Hope Sinks
Bob Hope, once more prevalent on the battlefield than dysentery and sucking chest wounds, has died at the age of 100. An entertainment legend, Hope's career spanned 7 decades, and encompassed every avenue of American entertainment from vaudeville to movies to radio to television. Hope had the distinction of meeting and mocking every president since Franklin Roosevelt. But it is his time spent entertaining troops that brought him the most acclaim and the most satisfaction. The USS Bob Hope and the USAF Spirit of Bob Hope reflect the mutual respect for the man who visited troops in World War II, Korea, Vietnam and the Gulf and countless military bases around the world. In 1997, Congress named him an honorary veteran for his work with the USO.
A flurry of activity on the leaderboard, as everyone now has at least one hit. With this, the 10th hit of the year, we surpass last year's total with 4 months to go. Before delving into the details, Keith, Michelle, Bob Hope was 100 years old. The average male life expectancy is about 75 years old. Let me explain the concept of "borrowed time."
The leaderboard:
1st Me 4 dead, 33.88888889 points
2nd Conni 4 dead, 23.88888889 points
3rd Kirsti 3 dead, 26.22222222 points (tie)
4th Greg's Wily Veterans 3 dead, 26.22222222 points
5th Keith 3 dead, 21.66666667 points
