity, 
especially seeing how he thoughtfully manipulated his dead son's career like 
Yoko did to John Lennon?
 
Heck, I'd love to be paid for doing nothing but keep "my poor dead son's" 
name in the press, too.

Regards,

I read on CCN's website about the passing of Layne Stayley, Lead singer of
Alice in Chains. http://www.cnn.com/2002/US/04/20/staley.dead/index.html
I suggest his obit be as follows:

Layne Stayley:  He's the man in the box.

Sincerely,

-Fritz the Cat



Dear Stiffs.com:
 
Get off the goddamn ball and put Laurence Tierney up on the "This Year's Deaths" 
list, for Chrissakes!  I don't care if no one had him in their pools...but he deserves a 
small mention, and one of those lame-ass one-line descriptors that you dole out to 
all the "recent humans". 
 
As one of the only redeeming moments of that lame-brained Tarantino flick Resevoir 
Dogs and, next to Dennis Franz, the only reason to watch Hill Street Blues, he de-
serves whatever your addled, half-drunk minds can possibly give him.
 
And another thing that bugs me: half of those damn obituaries are as dull as a corpse-
boring maggot.  We've been watching the agonizing Bataan Death Marches of several 
celebrities like Ronnie "Where is my brain, Mommy?" Reagan and Bob "Methuselah" 
Hope for what seems like decades, and after years of sharpening your knives, what 
do you come up with that little shite line for a spectacularly pickled corpse, "I was 
the Empress of India and a Closet Fascist", i.e.,  the Queen Mother?
 
To wit: 
When she finally died, she was 101 ... proof.
 
(clap, clap, clap) Bra--vo. You nailed it, Jeeves.
 
Good Christ Almighty, when some somebody, then nobody like Astrid Linde..
Lindgren... (f@#!*$ Pippi Longstocking) takes a dirt siesta, I can forgive you for 
not already thinking she was already dead and giving your A game. 
 
But "The Mum?" You all must be bat-shit insane, or watching too much penetration 
kiddie porn to even bother with keeping up to date, with the sharpest edge possible 
on your poisoned pens.
 
Speaking of penetration kiddie porn, who wants to wager that some p.o'd parent of 
some weeping, shattered cornholed altar boy is going to start sniping cardinals during 
services this Sunday? Imagine Cardinal Bernard Law standing up and trying to defend 
what he and his cronies did this past week, then taking a fatal application of .308 
lead to the left zygomatic arch, peeling the beanie off his head like a banana peel. 
There's a obituary for you:
 
Cardinal Bernard Law: Now batting cleanup in Hell.
 
Ahh, fuck it:  Obituaries are you job.  So do it already.

Regards,
 
-George Bateman

I am in a pool here in St. Louis. And while our rules are slightly
different than yours we have fun just the same. One of our "draftees" is
abu nidal of terrorism fame. He headed the Fatah group and then was
convicted in absentia in Jordan and condemned to death and then was
supposedly diagnosed with cancer and has  - as you would expect of
someone like him - disappeared from sight. At least to us. Do you know
if indeed he is alive? Or  has he - as we like to say - "achieved point
status"? Thanks, 

-pete



Is the Roger Craig that's listed the washed-up 49er or the washed up 
ex-Giants manager??? Just curious...

-Jeff 



Have you guys researched some of the entries for this year.. There are
people on the entries that are already dead, and some have been 4 or more

To Stiffs.com:
 
I was somewhat pleased that you posted my last letter on your inability to get off 
your lazy asses and put Lawrence Tierney on your "This Year's Deaths."  The 
fact that you still haven't has to be rectified, however.
 
But yet again, your sloth has upended your page, making you all even more irre-
levant, if that was even possible.  What about Steven Jay Gould for chrissakes?  
A major force in paleontology, anthropology, and secular humanism, yet you pig 
fuckers can't seem to give him a mention?  Or how about your chronic inability 
to update the 2002 Shindig list?
 
Boys and girls, methinks you all have to take a weekend; a long, working weekend 
and just update the site.  And not just the links that might make you a few cents at 
Amazon.com, which seems to be one of the biggest pyramid schemes this side of 
Charles Ponzi.  
 
Put down the cans of Pabst, take your mouths off of your bongs and your hands off 
your respective crotches and just do your jobs, O.K.?

Respectfully submitted,

Doesn't Chandra count as one of this year's deaths, since officially she was
not "dead" until they found her skanky-assed skeleton?

