Dead Letter Office, 2003


     Great. Now look. The year's fucking over, and you know it's going to be, like, a month before they even get next year's thing posted.      What- ever, just take me to the newest letters, okay? Y'know, this is a bunch of total fucking bullshit.

Zach,
 
After conducting detailed research, I have come to the following conclusion:  
I suck at celebrity dead pools.
 
"What?" you say.  "SeaPepto, don't be so hard on yourself!"
 
No, it's true.  I suck.  Here are the statistics in black and white:

10. Annette Funicello

2002
1. Bob Hope
2. Dudley Moore (9 Pts.)
3. Ronald Reagan
4. Osama bin Laden
5. Pope John Paul II
6. Richard Pryor
7. Strom Thurmond
8. Johnny Oates
9. Ted Williams (2 Pts.)
10. Darryl Strawberry

2003
1. Warren Zevon
2. Carol Shields
3. Bob Hope
4. Ronald Reagan
5. Pope John Paul II
6. Richard Pryor
7. Jerry Lewis
8. Johnny Oates
9. Strom Thermond
10.Zsa Zsa Gabor

Through 2002:
Total number of entries:  40
Total number of unique entries: 26
Total number of stiffs (restricted to their year of entry/death): 7
Total number of stiffs regardless of the year they were entered:  9
Best year:  1999 with 2 stiffs and 18 points
Worst year:  2001 with 1 stiff and 6 points
Average stiffs over four years:  1.75 stiffs
Average points over four years:  12
Including my 2003 entry:
Number of celebrities entered five years running:  3 (Hope, the Pope and the Dope)
Average location of Bob Hope in my lists: 3.0
Average location of Pope John Paul II in my lists: 3.0
Average location of Ronald Reagan in my lists: 5.6
Number of times Katharine Hepburn has been my alternate:  5
Number of times Katharine Hepburn has been needed as an alternate:  0
Number of times Katharine Hepburn has died:  0
Number of dot-coms I have worked during this time:  4
Number that have appeared on fuckedcompany.com:  4 
 
So there you have it.  I suck.  
 
But I keep entering Zach.  I do.  And you know why?
 
Because I believe that together we can build a better dead pool.
 
So here's to 2003! 
 
Fuck you Hope, Pope and Dope.  I'll see you all in hell.
 
Yours in death,
 
-SeaPepto



dude,
you're better if not possibly as good as crack.

literally.

-SlotnickSmunch

ps. fuck my mother, but get her drunk first.



pss my dad is dead and that's okay but you should know he used to say she 
looked like a basketball.

Just heard you on the radio....I was in transit, and could not get in in time 
it's Jan 1.....can I pay double?.....let me know...

-john



You know that part about nobody can screw up the Pistol Pete 3 for 2 thing?
It looks like I did.

My 3 entries were Dwyers Death Watch 1, 2 and 3 with the $15 Visa charge on:

Invoice # : 202365202019274
Invoice # : 202365204024593
Invoice # : 202365200156613

Any problem eliminating/crediting any one of the invoices $15 so that the
total comes to $30 rather than $45?

-Jim Dwyer



Okay, I had to look and to be quite honest, this site LICKS BALLS 

-MommyEdmo



Has the new game started yet? 

-JFeauto



Gentlemen

I have an iMac which runs OS nine point something and I use Netscape 6. If i 
move around on the stiffs.com homepage, Netscape shuts itself down. Weird, insn't 
it? Have you heard of this problem before? Should I download a newer Netscape? 
Or what? Furtunately, I can enter the stiffs.com page via a link in one of your 
"dispatches"- on the other hand: what for? since the 2003 lists aren't even posted 
yet.....

Have a very happy 2003,

-Christoph (Grim Rapper)
 p.S.: I completely forgot to play in 2002 (your invitation to the March Lee jr 
 three days late didn't help in that respect). Obviously, all my perennial favourites 
 folded their umbrelllas during that year. Man, I pioneered George Harrison - I 
 knew it as far back as 1999! I expect the ladies and gentlemen on my 2003 list 
 now to wait until I pause again. If I won't does that mean they get to live forever?



Mr. Love...I seem to have misplaced my list where may I find it on the site?

