I thought Al died a while back.

He's only 83, why he's not on my list.

Anyone but Reid.

CNN is full of shtein, the man was 95.

Betty Friedan is dead too. The 2006 corpses are piling up.

Noted For: actor; "Car 54, Where Are You?" (Officer Leo Schnauser, 1961-63), "The Munsters" (Grandpa, 1964-66). He claimed to have been born in 1910 when auditioning for "The Munsters" because he was younger than the actress who was playing his daughter.
CNN is full of shtein.  A lot.  But not this time.

Points rule from Ghoulpool:

Quote
2. Age Points: Under 20 = 75 points 20 - 50 = 50 points 51 - 80 = 20 points 81+ = 5 points

Luckily, no matter who's right, same points awarded.  Good thing -- we don't need a Ghoulpool controversy a'brewin....
The drawback to marital longevity is your wife always knows when you're really interested in her and when you're just trying to bury it.

So there's controversy over how old Grandpa Munster was?

From reading the obituaries, that sounds just the way old Al Lewis would like it.

RIP, you old coot.

Lewis' son says  he was 82.

Not that it matters, but here's a quote:
QuoteThe actor was widely reported to have been born in 1910, but his son Ted Lewis said Saturday that his father was born in 1923.

How the hell would his son know?  He wasn't there.

It matters to me because my death pool awards points as 100 minus the age. I'm the only guy who had him, so if he was younger I'm all for it.

Wikipedia says, "At the time of his death, many sources including Lewis' son gave his year of birth as 1923. Lewis' own admission, school leaving records, and various other details of his life strongly indicate he was born in 1910. His son, however, has argued he was born in 1923, making him eighty-two years old at the time of his death."

Some R&B Singer

Excerpt:
Quote'Ain't No Stoppin' Us' singer dead
Gene McFadden, half of McFadden & Whitehead, was 56

I remember they did a version of that song in 1980 for the Phillies when they went to the World Series.