-kitty whitty



Stiffies:

     While I wouldn't personally consider someone a celebrity if nobody knew
about them until after they disappeared and probably died, apparently seven
people thought so and you let them do it. So now it's only fair to count
CHANDRA LEVY on your celebrity death list.
      Of course, given the accuracy of the DC Police to this point, maybe
you are just waiting for independent verification of death before lining her
out.

-Mulch Monkey



Hi, did you receive my previous email message?

"Chillin in Chi-Town?" Not to be overly critical, guys, but that seems a tad

OK.  John Entwistle is dead.  What, you got day jobs
or something?  Get on it!  What do these dead pool
suckers pay you for anyway?  To go to work at the
local Carl's Jr. and flip hamburgers all day? 
California sucks.  Are you gonna post something or let
me sit here in my stupid drunken stupor all night
without cable or a fucking cell phone because my
stupid fuckin lazy husband left me and all I have left
now is this stupid fuckin web site and a mortgage to
pay on my fuckin income?  Get on it you buncha drunken

Fuck you!

PS - I am single now and Fucko is kinda cute - will
you please send me his (?) phone number?  Is he rich?

Arthur "Spud" Melin - WHAM-O! You're Dead!

-tampabob



Is this a fix?
You have all these people submitting 10+ list's! why are they allowed to do 
so?
so you don't have to pay out the legit players?
you've come up with all these get out of jail free clause's that get you out 
of jail free and let one of your cronnies win the contest; but not content 
with that you want to finish second third and fourth, in the meantime.
Who the fuck in their right mind would submit more than two entries?
yet you allow unlimited ammounts! this to me smells of conspiracy between 
you people. Get it sorted with another ruling, that you have a two entry 
maximum, maybe a free one would be acceptable. but these fucks who have 
10-20 entries are taking the fucking piss. Thats just my opinion.
0h yeah! while I'm here, funny fucking site!!!!!

You Bastards. I'm supposed to be working right now and I stumbled on your
twisted and morbid little site. I've just gotta get in on this. Let me know
when the next pool starts, will ya?

Thanks,

Great Blurb!  I believe you probably really captured the woman's true 
feelings for her public.  By the way, hold on to that text cuz you're going 
to need it for her sister, Dear Abby.

-Lady Die



Pool Dude,     
Let me know when the next DEADline is and I'll post some names on your site!!!    

-LO CHI MIN



Ah yes,

I just happened to notice that your esteemed panel has determined James Arnet 
to be NOT FAMOUS. OK but how could anyone not know who played Matt Dillon 
in Gunsmoke all those years. And oh yea, everyone knows the movie, The Thing. 
Well that was him too. Some times I just have to shake my head when I read some 
of the names on these lists. You should publish a picture of your panel so I 
came see what I am dealing with. 30 something Vegans, MENSA top two percent 
or what. Certainly no one over 45 years old, too bad. 

Thanks,

-Rob Rowland AKA: DXRob3



Pete Gray should make the list.  Come on, we are having a run on baseball 
players.......

Grady Martin-Nashville guitar slinger or great importance died October 
2001 overshadowed by the passing of Chet Atkins.  Played lead guitar on 
sooo many country hits of the 1950's and 1960s most notable Marty 
Robbins-El Paso, Roy Orbison's-Pretty Woman, Patsy Cline's-Crazy, Bobby 
Helms'-Jingle Bell Rock to barely scratch the surface.  Full name-Thomas

good work.

Leo McKern

That which must be obeyed.

-Nora Mitchell



Have just enjoyed looking at who everyone thinks will cark it next.  But you
may need to double check your list.  At least Betty Hutton and Richard
Widmark died years ago - and unlike Cleiburn Pell, who apparently was dead
for years before anyone told him, they seem to already know they are dead.

Thanks from some annoying pedantic sod in Australia.

-momens



I'd like to get in on the next game. What do I need to do? Dont say die.

-Dave Lavery



What about Leo McKern?

-W. Scott Monty



Thieves,

I was cruising your site and did some simple math. 15*976 is $14,640. You
give out only $2002, leaving a grand total of $12,638. Holly Molly, death
sure is profitable to those who reap.