-Jeff Wilkins



Good Morning,
Nice job with the changes to the entry forms for the 2003 tourney. My brother and 
I have been playing for about 5 years, the entry process was the easiest it has ever 
been. Thanks!

stupid list and you guys just ignore him?  What's the matter with you?  And 
what about all the losers that picked him?  Don't they count?  I'm just pissed 
he's not on my list….at least I don't think he is anyway.  It's the 20th and 
you lazy bastards having posted anything yet…
 
Can you send me a job application?  At least take a look at my resume?

-Nav & Joyce



Ok maybe I’m crazy but I thought this game started on jan 1.  I submitted my 
entries and my payment and the site still hasn’t been updated.  I know you get 
around 1000 entries but it’s been a month already.  Was I wrong in thinking the 
game started jan 1 and if so, when does it start?  If it started jan 1 when will 
your site be updated??

-kg20gt



Zach,

Congratulations and thanks for getting ’03 up and running.  Finally, I can 
stop checking the site 8 or 9 times a day in anticipation of this year’s Lee 
Atwater.   But, that’s not to say I won’t be visiting 8 or 9 times a day...
now it will be to play with your newest tool of death, the Whatificator.  
Oh man, brilliant and evil to the core!

And so begins a new year...just like baseball season, everybody’s an optimist 
and everybody’s got a chance to win.

Now if only that fucker, Bob Hope would go once and for all!

That's what sets you apart from the other pools out there--attention to detail.  
Keep up the good work!

On my list, ALBRECHT SAYS DIE DIE DIE 2,  Spiro Agnew was already dead 
already.  Yet he was on the select-o-matic thingy.  Therefore, shouldn't he be 
taken off my list and my alternate, Eddie Albert, go in his place.  You guys 
should've taken Agnew off the list.  Remember, I'm the one who pointed out that 
Bob Hope wasn't on the select-o-matic 2 yrs. ago.  You guys should take a little 
more care in your work performance.

-larry



Looks like things are pretty well caught up now.

Somehow I screwed up the 3 for 2 thing and my credit card got charged $45
instead of $30.  All three entries are "Dwyer's Death Watch"  1, 2 and 3.

How about just sending me a t-shirt and we'll call it even.  Size  XXL-

-Jim Dwyer



Hi, I was wondering if Billy Joel (singer) could be added to the stiffs.com list. 
I would also like him to be on my Lee Jr. list, so how does that work? Do I have 
to wait for him to be added before he can be on my list? Do you reply to my email 
with the Famous or Not-Famous decision? Please let me know.
THX,

-Wig.



I have to tell you,I am sitting here sick with Chronic fatigue immune deficiency

Hi,

For the first time I received a "Test Drive/Receipt Confirmation" email after 
sending in six "Jr." entries. I assume (yes go ahead say it) that means all is 
okie dokie. Sorry to bother you, I just feel good about my lists. Which by the 
way are all under "Don Pescado".

Thank You!

Hi Zach,
Just a short note to say hey, what up?  If you have any spare time, let me know 
what's up with you.  I really would love to see you someday soon.  Guess what?  I'm 
taking my son to Vegas in April first time we've been there since I left In Dec 
1993.  He is finally gonna see where he was born.  One of my waitress friends that 
I still keep in touch with is turning 40 and her husband is throwing a party for her.  
They really want me to go, so I'm gonna drive, just me and my kid...he will be 11
 years old in March! He is only 6 inches shorter than me (ha ha)
Hope everything is going good for you.  Write back soon

-Zoe xx



Is it possible to postmark an envelope today, to enter the dead pool.

Thanks

-WATLEYB8



On the contest rules, it states that the deadline is 2-28-02. Am I to assume 
that that is supposed to say 2-28-03?

-Michelle Hampton



Ok, here comes the whining! I tried submitting a list for the Lee Jr. tonight 
and when I was finished making the list I pressed the key to charge it to my 
credit card. It said that I had the wrong address, so I gave it another shot. It 
said the same thing so I figured I would come back later when I could spell! 
I just tried to submit it again and now it states that it was a duplicate transac- 
tion. Does this mean that the first one was accepted after all? Heck, I tried. 
Save me! I submitted the list under Joan Vatalaro. The name of the list 
(mundanely enough) was called Team Formalin. Can you let me know what 
the status of the list is now? I have no time left to submit another time:(  
Many thanks in advance.

-ygraine



Hi Zach.

Does this receipt mean that I have 10 teams or 11? The last name on my list
of teams appears to be Gr (which should have been Grow Your Own Furniture).
If this list exists that would make a total of 11 teams entered which I believe 
should come to $45 so I'm confused.

The name of my team that doesn't show in the receipt at all is "Daddy These
Rubber Pants Are Hot" so if the SOM has a team like that that is attached to
nobody, it's mine.

I entered 12 teams but it's my fault for not triple checking my receipts at
time of purchase. When I was done entering I noticed that my bill was $40
and I thought it should have been $45.

I did bad. I don't envy your headaches in the coming weeks. Hopefully you
won't get too many email responses like mine.

I don't see my entry on the Lee Jr., and yes, it was placed in time, feb. 24, 
I do believe.  List name is mydane's choice.  What happened?

-MYDANE



My check is on the way!

Don't fuck it up again or I'll quit and then you'll die.

Does that mean you would win?

Zach--

I don't understand all the fuss over Dave DeBusschere.  The guy batted a 
career 1-for-22.  That's .045--with a walk in 23 plate appearances.  Although, 
to his credit, he did have a .962 fielding average, .007 better than the 
league average for his position.

He does complete a triple for 1963 ChiSox pitchers--following on the heels of 
Fritz Ackley (died 5/22/02) and Hoyt Wilhelm (8/23/02).

Cheers,

Hello:
My name is Stephen Nover. I recently came across your site and thought it 
would make a good story. I write for a Web site called TheRx.com. It's a 
popular sports gaming betting site. We have an active posting forum and I 
think a story on your site and contest would draw a lot of comment and 
perhaps bring you some new contestants.
 
My questions are:
 
1. How long have you been doing this?
 
2. How do you defend yourself when people say running a dead pool contest is 
in extremely bad taste? Do you feel creepy doing this or have any moral guilt?
 
3. What's usually the winning score?
 
4. How did you get the idea to run this kind of contest?
 
I think this would make a great off-the-wall story. I can be reached at [deleted
for privacy] and my phone number is [deleted for privacy].

Thanks,

-Stephen

Thanks again for your time,

I host a morning radio show out of Chicago. I'm interested in doing an 
interview tomorrow morning about dead pools. Thursday is Bob Hope's 100th

please respond with a contact number. Sorry about the short notice. I'm 
waiting for the first email. I'll have that person live on the air tomorrow.

Warren Zevon. How dare you make fun of the illness of such an influencial and 
brilliant entertainer? Don't you sick fucks have a life? Apparently not since 
you are obsessed with death. This is a horrid thing to do and personally, I 
think the owner of this site is the one that should drop dead.
 
Assholes.

Pretty good day for you over at Stiffs.com eh?

Dropping like flies today...

-Mick Crouch



Just an inquiry. I was looking for a blurp on the dead as of tuesday JAG lawyer.
(Nick Brumby) I don't remember his actual name. Anyway, I believe the loser has 
only been in one other thing, a cheesy ass commercial for a floor vac where a 
kangaroo hopped on the floor and stained it. Did ya miss that death. 
Thanks, and great site.

-Matt



just looking through any thing dumb I could come up with, really.
and well I found it .
I personally love the site called rotten.com.
if you happen to know anymore sited like this one,
please do me a great big favor and keep me entertained.
My husband will most likely appreciate this of you.

I just wanted to note my surprise that Reagan's secretary of treasury, Donald

Big fan of the game.  You forgot to list the death of Michael Jeter.  
Died March 29, 2003.  Appeared on TV in Evening Shade, played Mr. Noodle

and more.

-Gene Gardner



I'm not on any lists or anything, but I just figured there was one person you 
could add to your stiffs list.

Trevor Goddard

He died on June 7th, apparently of a drug overdose in his home.  He's had a 
decent television career as well as making some fun appearances in movies such 
as Mortal Kombat (as Kano) and is also in this summer's movie "pirates of the 
carribean".