-David J. Paredes
This is an excellent example of what's meant by the phrase "asking for trouble."
Here's our response:

Dumb Fuck-

If you're going to write to complete strangers and call them thieves, you
really should A) have at least a rudimentary understanding of the concept
of thievery, and B) have a grown-up help you with the simple math. A thief
is someone who willfully takes something belonging to someone else without
the consent of the owner (e.g. an employee who browses entertainment sites
on the internet while his boss is paying him to work). When visitors to
our website enter our games or purchase the merchandise we offer, they do
so without coercion, and with a full and accurate accounting of our costs
and profits available to them (see http://stiffs.com/faq.html#money). In
case there's no one there who can explain the numbers to you, let us tell
you that the $2002 figure you quoted is only the first of ten prizes that
are awarded. The total of said prizes is close to $3,000. Also, the entry
fees that we take in do not approach the $14,640 you came up with, mostly
because of the 3-for-the-price-of-2 deal that most entrants take advantage
of (see http://stiffs.com/pistol.html). The actual amount we grossed for
this year's Invitational is close to $10,000, give or take a few hundred.
Then there are our operating expenses (ask your boss what that means),
which will amount to approximately $3,500 for fiscal 2002. The difference
(also known as our net) is somewhere in the vicinity of $4,500, and this
is what the people who understand these things call "profit." To a small
mind like yours, this may seem like a lot of money, but whether you think
that's a bundle for us to earn or not, we cannot reasonably be called
"thieves" by anyone whose head is not jammed way, way up his ass. 
Now go fuck yourself.

Sincerely,

Zachariah Love, Commissioner
Greg Hicks, Head Bartender
and Drew Scharlatt, Deputy Bursar

We'll let you know if we hear from him again.

them all.

  his last name was slaughter.  that's way too fucking easy for you guys, and 
if you guys use some some sort of "slaughter on fifth avenue" or "like a lamb

the fact that his first name rhymed with "penis."

Sirs,

I'll be taking over a dead pool that's run for thirty years out of Syracuse NY.
We want to go electronic.  I am looking for a software package that will let
me do what you do in so far as ranking the scoring.  We offer 68 selections and 
scoring is based on age...ie...90+=1 pt. 80-89=2pts.

I enjoy your website and play as the Sacred Cowboys.  We, as a rule have 200 or 
slightly less players.  Can you find it in your cold cold hearts the opportunity 
on your input ?

-Sacred Cowboys



Not really a rookie; this sick fuck fell from your list when he changed his 
email address.  So he writes to be added to your list with his new address.  
What a stupid sick fuck.

Hello, 

Please keep me on your email list until the day I die.  Or the day after.  
Your site continues to be hilarious.  I tell all my friends about it and 
they think I'm weird until they visit it.  Now we have more participants 
in our office dead pool than in the office football pool. 

Keep up the great work.  Somehow a TV show should be in your future.  You 
could call it No Survivors or something. 

Thanks,

no receipt email even tho i clicked thru to 'welcome

them? i had some weirdness on these lists when i tried
to enter a name and it said someone was using that
name (DNR/DNI). that's where the trouble began--it
kept reloading the page and i got all confused and wet
myself. please advise....standing by.

Hey,
 
Being the dumb, unobservant, procrastinating bastard that I am,
It slipped by that I didn't save the name for my final list in the Jr.
 
When you come to my six lists (vomit_god# - WTF is up...)
the title of my last one should have been "vomit-god6 - 
WTF is up with Bob Hope? Die already.
 
If you can change it, great. If you can't, no sweat, it was my
fault, I'm an ass, etc. etc.
 
-Tony Cristaldi a/k/a  "vomit_god"



Well Gents,

This is my somewhat-annual contribution to the old mailbag. Frankly, I 
can't recall exactly when the last one was. I just figure it's been at 
least a year.

Firstly, congrats and kudos for surviving another year, especially one 
with leeches like Attorney Genital Asscrotch sniffing for "terrorists" 
in everyone's underpants. Thank Allah you haven't been identified as the 
fourth axis of evil (as cool as that sounds. Hmmm, maybe I'll start a 
punk band by that name - oh shit, other people are reading this, I better 
shut up).

To the candlelight vigil, I say this:
Lady Bird Johnson - They named a stand of Old-Growth Redwoods in Northern 
California after her. Or was it the other way around?