Just thought you might wanna add him.

We just wanted to write to invite you to consider joininf our new "Affiliate

We would really like to associate ourselves with Stiffs.com as it seems like a 
natural relationship.

Came across this site while researching potential stiffs for my office
deadpool.  Having won the office pool for the last three years in a row
(not because I'm any good at identifying soon-to-be corpses, but because
the competition here sucks) I think I'd like to try my luck on an 
"international" level.  Clearly missed the boat for 2003, but am wondering
how I get invited to the big dance next year?
 
Thanks,

Death Dudes,

Bob Stump's blurb says that in 1998, he announced Bob Hope's death from
the Senate floor.  It was actually from the House floor; Stumpy wasn't a
senator.

If Warren Zevon, the Pope, Barney Kessel, Ronald Reagan, Brooke Astor
and Leni Riefenstahl would quit dicking around, I can still win this thing.  

-Bill J.



damn! you're verbose!

I been searching all over your site and, after HOURS of
reading, have yet to find the "list of points" so that
I can "pretend-play" along and see what my list would
be like.

Do you have a "list of points" for each celeb published?

-Todd



three questions:

1.  I already signed a petition for one candidate. Am I allowed to sign
more than one?

2.  How many signatures do you have already?

3.  Will you still put up Stiffs games while you're Gov?

4.  How much will you pay me per signature if I collect say, a thousand?

i was wondering if you have a mailing list that will keep ppl updated as
to who is dying, for example johnny oats dies and i'm not really up on
johnny oats how would i know if he died.  some of the ppl on the lists are
pretty far removed from the media and might not make major news coverage.

To Stiffs.com -
  I love the Bone Orchard blurbs - quite amusing stuff.  A couple of ideas 
came to mind for a couple of them -
 
Tal Farlow ('98) - Tal's Farlow, indeed...
 
John Entwistle (6/27/02) - Now truly The Quiet One
(I felt that "Won't get fooled again" is better reserved for Pete Townshend, 
as it was his tune.  "The Quiet One", on the other hand, was a John-penned 
tune that Who fans know well).
 
  Just throwin' it out there.  Keep up the great work!

   Hi Guys: I'm playing both games but wondering why while you've
updated the Lee Atwater site by crossing off Warren Zevon and then a few
days later Johnny Cash. Whoever is supposed to be updating the Lee Jr.
site hasn't even gotten around to crossing off Zevon yet. Is the next
game still starting in Oct? When is that list due in cause I have to
mail in my check. Hope to hear from you soon!

Hi commissioner,
Long time no talk. Just wanted to thank you for the 2nd place check for the
past Lee Jr. I opened my envelope from you today and deposited it.

I also wanted to thank you for the credit card that you wrapped with the
autozone receipt. I know you have a reputation for just wanting to take our
money so it's nice to see you giving out something extra. It doesn't
surprise me you'd issue cards with cystic fibrosis on them; if I win I hope
for a brain tumor card. Let me know if I can use it elsewhere or just for
stiffs.com stuff. I keep meaning to get a mug but never do.

Anyway thanks again and assuming there's no more games this year hope to
play again in January.

Sincerely,

To the creator(s) of stiffs.com...
Your website is about as classy, sophisticated and proper as Joseph Stalin on a
bad hair day.  But I guess honor, etiquette and duty is not what you stand for (not
unlike millions of others out there).  I could go on with examples (judgemental
comes to mind), but you're not of the mentality to comprehend your own profound 
loss(es).  GOD is surely greiving over your infantile vulgarity and what you
obviously find amusing with some of your shameless comments to the dearly
departed.  Guess what?  It ain't amusing!  (I've been a successful stand-up comic
so I should know.)  Just remember, you too will be judged when your time comes.
Of that, we can all be sure.  Signed,

I see you don't have a blurb yet for Jack Elam. I'd suggest using something
from imdb's bio:

Made an infamous career with his eerie, immobile eye, which was caused by a
fight with another kid at the age of 12. It happened during a Boy Scout meeting
when another boy took a pencil, threw it, and it jabbed his eyeball.

Or perhaps something simple like:

Where's that crazy eye looking now, Jack?

Just a thought...

I thought this would be a funny entertaining site but please don't put stuff
like the rape of a 13 year old girl as entertainment (on your weird news,

jokes made out of that.

Thanx ,

I'm sorry, I can't quite find the exact website with the rape story on,
though there are a lot of pretty similar "bad taste" stories on "The
back page" section of http://stiffs.com, (drag your mouse over the
"Featured Features" button and it's on the menu), including a
16-year-old boy who died from overusing deodorant.  I can't begin to
think how his family would feel at seeing the story of it in a "black
humour" section  Some of the stories are in good humour and quite funny
but there are a few which are just sick and unpleasant, I don't know if
you could pass my complaint on to the stiffs.com webmaster. 

 I like the site and you shouldn't take this as my complete opinion of
it, there are some genuinely funny things on it, but there are lines we
have to draw with everything.

Thanks for your help.

Hey Zach,

You still don't have anything about Penny Singleton.  If you can't come with

This is how Christmas is gonna go down this year.....casual

Gather at my house around 4 in the afternoon....just in time to see the garden
and the reindeer tracks.  This meeting time is to happen on Thursday, Dec. 25th.
around 4 in the pm....just like I mentioned above.  We'll sit around and drink
some nog and attempt to debate and resolve the facts surrounding the absolute
difference between apple juice and apple cider.  After a time I imagine we'll
start to get hungry.  Maybe we'll have a little buffolo mozarrello soft cheese,
wrapped in olive oil soak sun dried tomotoes.  Just a little nibble to keep the
big hunger at bay.  Perhaps will snack on creme freshe dotted with with black or
red caviar contained softly, yet securely in a tiny tiny pastry shell.......in
it's enitiry a small and ultimately stisfying mouthfull. Later, yes, yes, NOT
too much later (5-10 minutes OK!?) we will toddle off to the formal dinning
room....the room with the proper dinning  table and appropriate dinning chairs.
No white folding chairs inadvertantely left here by Abby Rents, No old dusted
off rusted "outside" chair that have suddenely found their way back at the
table.  No left over strudy hunter green or white white heavy plastic fake
"Adorrondeck" chairs no matter how hip and cool they look in the Smith & Hawkins
catalogue.  But grow-up chairs for grown up us.  A nice centerpiece....yuletime
themes evident.

The warmth of lots of candles and heat from the fireplace.  The usual food...............
brined free range 100 %organic Buddhist turkey (his feet never had direct contact
with the earth), oyster/chestnut stuffing, Sunny's sunny mashed potatoes, roasted
sweet potatoes, fresh petite peas (we have to have something green....beside the
glorious Green Jello!), chunky orange enhanced cranberry sauce, cinnamon laced
pippin apple sauce, Sunny Meyer's Great Turkey Gravy that has won every turkey
gravy competition she has ever entered it in!  That's our Sunny!!!!!Yes and
there will be giblet and giblet-less gravy. Hot crunchy roll straight out of
the oven waiting to be slathered with fresh Irish or French Butter.  And of
course the usual abundance of pies of apple, pies of pumpkin, pies of pecans
accompanied by large bowls of freshly whipped cream.  There might even be
surprise ingredients in the whipping cream!  Coffee, tea, espresso, latte and
all the brandy you might want .Oops I almost forgot the ever-present and always
inspirational Stollen (with the marzipan piece in the middle) accompanied by
that old old old standard the fruit cake(that's for you mom)  Let me know if
you going to be here.  The only requirement IS participation in charades!!!!!
Not too much to ask for all that fun  and foooooood and drinkkkkk.   Call me

seventh year with stiffs.com. Maybe "7" is a lucky number. The Select-O-Matic
was purring like a contented kitten when I placed the entries this morning.

The pool has to be a lot of work for the guys in the home office. I appreciate the
effort. It's a lot of fun for the folks who just enter then hang the list on the 
refrigerator to check the morning paper every day with grim anticipation and
morbid excitement.

Happy New Year and best regards from Philly, former home of Wilt Chamberlain,
Pelle Lindbergh, Richie Ashburn, and Leon Tose.