These are gray days with yellow and orange alert warnings, 401Ks tumbling 
like, well, tumbleweeds while CEOs get off (in more ways than one, I'm sure), 
and the beating of orc-like drums of war by a tiny-brained so-called leader 
(and no, I'm not even a democrat). Yet none of these dark shadows on society 
are fodder for the celebrity death march. Even the "promise" of an Osama bin 
Laden "dead or alive" has resulted in no more than the generation of a true-
life "Kaiser Soze". Is he dead? Is he alive? Is he either? Is he sitting in 
a hammock on a cozy Pacific island with Kenny Boy and George Senior, talking 
about the good old days? Who the fuck knows? He could be using crop circles 
to send signals to al-Qaida for all we know.

For the upcoming year, I have these predictions/thoughts/BS notions:

Scientists will discover a third state of existence, one that is neither life 
nor death, and Bob Hope will be the only resident of that state.

Saddam Hussein will be captured and extradited to the US, where it will be 
revealed, after his mask is pulled off, that in fact he's Dick Cheney (have 
you ever seen both of them at the same party? I think not.)

Sometime in the year 2003, somehow, California will be ripped-off by the state 
of Texas - again!

Wishing you a bumper crop of celebrity cadavers!
(…as long as it isn't anyone I know personally)

Yours conveniently,

-Dr. Dearth 
 (not my real name)
 (not even my real fake name)
 (in fact, I can't even remember the name I used last time (damn you JD, damn 
 you straight to hell))

 PS - No blood (or any other precious bodily fluids) for oil (at least not at 
 the current per barrel price)



Just curious --
 
Why isn't Robin Williams on your list?  Not that I wish him ill, quite the 
contrary -- certainly he's famous enough to be on your celeb list.
 
-Death's Ghoulfriend



Just a quick question, I know it's stupid and whiny. I did not receive a copy 
of my dead pool lists I submitted on Sept. 30. I did receive a copy of the charge 
of $10 and the Pistol Pete credit. I want to know if I can get a copy of my lists. 
They are:
 
The Grim Bonelli
The Grim Bonelli 2
The Grim Bonelli 3
 
Thanks and I just love your site. It is sick and sadistic. Good job.

-John M. Bonelli

I mailed the check yesterday so you should have it by Thursday hopefully.
Thanks very much for taking the time to include me after all the hard work 
picking some stiffs. I know it must be a pain in the ass dealing with 
nitwits, freaks, ex-cons, housewives, and presidents of large corporations 
that all partake in this great game....especially ones that can't follow 
simple instructions.

Anyway, this is the only dead pool i play and with good reason--you guys 
are the best.

Thanks in advance, see ya out there on the site !

Oh I get it! You created a site in which the content sucks so bad you

You Kurt Cobain was a no talent drug addict that really didn't deserve to be in 
the music business so why don't you take that self pitying asshole off of the 
bottom blurb already. Thank God he's dead. Too bad it doesn't stop them from 
releasing more of his mindless cow shit music though. Talk about whinnyass 
music. He had it so rough. HA

-Tom Ryan



Paul Wellstone

He definitely qualifies as a famous person.  Why isn't he on the list for the 
year?

(I assume it's because you are working on the ultimate blurb---but a place-holder 
would be nice.  After all, I keep thinking maybe I just DREAMED that he died.  
A death is not a death unless it's on stiffs.com, you know.)

gained celebrity status especially since joining Regis.

Thanks

Dear Zachariah

I am the producer of the Kevin Kiley show on the Fox Sports RAdio Network and 
I was wondering if Zachariah Love is available for an interview on Monday, Dec 
30th for a phone interview. You were on last year and you were great. It will 
only take 10-12 minutes, and we will promote stiffs.com and talk about the 2003 
death pool.  Thanks for your time and I hope to hear from somone soon.

dearest personnel,

i realize you are very busy, but the things insists upon giving me error 
message number three when i try to pay by mastercard.  help!

Dearest kind people,

I got the word 'error' along with the number three in paranthesese (sp?) and 
a sentence informing me that the 'action' could not be completed.  upon re-
attempting to submit my lists, i was wittily informed that my lists' names were 
already in use... suggesting that the infernal device has learnt my lists and 
whatnots.  suggestions?

got a blank reciept

Hi,

  I somehow managed to screw up the Maravich thing and in my effort to fix
it, ended up paying twice for the same two lists. I apologize for my
carelessness and hope it can be adjusted. Thanks.

-Steve Rosoff



I've tried to submit this list four times - if there happens to be four charges on 
my CC, I'm sure you guys will make it right.  Hope I can get this submitted 
in time.  There's a bunch of really fuckin' old people on my list who could 
croak at any moment.  Please hurry...
